Details: I'm north bound on I35 in heavy traffic with a good distance between me and a van in front of me. I see the brake lights coming on ahead and I'm slowing. At the same time, a large pickup is zooming up the on ramp next to me. He cuts in front of me and hits his brakes. He first hits the van in front of him, then I hit him. The truck and MB are both in a nose dive. I cut to the right but not fast enough. My bumper goes under his. Officer writes it up as two accidents. He cites me and the driver in front of me for following too close. If anything, I wasn't following close enough or he couldn't have had room to cut me off.

Last summer a member from Northeast had loaned his son the 300d and it got SERIOUSLY creamed in plano. Wiskydan had his friend who is a bodyman up at a chevy dealer in McInney i think fix it--and the crash parts came from my 85 300d and some other that he cut the unitbody structure out of---This car was MANGLED and most would not have tried to fix it. I got the radiator/cooler/condenser from that car and the rest from the 83 cd to get yours back in order--if someone can find that thread--it was a teal green badly F--edd up car.
