That'll buff out....

[XDoctor]

So I was juggling a dog, keys, my kindle, my reo and trying to talk on the phone while getting in the car today and I set my Grand on the outside of the car in that space between the back of the hood and the bottom of the windshield.

I remembered that about ten miles down the road and it was gone, so I went back for it.

The door was nowhere to be found, also lost the bottle, battery and drip tip. I own 40 mods, but this was by far my favorite. I've never been so sad about the destruction of an inanimate object.

Oddly enough the button still works fine.

Rob, hurry up and get the Grands ready, I need one in a bad way!

i think you have set a record for the most abused reo pic ever posted. at least i don't want to see anything worse.

Shove a new bottle & batt in it. Slap a new atty on it. Make a "door" with duct tape and vape the grit out of it!!

Battle scarred Reo.

you've probably got one of the best project boxes available now though and a great reason to buy a new VV Grand

I would have to see if it still works! What a story!

 

[nerak]

Some parts of it look melted! My goodness what a mess! Would be interesting to know if it would work though.

That had to hurt! Um...you of course! I would be devastated!

 

[Rhapsodies Fire]

Oh my word! That is the first time I've seen one damaged that baddly....looks like it tousled with a Mack Truck
(((XDoctor)))

I'd bet you can still get it to work.

 

[WhatAClumsyGirl]

Holy Bejeebus !! You beat me at beating up a Reo !! Look Robert !! Mine wasnt so bad !

What do you think Lisa, send it to Robert? Maybe a $20 repair? LOL Forgot, plus price of new door!

 

[charady]

That is crazy! Poor reo!

 

[tmcase]

If that Reo still worked after taking that kind of abuse, Rob's website is going to be so flooded with Reo buyers that his server will crash and it will be harder for you guys to get the Reos you want but what better advertisement could you ask for. If it still works, which is a pretty big if. So sorry this happened but I'll bet you never leave your next Reo sitting on your car again.

If you made a video montage from those pictures and put a Sarah McLachlan song over it, you could give those .......s at Animal Planet a run for their money for 'commercial most likely to make you lunge for the remote'.

Durable aluminum. Pound it out, throw a battery, bottle, and atty on it. Have the video rolling. Best testament to the durability and love of a REO. Might even get a reward. (Hint).

Dang, I'd be crying! Sorry for the damage to your REO.

 

[XDoctor]

That's not a bad idea. This weekend I'll try and straighten it out enough to take a battery and we'll see if it still vapes. It will never take a door again, the channels for it are bent shut, there's no fixing it without machining new rails. And unfortunately it won't ever work like a reo again because the juice well is ground off on one side. Unfortunately the whole thing was torqued and the connection is sitting at an angle. I'll post a video here as soon as I have it.

 

[redeyedancer]

Hello Xdoctor I am sure the mod will still work but your right it wont run right without the juice well .If you need another grand quickly let me no I can put one together

Be on the lookout for a "Gently used silver REO Grand, needs door" post in the classys.

 

[davelog]

"sightly shotgunned"

 

[Dusty_D]

I couldn't show these pictures to my Grand for fear that it would throw-up! I did give it a hug though, before putting it back in the car!

That Grand looks like it's been in a WAR .. Rest well veteran Grand. You've earned it!!
