Well, the midget is parked in the garage, and my Camry was parked in there for that night because I had picked the van up from the shop, we got all new tires, brakes, shocks and so on.

We should do fine on insurance.  That van was CLEAN.  Low mileage, not a scratch on it.  The comps we have found are all double the mileage, ok condition and so on.

That was the only night that van has ever been parked there.

I bet you wish you had an appointment for all that work you did on the can on the next day. :(

Hopefully everything will work out good.

Next time...park the midget in the van and the van in the garage.  On a side note is it legal for you to keep a midget (I think they prefer little person ) in the garage :o :o :o

I as told that I can get most if not all of it back since it was so recent. 

We should do well on it, it was almost paid off.

HAHA, i walked into Taco Bell once with a friend as we were talking about a car show I went to...as I am walking up to the counter I said, "yeah I won because I was the only midget there" only to look up and see a little person behind the counter.

I don't understand. . . some duct tape and a tarp, you would not need a new van.
well, at least that's the way they'd do it around here.

It looks like they did not do a great job on the shocks. For some reason, it seams that the rear end on upper picture is a lot lower than the front end.
