Well, State Farm Insurance got to look over the "dimpled"
hail damaged 96 ES SHO V8 of mine today. Quick service,
they wrote me a check for over $4000 on the spot for the damage.
I am in the process of getting estimates right now and
deciding if I want in essence a complete repaint with new
"recycled" hood and trunk, or to try to get out most but not
all of the dents with paintless techniques.
Local dealer has a nice 99 TR with Grey interior (if it was
TAN i would be more tempted) that I will drive soon, just to
see.
Nothing decided yet, but I am getting used to driving the
car that looks like a golf ball. Maybe it will go faster,
since golf balls look like they do because the dimples make
the ball travel faster in the air...Maybe my 96 is now good
for 150 mph?
