my roommate in schools two brothers were in a car. the car slid on ice and hit a pole. the passenger side looked like that. the passenger is alive today, albeit with hip and pelvis damage from the accident. the driver died in the accident. seems the passenger went up against the driver and his body pushed the driver into the a pilar and his neck broke.

the living brother doesnt know he killed his brother.

Holy crap. Hopefully the passenger never finds out. If my twin bro and I were in an accident like that and I was responsible I don't know what I'd do...

um... judging by the gear shift i would suspect that he was backing out of a driveway onto a road, and cross-traffic hit him.

happened 20 years ago. when i suggested to my buddy that the inertia from the passenger may have been a cause he poo pooed it and that was the end of it.

Not my wreck. Looks like my car after I sold it.

I'd have to see under the hood to be sure. The aftermarket exhaust looks right though.

Yeah, it has that grill because I think there's an LT-1 in it. Sure looks like my old car.

See above. The grille, the exhaust, I think that's it...

That amazes me, a car gets wrapped around a telephone poll at warp speed and the rear hatch doesn't break. I leave a can of refrigerant in my car on a not so hot day and my rear hatch gets blown away. Life is just not fair.
