That sucks. I love that car. Jimmy just posted on the bullet that everyone is ok. He did not have insurance on the car and it sounds like its back to square one again

Jimmy,
Like everyone of your other admirers of your car, I am really sorry to hear you had this happen to you again. Thats a real tough kick to accept.

Hopefully the damage is not that bad & car can rise from the ashes once again.

Fingers crossed for you

So sorry to hear this about his beautiful Dart.
How can anyone endure this type of disaster?
Can he rebuild it for the third time?
