Wayne seems to have the right attitude about it. Looks like he isn't getting his repaired though.

Good luck and I will spend a few searching for some parts for ya.

Actually i just sent him an extra woodgrain steering wheel that i had laying around and he said if there was anything i needed down the road just let him know, i guess Karma is working for me this time.    

I sent him an e-mail, thanks Stu.

A survivor car I'd be shooting for NOS parts too.  Sure sad to see those pics.

So what are the rules for a survivor? I heard that if you have any repaints, or new parts, it is no longer considered a survivor for judging purposes.
How do NOS parts, and/or repairs fit into the definition of a survivor?

It's about 80-85% of the original paint (if it's a vinyl top, you take that into consideration as well in the overall exterior variable) and I believe pretty much all the interior. Of course, original motor and tranny need to be in the car.... If the hood was the only thing to be replaced, paint-wise, it may be concerned.......... it'll be a tough call but plausible.

That totally sucks Paul. Hope you are able to find what you need. Sounds like you have a good start just by reading the responses from everyone.

Wish I had something you could use.

Yea, right! NOT!!! 

FYI, I got my hood back from the bead blaster Tuesday night. Now i just gotta fix the dings and paint it.

Well, that is rotten luck.   At least you didn't get hurt or go off the road.

Hope you can get her back together soon. I will be curious to see how Hagerty handles the claim as I have them as well. Just when I was getting the courage to start driving mine more you go and give me this scare. JK

  yes keep us updated on the insurance angle

[twodko]

Paul, that's just awful man! Thankfully you're OK. I have a couple driver's side grille "C" moldings but that's not going to help much. You can have them if you want. Hagerty will treat you right, I insure through them and you'll have no worries. You may have seen these but in "parts for sale" there are 2 freshly restored complete 69 grille assemblies so please take a look. I'll scour my shop and see if I might have anything else you can use. The only up side to this besides your being OK is venison steaks? Good luck buddy.

[lukendan]

Wow...That makes me ill. Glad your ok as well. Nice chat'in with you. I look forward to you getting back on the road soon.

[grdprx]

WTF!  That's no good man!

All i had for knives on me was my little pocket Gerber Shortcut on my key chain and i wasnt going to try and cut the back straps out with that thing.  I should have grabbed my buck knife when i was back home and stopped back and cut them out.      

And thanks for all the help everyone!  I have had numerous messages and e-mails from members telling me where to get parts that they have found already.  You guys are good people.         

Paul

Ya know moparstu, i could sure use a 68 Dodge Camper special to go pick up all the parts i need.   let me work that into my estimate somehow...

[Just 6T9 CHGR]

Man Paul, really sorry to see this...are you going to try and save the outer sheetmetal & possibly just do spot respraying?   

[Vainglory, Esq.]

Man Paul, really sorry to see this...are you going to try and save the outer sheetmetal & possibly just do spot respraying?   

If it's possible you probably should, right?  I mean to keep the survivor status in place?

[Charger-Bodie]

That really sucks Paul! It just sucks.

[TruckDriver]

Awwwwww man! That sucks!!!

[nh_mopar_fan]

That sucks. Hope the insurance goes smoothly.

Yes, as of right now i will try to keep as much of the cars original condition intact and undisturbed.

[Matthan]

I hope the deer is ok.

[PocketThunder]

I hope the deer is ok.

He's doing just fine on my dinner plate!
