Mark,
I've been on the road all week and just saw this, what a major bummer. Here's to a speedy regroup and recovery.

 

[cruiserjunktion]

Glad no one was hurt, sorry about your losses.

 

[65swb45]

I have received a lot of offers of help from the LC community. Because of insurance regs there's only so much I can get help with.

The first thing I have determined I CAN get help with is in disposing of a large pile of scrap metal, most of which used to be Landcruiser parts.

If someone local has a pickup truck and is willing to drive, and someone else with a good back wants to help load and unload it, that would be a help. I will probably be ready with that by the end of next week. Insurance investigator doesn't want me to ditch the old shoplights yet.

And I could use some input on emergency board up costs in this related thread:

So it looks like there is still air in the tires!!

 

[65swb45]

If you're local and interested in a band saw, portable sandblaster, floor jack, car ramps, let me know.
View attachment 1295011 Oh yeah trans jack too

Band saw is gone: donated to a friend who helped me sort through the debris a clean up company would have just chucked. Damn good thing too, as my one and only four-on-the-tree adapter plate was in that pile of rubble. This is another one of those things that kills me about having a clean up company. I'd have to babysit the entire operation to make sure nothing important got chucked, so why not just do the effen job myself?
