      An that tow truck guy should be castrated.
      The insurance company should have had it towed.

          regardless, they could have paid for it out of their own pocket and the insurance company would have reimbursed them. my vert was in an accident and I had to have it towed to my apt. The insurance company had no problem with reimbursing me for the amount I paid.

          Letting a 70K car sit on bricks till wheels come in just doesn't sound right. If I have a 70K car, it's immediately being professionally towed off the street and into a shop.

          Actually, what am I saying, I'm that way with my e30.

The insurance company will reimburse you for shit like that.

              I would not leave my car sitting on bricks for any longer than it took to locate some steelies or some shit.

              On the same token, some of these tow truck drivers are some of the worse scumbags of the earth.

              I agree.

                      That motor should have been shoehorned into a rabbit anyways.

                          Wouldn't work in FF for me, had to watch it in IE.

                          Who steals OEM wheels anyways? Probably had a set of these on there:

                              The don't make wheel dolleys for nothing. One under each disc and here it goes. In the worst case scenario, just unbend the backing plates.

                              Brake harder. Go faster. No shit.
