Crashed 84
Hello everyone. There was a crash locally where I live involving an 84 Corvette. Is there any way find out how fast it was going before the crash? I know it is too early for a STM. The dash is digital.

If this is the MN one, with the four 20+ year olds in it...
I wouldn't worry about touching it.
It's evidence, 3 people died in it. I'm sure the only survivor (driver) will have it crushed someday.
Who would really want a piece out of a Vette that somebody died in anyways?
(maybe i'm not getting something here, i mean i know it's hard to find dashes, but come on! Anytime would be WAY TOO SOON to ask!)
They say the driver was going around 100mph, and was pressed behind the wheel, but survived. Don't know if the dash even works still...
Did you want to call him to ask?
if this is a different one, and nobody died in it... Sorry! Then it would be a different story!

i do not think he was asking because he wanted to buy the IP 
(atleast I hope not)
I think (could be wrong) he was asking how could they tell how fast the car was going due to the car (black box, dash, etc) would not tell them???
If this IS the question, it has to do with skid marks and how far the car or parts traveled. I am sure there is a lot of math figures and formulas involved.

I thought it might be :
Salvage Title something or other.
Either way........"Sell To Me" or the other.............
Just seems a bit wrong to myself (and the wife).
We both agree that it almost sounds like ambulance chasing lawyers to us.
Plenty of offense meant to ambulance chasers (not meant for all lawyers BTW (don't feel like getting sued for slander or anything (just for the Azzhat ones)))!
What happened to the OP anyway????
