Brakes locked on my '79 Ranchero today in the rain. Not speeding, driving responsibly, nothing I could do. She's totalled.

One day some people came to the master and asked ‘How can you be happy in a world of such impermanence? The master held up a glass and said ’Someone gave me this glass, and I really like this glass. It holds my water admirably and it glistens in the sunlight. I touch it and it rings! One day the wind may blow it off the shelf, or my elbow may knock it from the table. And I say, ‘Of course.’ When I understand that the glass is already broken, every moment with it is precious.

That really sucks. That looks like it was a really nice one too. I do find it very interesting that with all of the damage up front, the windshield appears to be intact. I do have a question...is the driver's door slightly ajar or is the frame that bent?
