It was in 1980, when we went on holiday by car. Two married couples came along with us. My husband drove the car that our friend was the owner. It didn't take long; a stone broke the front window of the friend's car. It was very difficult to get a new front window at that time. Anyhow, we managed it. Hundred kilometers later, the friends that was driving behind us, had a crash with our car, because my husband braked his car. The light was broken and it was late, very late. There wasn't open a garage that could repair the car. We traveled 200 kilometers with lamps that hung out of the socket, a boot tail-board that we don't able to close and people that was in bad mood. Really, it was my worst travel ever.

Very good ... and therefore I'm going to be very picky.  I'm also going to correct with British English, not American English.

It didn't take long; Yes, OK, but maybe, "Before long, " a stone broke the front window windscreen of the friend's car. It was very difficult to get a new front window windscreen (U.S. windshield (I think!)) at that time. Anyhow, we managed it. A hundred Hundred kilometers (in UK, we tend to use metres, not meters etc) later, the friends that was driving behind us, had a crash with our car, because my husband braked his car. The lights were was broken (or, A light was broken) and it was late, very late. There wasn't open a garage open that could repair the car. We traveled 200 kilometers with lamps hanging that hung out of the fitting socket, a boot tail-board that we weren't don't able to close and people that was in a bad mood. Really, it was my worst journey travel ever.

Yes, I know, but really it was very good; I'm being very particular

Thank you for your correcting with British English, because we have friends in England not in America.  
Best regards from Germany

Hi Moni,
I agree with the above corrections.         I would have uses lights or light globes rather than lamps.       

  By the way, you need to say:  Thank you for your corrections, not correcting.  oder  Thank you for correcting my English.

Have a nice Sunday. 

love,
Rosslyn
