judging from the damage, and knowing how you parked the car in your yard, they were probably heading south and were turning east into that neighborhood. Looking at the car, it looks like it was a small (or at least low) car. Most likely FWD if it pushed all the way into your yard. So, if I were you, I would be riding a bicycle, or walking around to the east of you looking for fresh gouge marks in the concrete from the person driving on flat tire....

Thankfully they hit your car and not your sons room. If someone hurt my little ones, not sure what I would do...
Gotcha. Yeah, I would appreciate it if he kept an eye out. Whatever car is is, has some front end damage and is probably driving on a spare tire. If he finds anything, I have pieces of there headlight to match up. If they hit my sons room, I wouldnt sleep until I found them, I promise you that. Thanks again bro

It's all good man, I have already torn the motor down to the short block, and will hopefully have the block and tranny sitting on the ground during the week.

Not really sure that it twisted the chassis, but it tore the core support behind the passenger side headlight right in half. And right behind the strut tower where that seam is, it seperated it about 1/2". I'm just gonna part it out. I couldnt drive it knowing that it took that kind of impact, would be a nervous wreck. Thanks anyways man.

You may not be able to have the police do anything,.. and I'm not 'officially' suggesting anything here,.. but I am a firm believer in 'street justice'. I grew up with an eye for an eye,.. tooth for a tooth mentality. I've been known to carry a grudge for a long time. Odds are they were either drunk and didnt want to get arrested or young kid that doesnt have insurance. One way or the other I'd take care of business.

I spent hours looking bro. Trust me, I will not forget about this. Zephyrhills is a very small town and everyone knows everyone. My wife and her family grew up here and know everyone. I WILL find out, and there will be justice, I promise you that Jim.

Thats the kind of car I am thinking. And it is clear the way they were headed. Drive by my house, you will see the tire tracks in the road, through my grass, tire tracks and bare rims tracks through my driveway, hit the car, and then tire tracks out the other side of my yard.

wow, I'm sorry to hear that.

coincidentally, I had a 90 Mustang I loved many years ago. I was at the movies with my mom and my kids when my pager started going off repeatedly (I told you it was many years ago). I finally called back and it was my friend. he told me someone hit my car in my driveway, I felt sick.

turned out it was a very long story. My friend/roommate broke up with his girlfriend, when her mom, who had just gotten out of prison for vehicular manslaughter, tried to run him over in our yard and t boned my car. then she fled the scene, probably about 20 witnesses. The police would do nothing, only said if they happened to pull her over they would charge her with leaving the scene of an accident. We found where she lived in another county (Highlands), called the cops, and they wouldn't even respond. 2 weeks later, she was killed in a single vehicle accident while intoxicated. believe in Karma, the shit is real.

good luck, Cliff.
Rick

I was waiting on you to respond, lol. It's all your fault man..... J/K actually I am so glad we did not do any trading. Could you imagine if we traded on Saturday, and Saturday night the coupe was totaled in this BS. Atleast I wouldn't have to tear down the motor. lol
