Hey Dennis...no injuries except to my bank account . The bezel wasn't installed...actually I'm going to take this opportunity to finally get it finished the way I wanted to with the gauges while it's in the shop. Still haven't forgot to get you pics when it's done.

So that's the "murdered out" look I've been hearing so much about.

Looked perfect before, I would have left it alone.

I went UNDER the rear of a Honda SUV. His car was resting on my windshield. Absoultley no engine damage, having the frame meticulously check out next week and the process of putting humpty dumpty back together again will commence.

BTW, no airbag deployment or seatbelt lockout on the C5

Do you have a coupe or a FRC ? Looks like the drivers "A" member is bent some.

Lots of cosmetic damage , does not look to be too bad if "A" member is not bent. On a FRC, the roof would have to come off

Dude, hope you and the other driver came out OK. Car looks very repairable although it would tear me up inside to see my baby looking like that. Best wishes on the rebuild and keep us posted.
