Re: '69 Z28 Wreck
I had just bought the car a week earlier, the sign might have come out of the car and they put it back on the car. I remember slowing down in the 30 mph street earlier in the week. I don't remember anything about the wreck, the last I remember was the rain coming over the hood turning down the street I wrecked on. I had left Blue Island after taking a friend to pick up his 455 '76 TA after being repaired from an earlier accident. He tells me "now its your turn for an accident", thanks Bob! We both drove to his house in Arlington Heights, I crashed 2 blocks from his house. The car took a left turn off the road, I always wondered if the left front tire blew out. I do remember something about the Fireston 500's and the recall. The cops gave me something like 10 tickets, reckless driving, etc. I did get off those, as if they were there to see what happened. Years later I was talking to neighbors with a GT350 Shelby, they were the ones who took the pictures. It still doesn't seem real after all these years.
