Totalled my baby.
Bad news team. I crashed my SVX and may have to total and part her out.
1995 LSI Black. TomSVX came down for a look see and said my frame was bent (thanks again Tom for driving all this way). It's a shame too since other members here already had the sub frame, wheels, rods, and arm assembly ready to sell to me. There is a chance we could save her if anyone wants to cut out and sell me a unibody right frame rail. I am still looking at $3000 in total repairs on a car that is worth $5000 but I might do it anyway. Especially, if my insurance company gives me crap which looks likely. Anywho maybe someone has a frame rail lying around. Let me know. Otherwise I plan to total her out and give the insurance company direction to this site for selling of the parts or the entire car to the family here. Good news is the body is in great shape. Wiring harness is worth about $400, engine $700 and tranny maybe $600, not to mention all the other goodies. God speed everyone. I don't think I'll be able to buy another SVX soon.... of course I could win Tom's Reading car..... Hmmmm.....

Because I hit a curb at the perfect angle.
Body was largely unscathed. Slid thru intersection at about 30 mph. Hit curb at maybe a 20 to 30 degree angle. Twised the arm assembly, snapped out the sub frame mount points and drove that mounting point two inches into the unibody rail. Thusly $3000_+ to repair and just a scratch or two on the bottom six inches of the quarter panel behind the front wheel.
Back wheel pivoted around and hit the curb too, but for some reason none of the body was hit from what I can see.
