Re: Local cruise - poor GTO!
Not throwing stones at this poor Goat owner, but I was taught way back when to keep the wheels straight ahead while waiting to make a turn, just in case you get rear-ended so you will not be sent into on coming traffic. REally tuff break. Hope there were no serious injuries.

Re: Local cruise - poor GTO!
That frame is surely more than tweaked, the right side of the rear bumper is into the tire!
The two girls in the Honda were ambulanced, not life threatening. Everyone else appeared to be ok. The GTO did have the front wheels straight, the Honda hit more so in the right rear and pushed the rear of the GTO into the other lane - thank goodness, otherwise it may have been a slam from behind and a subsequent head on with the Dodge!

Re: Local cruise - poor GTO!
That's tough to look at, any time a vintage musclecar gets damaged. Good to hear the driver had the wheels straight...if wheels are turned in anticipation of a turn, he would be deemed 'at fault' for oncoming damages.

Re: Local cruise - poor GTO!
Man, that looks nasty! I forgot about CeeGee's. Fleetwood Blandon Rd. can be a mess at the wrong time. That looks like the case here.

Re: Local cruise - poor GTO!
Major bummer. I am always most leary of some witless blond text messaging her manicurist for an appointment and mounting me in the stern.

"... mounting me in the stern.
 Makes me wonder, Chris has gotta be a sailor and I'm not so sure this would be all that bad (if you left the cars out of the equation).
