Re: beaterX project thread

Just been ripping around in this thing here and there. Last week, on New Year's Eve, my brother was in town so I let him borrow the truck and I took the evo. NBD, just another day. I got a call from a friend and his wife was stranded in south Minneapolis and I had borrowed his VW/Audi cable...I happened to have it in my car and was way closer than him so I hauled ass over there since it was like -11°F out.

I parked on a corner and after I sat down in her car to see what was happening, a small horror unfolded behind me.





This bus was turning the corner and totally clipped beaterX.



You can see the scrap marks along the whole back half of the rear section of the double-length bus....unreal.


Quarter panel is gouged pretty good, bumper cover is fucked.....yea. Dealing with Metro Transit is seriously a PITA. I think I will zip-tie stitch the bumper section back together for now and keep driving it.

2013. Not my favorite year.
