Well, I sure have been thinking about this place for a long time and just wanted to drop in and say howdy. This past Dec 19th was 4 years that our 68 Bird was rear ended and put down by the illegal that we now fondly refer to as Maria Garcia (real name) who has since been deported and her husband is now in US Federal Prison for life on child porn and child rape charges. Yea nice family huh. Meanwhile their 5 US Citizen children all live the the oldest sibling here in town. Wow, what a crazy mess!
Anyway, fortunately for us good ole illegal Maria & Jose amazingly had decent auto ins. much to everybody's surprise! My wife Tammy ended up having to have her back surgery redone due to the accident as the surgery she had was only a year old when we were hit at 45mph from behind while sitting still waiting for the draw bridge to reopen as some of you may remember.
Oddly enough we now own a home less than a mile from that bridge thanks to Maria Garcia. Her ins. co. settled two weeks before the four year anniversary (in FL the ins. co. have 48 month waiting period for trial by jury) and just as our attorney said, they rolled over and paid out policy limits to both of us which then forced our ins. co. (which happened to be the same) to kick in and pay out under insured motorist (only because I just happen to check the box for it and paid the $7/month extra by dumb luck. Had her ins. co. (which is the same as ours duh) only paid out one dollar less than policy limit, then the under insured on ours would not have kicked in. Shows you how stupid these ins. co. can be, But because her case manager and ours did not communicate they did not realize we had the same ins. co. until AFTER we accepted their offer.
Anyway, it's all said and done and we now own a home again after losing ours to Wells Fargo and the illegal foreclosure game that they played, And after being a lifelong anti-law suite kinda guy and getting rear ended by an illegal, I figured you know what, I am sick of getting "f-ed" over and we sued Wells Fargo for the forgery and we won! So yea, it's been a crazy four years but things went from really bad to decent. We now OWN our home and we now OWN our very first brand new car!
Sorry it's not a First Gen Firebird obviously. But, it is a muscle car and I can still drive for a little while as I have to go every six months to have my one eye tested as it is barely passing the test right now...

We have done a TON of mods (yes I know, not bone stock like the ole Bird, that's for sure) LOL and I have a Shaker hood coming next week and she goes in for a supercharger in the fall if I can still drive and custom HemiOrange leather interior as well!
