He's a friend of one of the guys in a group I belong to. The accelerator pedal arm bend to the left, and got pinned under the brake pedal.....when he slammed on the brakes, it floored the car and basically caused the car to full throttle plow into the concrete barrier.

Very sad to see that car like that, I love those early cudas.
Looked like the whole time he was pushing it harder than the car was safely capable of. I knew the wreck was coming and first time watching it I saw about 10 times I thought for sure this is it!

The car is setting at Best of Show Coachworks in Escondido, CA. They are going to pull the frame and try to rebuild it. A fools errand if you as me.

I've always said that with enough time, money, and ambition, there is nothing that can't be done. I think this is going to take lots of all three but it's doable.
