I'm assuming there was a police report......yes?  I would also suggest contacting auto body shops in the area to see if any vehicles that fits the description has been brought in.

Sorry to hear your story. We'll keep a look out. Although if they drive this car around before it is fixed, it won't be hard to miss with all of the damage.

Good luck!!

You might want to check into autoglass places and junk yards just in case she has someone fixing up the car for her in private.  Autoparts stores also keep records on what type of car purchases are being made for.   They are also good to check up on.  But dont just check in this area.  Check outer areas as well.  

If it were my car, I would be calling every parts dealer in the phone book.

I would also check, not just in the immediate Schenectady area.

Assume the driver is from Schenectady, she could have someone go to an auto parts place say in Gloversville, or maybe further away.  



Optimists close their eyes and pretend problems are non existent.  
Better to have open eyes, see the truths, acknowledge the negatives, and
speak up for the people rather than the politicos and their rich cronies.

if anyone lives in the bellvue area keep your eyes open for a toyota or honda that fits the description above,it has extensive damage to the front of the car. look ,we are living in a recession, and i doubt very much that this hit and run driver has the money to fix up her car!

Well, I'm glad that you are starting to make some progress to figure out who did this, but are you saying that with this much information, the RPD and DMV can't run a partial plate with the type of vehicle that was involved and figure out who this is yet?  I know more information always helps, but I would think with having this amount of information, it would have them hot on someone's trail rather quickly.  Also, is this a NY state plate, or was it an out of state plate?  And now that NY has 2 different types of plates, was it the new or the old plate style?

My Brother in Law works for an auto glass repair company and I put the word out to him and for him to contact others he knows.

I wish the victims the best of luck.

My hubby's truck was hit by a driver who took off right infront of my house. I drove around for hours and I found the car on Craig St. The way I knew was it left some car parts here and large paint chips.

You are so nice to do this for them : )

Wish them and all the best in finding the H & R driver

I'm sure they are trying to run the plate # even though it is a partial one.
