Looks like a earth backed concrete wall didn't move at all.

Damn, that had to hurt!
 
Is this another Ralph Nader unsafe at any speed test picture? I’m sure the driver did not walk away. Where did the picture come from?
 
68 coronet needs minor repair or for parts. Best offer
 
I have a news paper clip of an accident from my younger days. Wonder where the the kid was sitting they're pulling out the rear window. look at how the people were trying to pull the car apart to save these kids. No Jaws-of-life in those days.

Towing cars back then you came upon some gruesome accidents. Some of them you couldn't always get all the body parts out. at the seen. Some never came out. The one car we had to put on top of Tony Hirshmans car pile so the smell would blow away from the garage. His lower leg was still wrapped in the floor.

My wife and I revisited this scene. This tree is at least 150 feet off the road. The car was coming from the left on the picture and jumped a bank about 4 foot high. It had to hit that tree while in the air That was after it took out a large utility pole right after the golf coarse

What do you all think about frame ties and and cages now?

Terrible accident, do you suppose alcohol was involved??????????????
 
Hit the first pole on left and went into the trees straight. The tree was behind the small power station that is there now it is clearly visible in fall. on top of the hill in that woods. Known street race spot. aheadhttps://www.google.com/maps/@40.5392723,-75.4386709,3a,75y,235.57h,70.04t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1snHtGrP1QceyowjNA_AVofg!2e0!7i13312!8i6656?hl=en&authuser=0

You can travel down the road with your mouse turn left at the fence the dead tree is behind the fence in the woods

Turn around and goo back to the golf coarse. They started at the cross walk. Had a place to park and watch the street races.

This car hit the rock in the weeds here.This veiw is from 2008. There was no growth around it then. He was traveling /coming from the right. Know street race spot. Raced here many times. If you turn and travel to your right you can see where we started at the intersection. This road was not used due to the new by-pass.
