The 71 makes for a very nice addition there.

What you need is a 69 in there, ( 500 or Daytona will due  ;) )
Then you'll have the best years represented  :D

Crikey, how lucky he made it home.  Always easier to sort these things out at home. Plus the fact that a possible bad accident was avoided.

Ouch, I guess you guys were lucky. What are the damages?

That sucks.  I've jerked ball joints out of the upper a arms before.  That is no fun.   This doesn't look any better.  I hope the list of parts that are damaged is a short one and easily obtainable.

No fender Damage... Looks like lugs came loose and tire just fell off.  The front bearings seem really loose thou so I guess new hub bearings and press in studs will probably be the extent of it
the rim holes got a little bigger to  lucky they were not the original 450's  they are still in the trunk.

Sorry to hear about this "issue" but it could have been much worse! I was cringing when I saw the tilted wheel picture.....
Love the look of the car by the way, right color, year and powerplant! :2thumbs:
