Katie saw that car on the tow truck along the 52 last week. She said it was mangled and the pictures sure confirm that. Glad to see no one was seriously hurt.

He faired very well considering the square. When I saw the car in person I was amazed he was still with us! This is what happens to our cars when its struck by an SUV doing 55-65ish. He hit the car in front then rolled. His chest type belt didnt hold him and it shot him out tward the back. The seat poped off the rails and he flopped around in the car a bit. He suffered a fractured neck and some abrasions. Almost every bit on the square is bent. http://www.thesamba.com/vw/forum/album_search.php?search_keywords=Ron+Sm iths+Wild+Ride%21%21%21&search_terms=all jason ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~ Shameless link for search engines: http://listarchive.type3.org ~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
