What a rollercoaster of emotions today.
Started out excited, then happy, then pissed, and now depressed.

Phil... Corvette wasn't as expected?

Ohio, I'm jealous! I have a new amp set to arrive today for one of my vehicles (probably the Toyota). It's a Nakamichi amp. Williston Labs dyno'd it as about 2300 watts. I think that will be better than my Pioneer.

I'll be running it a 2 ohms with my DVC Fosgate Sub.

EDIT: Results:

Basically, the car is wrecked.
Dip**** uncle never noticed and never made a claim.
So now I have an 11-year-old restoration with only 1k miles on it that needs fiberglass work and a new paint job.

If he got rear ended he would have sued the **** out of the person.
He says it probably happened at the golf course.

Only an idiot in my opinion parks a nice car at a golf course.
Golfers are either old and can't drive, drunk from drinking on the course, or entitled and just don't care.

The list goes on and is extensive.
Like never unfolded and put the soft top up in the last 11 years.
Never cleaned it, some of the brand-new chrome has minor pitting you can feel.
Some of the screws in the center console have rust on the heads of them.....

I gotta stop, getting sick to my stomach again.

Don't get me wrong it's still a nice car, just gonna be really expensive to get it back to where it was.
With being retired it might be a driver or get sold.
Don't have the pocketbook for a new paint job.

This thing is built! It's quite heavy for its size. It has a 200A external fuse... that would explain why it tilts out at 2300 Watts.
