Re: two ton tree fell on amx, body wanted

[farna@xxxxxxx]

This guy is near Boston. There was a big write-up in the local paper about the fight he's been having with the city about removing trees on his property. There's an ordinance against removing trees in wetlands, and his house is in the middle of such an area. He had permission to remove dead or dying trees, but an inspector came out and stopped him because he was supposedly cutting a live tree. He's had tree damage to cars almost every year for the last 3-5 years. After the above incident there was a break-down in communication between Tony and the city which lead to no more trees being removed. Then one fell on the back of his AMX! I don't have a link to the pics anymore, but it appeared that it could be repaired. The trouble is it would take a good body man and a good parts car. Both sail panels are damaged as well as the deck lid and area between rear window and deck. I'm not sure about structural damage in the rear roof. but it looks like everything from the frotn edge of!
  the deck up needs to be cut off and replaced. Not a cheap or easy job! I think he's going the right way -- fine another body and use the damaged one as a parts car. It was a big tree -- might even be some frame damage or twisting.
