This poor blazer(video)

Saw this video of a Blazer accident online.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DHn6ePrL6jE

I also saw this one a few days ago. A guy pulling a boat passing on the shoulder.

That sucks! That is the one risk of driving something rare. Hope everybody is ok.

I could have it off the frame machine and a front cap on in just a day or so. It isn't hurt as bad as one might think. I bet it goes stupid high at the insurance auction

Ouch- thanks for posting. Makes me want to hoard yet more sheetmetal just in case. I'm going to post a link on the blazer board.

I invest myself in my trucks. I don't mind admitting I teared up when my '67 got munched, and I would again if my current one did. I have bled and sweated over these trucks over a total of almost 35 years, so a few tears are only natural.

Re: This poor blazer(video)

I would be one mad son of a gun. If the person that hit me was on a cell phone I would have to be restrained for I would want to beat the crap out of them. Hopefully no one was hurt seriously. Yeah I don't drive mine on a daily basis either. To many people doing other things than paying attention to the road. It seems 9 out of 10 people are using cell phone anymore. I see it every day.

My heart sank a little. Looks like mine. Plus it looked pretty original and in good condition.
