    That looks identical to the damage on my caddi years ago after a pass with the riding tractor. I could have cried.

    Lol, I know it's going to happen, Just very frustrating to find the new dings. Insurance is good, but costs money. When you're unemployed you take what you can get...definitely going to be the #1 thing i look to when i get a job though. The ding isn't bad, should be an easy cover up/fix. Also agree with the not a door ding, It ws probs just a rock, to big for pellets/BB's. That or someone managed to back a hitch into it. Buuut to brighten my day, i found a very slick new maverick that i've never seen before today at the car show! Hard to get pics, not much room to move around between cars but i did my best.

    Also found an older comet pull in towards the end of the show, not sure on the year for sure.

    It's a fixable ding. Very clean and sharp car as well! The guy seemed really cool, he picked up the car about 10 years ago, sitting on the side of the road started up, drove....$400. 8 Grand later it's painted with a 302 in it and all the other stuff he did to it. Never caught the lady driving the comet to talk to her about that, it looked pretty clean as well though.

    Are you going to make it to the Wapato Showdown this year? If so i'll save a spot for you. (or you can save the spots if you get there before me!) I talked to the guy putting it on, he said parking is first come first serve, but when i get there i can ask for "x" amount of spots around me because i told him i had a few other Mavericks coming and would like if i could get us all parked together if possible. Let me know so i know how many spots need saving.

    It looks like a rock thrown from a tire to me. Too low for a door.
