Ouch :shock:

But forget the damage to the car for a minute...look at the broken handbrake handle and the knee sized dent in the metal just above it, let alone the steering wheel.

Did you get very badly hurt?

:arrow: :shock:

Bloody hell! That is one solid hit. Did similar damage to a Kingswood when it hit a &*#@ (&*#@ was much much worse :D ) Sore chest and knees there at least. Hope you are okay. Couldn't help but notice the horn ring looks intact yet the steering wheel in mashed :shock: :shock: :shock:
I suppose this is a good example of how in older cars, the crumple zone is you.

I guess now you'd have to replace so much that it wouldn't be the same car. What are your plans?

Will you just salvage what you can?

:arrow: :(

Wow :shock: that may take some time to polish out,good luck with the rebuild.

This put a smile on my face but again felt sorry for the owner of the other car. yesterday cut off by a dckhead going into a set of lights under brakes shaked the head. then next set off lights he goes straight up the ass of a Mercedes Kompressor convertible priceless..

rebuild!.. in some mutated form perhaps.. 8)
there has been suggestion of cutting her back to the fire wall and stretching er out some..
plenty twisted thou, right thru to her arse… :esad:
have pulled her up in the pool room for now, don't really have the space or resources to take that kind of mission on at the moment,
there'e much on that's still good thou..
adventurous morning was back in june, cops at scene..
no doubt &*#@ plastic was at fault, he paid up, no hassles there..

:eh: it's a real pleasure dealing with de photobucket!!
