    I'm really on the fence here. I really want you to buy Osteomata's VX, but on the other hand I also want you to fix your original VX. I would hate to see a perfectly good VX parted out. It's just a minor fender bender. Osteomata's VX should go to a good home... a member! But, do you really want two VXs? Can you handle that much excitement! Would you fix up your original VX and sell it? Or does it have sentimental value and you would sell Osteomata's VX? So many questions...so little time.

    LOL.. I hear ya Cobra! time actually is not of essence but my patience level is at it's peak.. I can always handle two VX's.. I think with the $$ Geico gave me, I can fix mine, and buy another one at auction that's wrecked in the same spot, and fix that one and sell it.. lol.. or keep it.. we wrapped up a total restore on a 68 camaro about a month ago.. sold that puppy much to my argument. I would love to do a restore on a cheaper separate VX.. more so than anything, I want mine out on the road burning rubber.. eating the road for breakfast. Spoke my boss this am, and we're moving ahead on fixing mine.. I just can't part with it.. she's been so good to me.. osteomata's would be sweet, considering the miles on it.. but ultimately it's better for me to fix mine, and possibly buy another with the chunk of change from insurance.. I had a fantastic adjuster that pushed it right up to the limit on "total loss" without totaling it out.. paid me almost to the dollar what I paid for the VX to begin with.. because according to Geico, they "valued" mine at 8700.. I paid 5800 for it.
    driving anything other than my Proton makes me want to puke
