Ouch, my poor Z28

[TimG]

My son had on his lap belt only and was going about 30 to 35 when he colided with the little Chevy. It appears that the other carrier is ready to accept liability, they took both drivers statements and the young girl admitted to turning in front of the Z28. The roof is buckled a bit and the passenger door isn’t bent, but it has no gap between the rear and the quarter panel. The drag link is bent, but the controll arms look good. All the bumper braces are shot and the radiator is shoved into the engine. The engine is fine and didn’t move.
Good idea about the surverlence cameras. I’ll check. Thanks for all the support, I appreciate it. I would rather be paid for the car and move on, there appears to be lots of interest in the car as is.

Lots of interest as it is a very solid numbers matching piece.
Much rather start with that car and pull it than to piece together a rust bucket project with new metal.

I don't know your plans for the repair, but if you need a roof, I have one in the garage (original Chevy) you can have. All you have to do is come get it. LOL...us 2nd Gen guys have to stick together.

[TimG]

You guys are great. I spoke with a Corvette restorer in Houston that's interested in the car and he said the roof would be a fairly simple repair. He knew just what needed to be done. He and his brother have restored hundreds of Corvettes and they'd like this project as they started out in the body business about 40 years ago.

Someone requested pictures of the crease in the roof and the door, but I deleted the message by accident. Sorry, if you send me the PM again, I'll respond.
