Ouch ZR-1 wreck
Saw this on Facebook.
Hope everyone is okay. Not sure if this is old or not. https://m.facebook.com/photo.php?fbi...6819&source=48 |

Oh, that will buff right out.
If not, keep your eye on Co Parts

Re: Ouch ZR-1 wreck
Looks like car in front had 22+ wheels on it and it went right under...

Re: Ouch ZR-1 wreck
Hi Lee--What's a "Wait Title"? Like it sounds--they are waiting on the title? Is it not a salvage title if it is going to auction via IAA?--Bob

Re: Ouch ZR-1 wreck
Hmm, the damage doesn't seem THAT crazy. Do you suppose that was enough to bend the frame?

Re: Ouch ZR-1 wreck
Looks like about what damage my Z sustained. The most expensive part was the new hood and the paint job. The "horns" on the frame that hold the bumper had to be tweaked about 1/2" and once that was done, it went together better than before the mishap! (Thanks largely to Brett Henderson's coaching!). I've seen much worse examples that recovered nicely.

Re: Ouch ZR-1 wreck
He was either following too close or not paying attention to the road....How else could one put almost the entire car under another car??? And the airbags didn't activate?? Too me that seems to be a hard enough hit too deploy the air bag. But glad all walked away from that, that's crazy!
