I recall seeing a post a while back regarding a wrecked C6. It was a photo of the scene of the accident and there wasn't much left of the Vette. I think it was the same color body/interior. The picture was a link to the newpaper that did the story and took the accident photo. I want to say somewhere in Arizona...but not sure....

What's the story on this car? Storm damage, or high speed crash, or....?

Good thing he had the BMW lift pucks in. At least the rocker panels aren't scratched.

If you go to some of the video sites you can find a still photo of this car at the accident scene. The story is that it was a street racing accident at high speed where the Corvette rear ended a semi trailer, effectively going right under the DOT bar. One fatality if I remember correctly.

I think it has the 243/799 head combination on it. The mismatched torque created a huge fluxed magnetic field surge which attracted a nearby comit.
(Oops, just saw the post above. My condolences to friends and family)
