Thread: NOT good news...

  1. #11

    Well wishes

    Needless to say the damage to Freeman's work of art is tragic but, the main thing is Freeman is OK. Speaking as one who has been there many times, you get up, dust yourself off and get to work. Freeman's Phoenix will rise from this pile of ashes and knowing him, if it's possiable. It will be even that much nicer than before.
    I think I can speak for the guys, you have our support on anything you need or help we can be getting your car back on the road!

    All the best!

    Dang...I no sooner read the Excellence article a few days ago and now this? Bad scene, but it sounds salvageable. The thought of some weenie tearing up my 911 gives me nitemares. Best of wishes on your car's recovery Freeman.

    That is terrible news. Wow, talk about going from a high to low in such a short time! I certainly hope it is repairable.
    A local shop here in Ohio has a NOS front valence and a NOS fender for sale (cant remember which side tho ) If these can be of any help in the repairs, have Freeman get with me and I will put him in touch with the correct people.

    I haven't talked with him today, but if he was a little sore last night, then I bet he's a lot sore today.

    I hurts to see all the meticulous research and work (and $$$) that Freeman put into this car just get dashed by some flake running a stop sign. Goes to show tho', that you have to be really careful out there. Ex-specially on the tear-ass canyon runs! Ferchrissakes, be careful. Could get kilt!

    Just to let everyone know...

    Tha man is fine. He sees this incident as a problem to be solved, an' that's what he's gonna do. Git 'er done! Another phase in the car's life.

    Jus' maybe it'll be better.

    But damn, the paint was so-o-o-o shiney. (sniff)

    Glad to hear he is okay,

    I've been reading the Excellence article over and over. Sorry to hear about the accident, but glad to hear the car will be back better than before (is that really possible?!), looking forward to reading the Excellence article on the rebuild! Go Freeman!
