This past weekend my car was hit in my uncle's yard. The speed limit is 25mph on that road, I was outside talking to my uncle and all of a sudden I see a car speeding and swerved into my car. He gets out of the car asking me not to call the police, when I did he pulled a pistol out on me and put one in the chamber then ran away. I am so upset I work hard everyday to make a living and support my family. Now this crap came along which is slowing me down from my everyday routine. The insurance adjuster will be at Ford bodyshop Monday, I hope they don't total it. It took me 6months to find that one. The pics I have are not the best of quality, but I will post better pics when I get off this afternoon.

I'm not an isurance adjuster; and based on what the knowledgable people on here have shown/said over time; it probably is fixable.
But...
based on the pic looking down the side from the back...your company will definately write it off.
So sorry man.

I have an pistol permit, but I left it at home. Took it out the car while cleaning it out and forgot to return it.

Well did the police get the guy? There is a Marauder in Birmingham at an inserance auction that will be up for sell soon. The motor is burned. Sorry about your car.

Yes they found him two hours later, they said he has been drinking but blowed under the limit. He did not have the pistol on him when police arrived. So he did it get arrested because he told police he thought I was going to beat him so he ran away. Yes let me know the info on the auction in B-Ham. Thanks!

If the insurance company total it. What's the average price to buy it back I guess I can keep parts because I will buy another one.

Totally depends upon the condition of the car, what you had it insured for and how much damage they say it has...the more damage, the cheaper it is to buy back.

Sorry for your bad news, but remember, you don't need a CCW for an aluminum bat:

Gun pulled on you in Indiana = deadly force authorized. You don't take a bat to a gun fight.

sorry to hear of the incident
but I don't get it you have a piece that you carry in the car but you didn't have it in the car
a guy who was drunk slams into your car in your uncles drive way gets out and pulls a gun on you then runs away and the police catch him and lets him go .
Did I get that right????
Where do you live?

That's what i was thinking!

And if a guy pulls a gun on you, doesn't he have the drop on you? Sounds to me like the wrong guy would be shot 9 times out of ten. I know you said this guy had to load so you might have time. :shake:

BTW, so sorry about your car, :( that really sucks.

Oh damn...the rear axle is pushed...a good body and frame guy can save her though. We have the technology, we can rebuild her...we can make her better, stronger, faster...

Thanks for the encouragement, I needed it. But I am prepared for the worse that its totaled, I will know Monday what the verdict is. I love these body styles I've had three of them. I feel like I just lost someone I love... I did... her name was Betty Black...R.I.P.

It can be fixed, and while in the shop it can be blown

Like everytime KITT got damaged, he came back with better stuff

Let them total it, buy it back, build the snot out of it.

Buy the one with the shot engine, put your motor in it and part your smashed one out. You'll end up probably making money.

Sorry for the mushed MM. I'd have shot his ass...

Good luck!

open your center console then grap the upper lid and yank up but watch for the power cord for the volt plug then in front you will see a hidden compartment for a gun. the console goes back in the hole with just clips

31314313153131631317 Oh boy, that doesn't look good.
My Marquis looked about like that - maybe not even as bad - and it was totaled out.
Hoping for the best for you.

Can you just not let the INS Co see it and just fix it yourself?

Could be cheaper than buying it back and fixing it.

thats bullspit.... should have pulled your own gun out.

Call the cops give a description of the person and car, Im sure they would like to talk to him about his actions and his gun

Its fixable. To the insurance its probably totaled but trust me its fixable. Had a cousin who got hit on the same side, was in much more uglier shape but it got fixed and all was good:) don't lose hope!!

1st You should ask the insurance company to find you another if they are gonna total it .2nd you should insist on buy back as part of the settlement .3rd you should aggressively pursue his insurance for a complete repair .4th you should talk to the local states attorney or his boss for prosecution .5th you should immediately start civil court action for damages or replacement against the other driver. You would be amazed at how quickly you can get a good settlement if you turn the heat on high on all burners. Lastly don't bring a subpeona to a gunfight.(Do a background check on this guy to make sure he ain't organised crime or somehow otherwise untouchable !) Best of luck !! Coaltrain

Everything you said I heard from different people. There are a couple of options I can take, but I am not going to let them low ball me. To this whole MARAUDER community I really appreciate all of the support and help. It makes me really want to get another MARAUDER with good people on this forum. In this mean ass world. It's hard meeting good people! (For me at least.) Thanks everyone!!!

Why was this guy not arrested......
Sure you were pissed........but he pulled the gun.
He said he was afraid you'd beat him?

Sorry for your MM loss.
I used to live in AL...........Now GA. I have a CCW.. then and now.
CCW doesn't do much good if you do not carry........and someone pulls a gun on you
