![]() I just got a 240 about a month ago. I never drove stick before either, so i learned on it. well i had it parkedoutside on a hill. i didnt put it in gear, but i had the ebrake up. It went rolling down into trashcans, then hit a suv then into one of those huuuge metal dumpsters. The exterior damage is fuckin bad. It was also leaking lot of fluid, i think its from the radiator. the car still drove and i brought it back up the hill onto the driveway. im going to take pics tomorow morning. this fucking sucks.

just consider it a lesson learned. Next time turn the wheels toward the curb, or away, depending on how you're parked.

Man i had a lousy day today too. Not to steal ur thread; my friend drove my racing kart and ended up slamming into my dad's truck. f0cked up the side of the truck, f0cked up my kart, and f0cked up his knee. I ended up having to take him to the emergency room.
Today sucks... i barely got to use that kart too ![]() |

ahah I didnt say i cant drive stick well, I just had to learn how to on my 240.
I decided to go through the insurance instead of me paying for it. Now the insurance is gona pay for the suv, and my insurance will only go up a couple hundered dollars a year.

how about a door and back quarter panel from the junkyard + front end conversion? i'd keep it and fix it up, in the long run itll be worth it. if you dont have the skrilla for it now, just wait!

Yah try to hit up the junkyard...find a rear quarter panel and door skin...then just get a silvia front end conversion...prolly cost you just as much as pulling a front end off a junk yard.

Guys, rear 1/4 pannels are not easy. that is a LOT of body work. Nadies car was hit back there and it is gonna cost Major $$$$$$ to fix. Hers is NO WHERE near that bad.
Also, did you check the frame for any damage? whatever you do with it, good luck

Im pretty sure there is no damage to the frame. I was planing on getting new fenders and a new front bumper anyways... I was also gona just leave the back fender the way it is for the time being. I talked to the owner of the suv i hit, and he said hes gona get an estimate tomorow. Im hoping its less than $500.
