In a wierd way that is very reassuring. Looking at those pictures you can see where things folded up but the center didn't and looks fairly sound, for being hit by a semi.

Good luck with the insurance company and all. Hope to see you stay with a LT1 when the time comes.

Like everyone else, glad to see you made it through ok. That could have turned out a lot worse, for you that is. Just like a lot of other people, your car was one of my fav LT1s on this board and I'm sad to see her bite the dust prematurely. Hopefully you can recoop and move on to bigger and better things.

Oh man... So sorry to see that beautiful car torn up like that! It's just a car, though, and the important thing is that you made it out ok.

Damn that sucks. At least you didn't get flattened like a pancake by the semi. Did the cops cite the old people, or where they gone by the time they got there?

Get another car and build it even better.

glad your ok, hopefully your insurance gives you enough for a new fbody.

i'm a believer in retaking your drivers exam when you in (late 60's early 70's). on weekly basis i run into a traffic jam or damn near get hit by the elderly.
EXACTLY what I was thinking! Oh and i'm glad your okay!!!

WOW...bro, I'm not going to lie, when Bryan showed me this thread I thought for sure someone else had taken these pictures and at the bottom it was going to say you were in intensive care or something.

I'm glad you made it out safely. Honestly that's one of the worst fbody crashes that I've seen. It's amazing how safe our cars really are from impact.

I hope you are ok and don't rush into getting your next car, take your time if you can and find the RIGHT one that you will keep...from now till forever. lol.

Goodluck brother, and GODBLESS!

Nothing a little fiberglass and a can of bondo can't fix

Seriously though, it's AMAZING you lived through that let alone walked away from it apparently... It really sucks that happened to your car though, you put alot of work into it and it was a REALLY nice ride!

Luckily it happened in Florida (someone hits you from the rear it doesn't matter the circumstances it is their fault and their insurance foots the bill, I lived there untill 2 years ago)... Good to hear you are joining the Dark Side (LS1) as well
