Jim,
I would love to spend a few hours with the pictured car. Re-hone my old skills if you would. Not to go to far off this thread, but as ugly as the car looks, it appears that the frame structure held up well. The left bumper bar is still attached. The question is, was it a 20 mph impact or a 40+ mph impact? It doesn't take much speed to rip off a fiberglass fender. Only an inspection will tell. If anyone has the details of this accident, I would love to hear them.
You can e-mail me at V10Cobra@aol.com

I do like the fact the the drivers door took a fairly serious hit, by the visible twist of the door, and damage to the left rear quarter, and remained intact. It simply suggest that the inner steel beam and the "Bear Claw" latch did it's job.

DV...have a great and safe day people- for you easterners, don't slip on the ice!
