Default Re: 1969 Camaro RS/SS Azure Turquoise

I had just bought the Camaro 9 days earlier, I was on my way back to my friend's house in a 30 mph zone. Last thing I remember was the rain drops coming over the hood. Somehow the car took a left turn off the road, hit the first tree going sideways into the right rear wheel, rotated around that tree and went forward over the driveway lamp and into the final tree. I was ejected out the passenger window hitting the first tree, broke my back and jaw. Years later I was looking at a Shelby GT350 on the same street, mentioned the accident and they gave me a series of pictures they had taken of the scene. My example of not doing something stupid and almost getting killed. Hard to express to young kids how quickly a car can get in trouble, or us old kids for that matter.
