Volks, Does anyone know of a really good auto body shop in Palm Beach or Broward County? Some lovely lady backed right into my bus as I was sitting across the street and watching her pull out. She hit it so hard that even though I had it in second gear with the E brake on, it rolled about 10 feet.

“The Horror, the Horror”

I was as nice as I could be to her after what she did to my baby for fear of being beaten to death with her cane.....

The back bumper is smashed and she also dented in the right rear corner a bit. Over all, I think that Gretchen held up pretty well, but I wouldn’t want to use my bus as the candidate for any more crash testing. Shouldn’t be to bad to repair, but I have seen too many poorly done jobs in the past go looking blindly.

Thanks in advance.
