OMG! Bad 69 Judge wreck!
 
I found this thread on another site. I hope this car didn't belong to anyone on this site.

Those tissues should come in handy on front floor board.

I am just amazed at the IQ level of some people with rare fast cars. Chalk another one up to the telephone pole/car list.

x2 sad to see.

RAJ7395 08-28-2009 06:27 PM

Ouch.. not cool at all. Hope he's okay.

Cammer-6 08-28-2009 06:37 PM

wondering if it was a clone
if not no big loss,look at the chunks of bondo that popped out.
Im guessing if it wasnt a clone,the attention to detail was lacking.

GTOJohn posted in the lobby post few days ago (about this wreck) of his conversation with the Fire Dept.

Posted he was running 70 ish mph .

Looks like his leg injuries would have been serious from large pictures of driver side dash/firewall damage.

so did anyone ever figure out who the guy was?

People on this board always seem to see so much more than I do. Where are the chunks of bondo?
BTW, (In my opinion at least) even if it wasn't a Judge, still a shame to see even a clean '69 Tempest wind up like that.

Wow, you can see the frame was pulled away from the body in the first picture. Did the tranny pull the shifter through the floor?

The Boss 08-29-2009 09:42 AM

Word from the other board is that he was passing traffic and there was an oncoming car - swerved to the left at high speed to avoid.

He's lucky he isn't dead - and that nobody else is too.

During my college days I worked a wrecker doing the graveyard shift thursday, Friday and saturday. Saw a lot of this sort of thing. Believe it or not an impact speed of about 30mph will do that kind of damage (meaning he was probably going faster before he actually hit.

I remember a then new 5.0 Mustang (80`s vintage) hitting a large tree at about 60-70 mph, made that Judge accident look like a parking lot ding. The mustang simply burst into a thousand pieces, they cleaned up the two passengers with shovels and the car was scattered in bits for 75 yards in each direction.

I drove by the spot two days ago, tree is fine, not even a mark on the bark anymore. Lesson:

If thin sheetmetal meets thick lumber........

As I was looking at the pics, for some strange reason a song started running thru my head.

Another one bites the dust.

Glad no innocent bystanders were injured by this ass clown.

not unless their owner added them later

AGTO8U 08-29-2009 08:09 PM

I'd like to know who the guy is and how long he owned this Judge. Hope he recovers ok..............Geez, what a shame for the car though.

judgethis 08-30-2009 10:08 PM

Man thats sad. Could someone get the deck lid, taillamps, and rear bumper for me.
Like Greg said you guys sure have a good eye. I just have to laugh when you guys pick apart a car and then it starts a debate if its correct or not.

gregsgtos2 08-30-2009 10:13 PM

it is correctly demolished.if it has a posi rear end,ill take that.i see alot of other good parts.how about a salvage auction on ebay?doesnt look like it hurt the pole too bad.
