wrecked SPF on eBay

[Dangerous Doug]

I figure the car was actually moving at 35mph---as he spun the tires up in a burn-out, which probably caught grip right as he shifted to second at 4500 rpm. Right after that, the tree, then the pillar, then the tow truck...

And in your own neighborhood. That's pretty embarassing. It makes walking down to pick up your newspaper while still in your robe that has the red hearts on it look like nothing.

OUUUUCH!

I like the dried blood on the rear fender, nice touch!
There are some good parts.
Headlight switch, dash mirror, a couple of gages....

I think the speed estimate is accurate, after it hit the tree and spun, it was traveling thru the air, side ways, the back of the car hit the pillar(?)
Thusly decelerating it down to 35mph on its way to 0...

Dean, are you ready? listen for it..

"SEE, SEE! SPF's suck! You can't even drive them thru a tree and a pillar without stuff falling off them! a Turn-key ERA with an FE(-eble excuse for an engine), would have just mowed that tree down as it came with Speed-Racer edition, mach-5, tree cutting, saw blades..."
OR
"You see when God created the ERA, he made them impervious to trees..."

Upon further review, that car really is F'd up good. FWIW, I sent the seller a note basically telling him that between here and SCOF there are enough interested parties to scavenge that nightmare if he realizes that parting it out will be easier to move parts than the whole ugly mess.

Stay tuned...
