a sad day for a fello TNer

welp, sold my pride and joy, figured id share my misery .






away she goes





i truly feel empty. i got that car when i was 17 and it has been my pride and joy since. that car had the power to change me as a person. some of yall may understand what owning a old muscle car is like, and it gives u a feeling that no other car in the world can give. i just watched a piece of me roll away on a trailer just now. so now shes gone and all i have to show for it is a massive wad of cash, vut id give it back in a hartbeat if i could.

well with out getting long winded, im a college student inbetween schools and working full time. so i have limited space, time, money and resources needed to keep up a car like that. most of the cash is going back into the camry to get it in a condition to get through 2 years without any major problems. so its not all bad, more stuff for the camry

well I was always taught you try to avoid towing a vehicle with it's drive wheels on the pavement, harder on the drive terrain... Hence rwd trucks and cars being towed with the rear wheels and fwd wit the front. But like I said, if I was them I would have spend the 70 - 100 and rented the full trailer like my uncle and I did to get the sonoma to my house

I'm mot saying this will help but, I lost my pride and joy in a car accident. At least you can see it again and it won't be in pieces.
