Guest INASNT Posted December 4, 2003 Share Posted December 4, 2003 Thats farked up gordo. I got more bad news for Gordo. The QLD government is following the vic tosser labour government and putting in a whole lot of fixed speed cameras in Brisbane and Gold Coast even tho the vic ones were found to be faulty. Looks like the qld premieris even more of a ***wit than bracks (if that is possible) Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/29141-and-you-thought-gordos-bad-luck-had-ended/#findComment-598406 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamezilla Posted December 4, 2003 Share Posted December 4, 2003 JEEBUS! - I think there's a Victorian curse out on that car. Glad to hear you OK - but sh*t, we wanted to hear tales from your trip involving Danish hitchhikers in bikinis - not this. Hope the rest of the ride is super-uneventful.

predator Posted December 8, 2003 Share Posted December 8, 2003 hehe.. nah, don't want to sell it at this point.. its too much fun having a car like that around here, and these things are when i'm *not* being stupid which sucks the most. Panels can easily be replaced. Anyhow, here are a couple of pix. It looks better now with the door at least. $600 and it should be good as new, could have been worse. Shouldn't have stopped on the highway - stupid i know, i should know better and i've done plenty of highway driving before. Just one of those things. Stopped 'cause i thought i heard a ticking noise, and also thought i'd check the oil, water, etc. Unfortunately i just left the door the slightest bit open, not even what you'd consider that open and i was only there for a few seconds. Car wasn't parked that close to the edge of the road either. This huge road train (double semi - huge ****er!) comes by, i think "jeez, thats big".. and as the 2nd "carriage" goes past, the backdraft rips the door forward a bit. I can't run back to close it or i would have got slammed myself, and then wooosh.. before i know it the door blows out to right angles and SMASH.. rips the window clean off (goodbye tint.. meh, it was scratched anyhow), bends the door into pretty much an L-shape, and buggers the door trim. So I'm just in shock at that point. Truck just keeps driving, not sure whether he heard or just didn't give a shit (i think the later). So about 100km from Albury where i was meeting with Kamikazee to drop off his amp, don't know what to do so, **** it, i get in the car, and cruise down the Hume for 100km holding the door with one arm and driving with the other.. hoping like hell no cop makes me get it towed ($$$$), but i was lucky and about an hour later (going 110km/hr like that..lol) i make it into town, with everybody looking strangely at me. Just watch out if you're ever on the highway, 'cause trucks couldn't give a flying shit about any car. If you're in the way you're just a hassle for them. Can't thank Kamikazer33 enough for helping me. Without him, would have really ****ed up my whole trip, and I wasn't holding much hope of fidning a 33 door, and was thinking one would have to be shipped up, etc but it did work out and i didn't lose anytime in the end. There was a good Japwreck place Justin knew about, so we went there and they had all sorts of half cuts and stuff. We put the door on that night, and its been fine ever since. $300 for a whole door is a bargain too Anyhow, i'm here staying at my mates just back from Broadbeach until i find a place to share in Brisbane. Its awesome!! Some slight damage to my car doesn't really worry me when i'm doing what i really want to do with my life..
