Local cruise - poor GTO!

Tried out a new cruise spot this past Saturday night, and was surprised to see a mile long line to get in - especially since the lot couldn't hold more than 150 cars! GTO was waiting to turn left into the lot, and was rearended by two girls driving a Honda. The impact pushed the Judge into the other lane where it was punched by a Dodge coming the other way. Bummer!

The cruise site was excellent however, even won a door prize. CeGee's in Blandon/Fleetwood, PA.

OUCH! Thats a lot of damage, hope the party that hit him has good insurance and sure hope had that car appraised right? Sorry to see any Muscle Car get creamed.... hope everyone involved was not hurt.

Hope everyone is OK.

Sorry to see that GTO damage though.

That sucks- I am always worried when driving my car around.

Boy that sucks... A number of years ago a 69 Camaro Z28 got whacked by some idiot while pulling out from a local Sunday nite cruise inn spot.. That car was a mess also.. I really feel for these people that have this happen.. I guess it is the risk you take with driving them..

That's gonna be expensive. I bet the frames tweaked. Bummer.

Not throwing stones at this poor Goat owner, but I was taught way back when to keep the wheels straight ahead while waiting to make a turn, just in case you get rear-ended so you will not be sent into on coming traffic. REally tuff break. Hope there were no serious injuries.

That frame is surely more than tweaked, the right side of the rear bumper is into the tire!

The two girls in the Honda were ambulanced, not life threatening. Everyone else appeared to be ok.

The GTO did have the front wheels straight, the Honda hit more so in the right rear and pushed the rear of the GTO into the other lane - thank goodness, otherwise it may have been a slam from behind and a subsequent head on with the Dodge!

That's tough to look at, any time a vintage musclecar gets damaged. Good to hear the driver had the wheels straight...if wheels are turned in anticipation of a turn, he would be deemed 'at fault' for oncoming damages.

Man, that looks nasty! I forgot about CeeGee's. Fleetwood Blandon Rd. can be a mess at the wrong time. That looks like the case here.
