I am glad you are ok. It looks like the Avalanche was the only moving vehicle. How the hell could 1 person cause so much damage. What is that about a 9 - 10 car accident? Hope you can find another Bonneville that clean. It was very nice. Sorry to hear about it.

Hey Jeff,

Sorry to hear about your accident. My Bonnie has been in at least half a dozen colisions, however all were minor enough to be repaired. It pains me to see a nice SSE like your die such an untimely death, though. Well, hopefully you can find a nice supercharged SSEi to replace it with!

Clearing out, hehehe I like your way of thinking. Very good idea. I have to by new ones anyway so I might try that out when I do. If I do it before you I will be sure to mention that this will be known as the "skza” effect. Oh as a side note some Bonnevilles come with next to no side cladding on them. They also have smoother bumpers. Oh I also found out that the kind of plastic on our bumpers is mostly a mix that cannot be melted but the grooves can be filled and made nice and smooth. I’m going to get the proper tools and start on it ASAP. Buying a cd player first. Just give me a SCREAM and Ill send you the link to the site that tells you about the bumpers.

A 1995 SSE isn't too shabby. 35hp more than our older ones

I'm stunned. Holy ****. You had probably the cleanest example of perfection in an older model.....including mine. Trust me, that'* saying alot. Mine sat in a garage for almost 5 years, and was a Company Executives car before that. I'd have sat down in the lot and CRIED. Good luck with the search for another.
