I hate it when this happens. I rearended another car at a “Right on Red” intersection and bent the right front fender pretty good, BROKE one of the bumper pieces and broke the headlight lens (It’s a repro but still glass.)
The race is now on to get it all fixed and ready so that we can still drive it to the meet. I was going all of three miles an hour at the time. No one was hurt, just my pride.
Sorry to hear about the bent metal, but it can be repaired ! With 5000+ pounds moving, even at only 3mph, there is a lot of momentum to bring to a halt. Glad it is fairly minor, not into the headlamp flare, or the rest of the front bumper.
See you soon.

Bill: do you have Wilma’s car over at Scott’s where he can work his Magic on the fender and paint?
Greg L
Yup, it’s over there. I’ve managed to borrow a bumper set to use on the drive to RI. I’ll have to return it when we get back.
Bill
Glad to hear damage is manageable. Hope your drive goes well.
Progress. The fender is about 85% back in shape.
