    That is a cry for help, Matt!

    You know auto insurance is out of control when you need to do this in order to get a quote from Hagerty.

    With the economy in the crapper, Joe the carpenter decided to do his own bodywork after the accident. Not that he should have though.

    HA – I wonder if that wooden bumper (transom) meets the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) Five-Star Crash Test Rating?

    I like the custom splash rails. Next payday he’s going to have the name painted on the transom with gold leaf… What do you think he will name it?

    With the added weight I bet the car can now only do 45MPH….he’ll need more than 2X8’s if he gets in front of me at that speed.

    Speechless.

    After we humans evolved from the ape we discovered how to create the cure for polio and how to build and paint the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel. Two amazing items of millions.

    After looking at this monstrosity though, it is evident that we indeed have not rolled that far away from the old oak tree.

    The gold leaf name on the back:

    Talk about taking revenge on an innocent tree… Next time, I hope the driver looks in the rearview mirror. This just didn’t need to happen!

    There goes my gas milage. Does it leak in the rain until it has a chance to swell?
