As much as I hate to see the Cherokee on fire. The photo itself is a very good photo in terms of the actual photography

A friend of mine was driving it... he was fine. Had a headache, cut his arm and got blood on his new shoes.

That's what happens when you hold on to the wheel really tight and make a sudden stop from 60mph.

Haha the funny part was that they would have come out for less for the repair, I don't really know how this would have worked out cheaper for them had I not bought it back, it's not like a scrapper would've paid a grand for it. I dunno

But I was glad I got to keep her, They're hard to find for $3400 in the same shape around here.

Hopefully those pics aren't sideways. I can't for the life of me get em to be straight when I post from my phone.

Anyways, that's my 91 a guy ran a red light when I was going through the intersection. If I wouldn't have seen him coming, and slammed the brakes and cut it to the right he probably would've t boned me and it would been a lot worse. I had my daughter with me and both of us were fine.

The guys insurance gave me $1570 and my Heep back. I bought a clean *** 99 for $1300. And I'm I'm the process of repairing my 91. Frame rails are straight, inner fenders will be the hard part.
