I have been tring to get some help to post pictures of this story with no help. The 69 Pace Car camaro that was pictured here in the Turkey Rod run friday picts met an untimely end on its way home last week. A very good friend of mine bought it and was tranporting it back home to Pa. I left Daytona Sunday at noon headed back to Pa only to encounter 3 accidents slowing 95 just north of Daytona, cruised thru Georgia to wind up stopped just south of the South Carolina border, i had exited to get food when my phone rang . My paniced neihbor told me he had been in an accident at mile marker 5 in S.C. and he needed my help. It took me an hour to get 5 miles. What I saw was not easy on the stomach but he was unheart. His Duramax dually, 35 foot 2 car trailer and 69 Pace car got tangled up and slid jacknknifed backwards down a 65 foot ravine rolling everything over and over. You wont beleive someone walked away from this. I need help to post the rest of the pictures on here .

I can only post camera phone pictures here need some help to post the others.
Heres the truck it lost all the front suspension, the trailer rolled onto the cab crushing the pass side down to the seats and then again on the pass side, ripped the bed right off of it.!!! Jim |

After having I95 shut down for 2 hours and 4 hours to recover everything out of the ravine I towed the flipped trailer and the pace car back home 700 miles. A white knuckle ride as the trailer and car were way to much for my 2500 Surburban
