      On our way to the Nascar race and car show at MIS, a deer ran into the side of the GTO and dented it. It was very minor but it needs to be fixed. There were a couple other things I wanted to get taken care of so I figured as long as they were painting, I'd get them done. They said they should have it less than a month.

      • Hope you get it back soon. Body shops around here are notorious for long delays.

          I believe that is a nationwide requirement!

            A month for a minor dent? They're probably out beating the snot out of the car in the meantime.

              LOL. They are fixing some other things that I wanted to get taken care of and basically painting the back half of the car.

                    Well, I heard a rumor today that there might be some shinny stuff on the wagon by Turkey day! It has been there 2 months now and most likely will be there at least another month BBUUUTTTT we all know that is a goal not a guarantee! I am very happy with the work they are doing and the people doing it. Let's hope it all goes well.

                          So our deer was from Michigan?

                          She was a long way from home when we met her just north of Chattanooga

                          Or are you sawing we were selected in Michigan and it took her all the way to Tennessee to catch up with us?

                            They have quite the network. I'm sure calls were made.

                              It was a long time ago (mid 70's) in Michigan near Gladwin but I got a doe at 60 MPH in a 64 Lincoln - trooper wondered why I was driving w/o headlights so he blued me up.

                                I've blued up a bunch of stuff over the years and it does seem to happen without the headlights being on!

                                And just for the record - the deer hit us!
