I too totalled my z recently, just Friday night actually. I noticed in the pics the damage is very similar. The back of the car held up, and even the roof after a rollover. Front was the weak point. But im still suprised at how crash safe these cars are. My friend and I both walked away with only scratches and one of his fingers broke. Ill have pics up soon of the car.

DAIYUM!!! Hope your GF is OK; I served in Iraq back in 03 and made friends with several KBR contractors working in Baghdad and in Navistar. Couple of my friends went to work with the now defunct Custer-Battles firm, one was KIA in 04 and another one (my team leader) was seriously hurt (Damn IEDs), but the rest of the guys then went to work with Blackwater USA and are rotating between Iraq and A-Stan AFAIK.

Just stay safe out there.

Yeah the ex is alright. Have not seen her since the wreck happened in 06. Good riddens. Her older brother is my best friend of 20 years. Anyways. Sold the Camaro for 20 grand and will be getting rims, exhaust, and intake next week maybe. Going to make a couple extra house payments and car payments ahead of schedule.

I have a 68 camaro RS project car for sale - all original parts minus the sound system and exhaust and alarm.. if any locals are interested, I will get some recent pictures taken and a lot more info on it. fully rebuilt original 327 with only a few thousand miles on it, needs paint, body work, interior and a steering column fix - something is bent and grabs while turning sometimes.

here is the last picture I have of it, the body will definitely need some work, this picture hides it WELL.
