Default 71-72? Trans Am wasted

This was posted on FB. Story is that it happened a couple days ago, (sat), in Roanoke Va. T/A hit 4 other cars. Looks like it was a nice 71-72

Nah, the accident appears to have happened in Virginia so it was most probable he was high on decriminalized marijuana.

I saw that on FB.

Everything is fixable with enough money. That's gonna take a lot of it.

Unless it spun around looks like something hit it first:



Wonder if that is why the drivers seat is broke?

I don't think that is the asking/selling price. That is what it's value is and probably what the former owner got as an insurance settlement. As it sits, it might fetch 5K as a parts car, if that. Would cost well over 40K to bring it back and the owner would be upside down on it in a big way. Will be interesting to see what it goes for.
