    Yesterday my friend was driving down the interstate in the left hand lane when the person in the right hand lane decided they wanted to change lanes without paying attention to anybody else and out of a natural reaction my friend swerved into the median right into the back of a DOT truck. Long story short here is the aftermath. He wants to fix it up, the car only had 260,000 miles on it.

    Damn, glad everyone was ok. I would bet there might be frame damage with that kind of hit. Were there any witnesses? Did the other car stop?

    The sad thing is he used to have another one the same color and everything but he parted it out and crushed it. All he needs is the frame, the rad support, a hood that fiberglass panel that goes around the front and untweek the doors.

    I don't think they ever used that style of Caprice as a pace car.

    He was referring to another thread where someone took off all the pace car decals.
