This is what happens to nice high-performance cars...

While previewing an auction this morning I came across this Roush Mustang and put it on my list. I usually google the VIN on cars like this just in case something comes up interesting and I laughed when I saw that it just sold about 1k miles ago. Before and after...

Looks like they didn't even replace the tires, just used Armorall.

The post and response from Chris are a bit unclear. It looks like the car was bought then wrecked. Not restored post wreck.

Also, it looks like the driver was t-boned. Not really worth a chuckle considering we don't know who is at fault. I know several people who have been t-boned by a red light runner. My sister has the scars to prove it. T-bonded by a drunk driver.

I thought Dan was interested until he saw the earlier insurance photo dated 4/22/15. If so that's quite a repair.

Bought from a dealer and then wrecked 1k miles later, and that car slid into a pole or a tree, not t-boned. I guess since I buy a couple thousand cars a year and look at thousands more I get used to seeing the damage. I still see the occasional "holy crap" car that keeps it real though.

I'm aver of the club. Drunk college kid ran a red and T-boned me in a new Lincoln MK8 (when these were new). The passenger seat was about 2" wide and the whole car was banana'd. Boy was I glad nobody was in that seat. And the speed limit was His was 30mph limit. The amazing thing is the kid walked away with just bruises and said he wasn't wearing a belt?!
