Another Wrecked 32,,and he walked away

I posted this along with the update on Luthers accident but thought this might make some of us re-thing seat belt,,,Ken and his ex-wife were wearing them and they were able to walk away from the wreck.

Ken is one of our other members, a transplant from Florida and a past NSRA state inspector told the story of his accident in a 32 Ford 4 door sedan and he was lucky enough to walk away from the wreck with only minor cuts and s****es,,he said he would E-mail the photos when he got home.

The story was relayed to me that he was driving at night on a road he was unfamilur with and a posted speed limit of 35 MPH,,he said he was doing in excess of 55 MPH started around a curve and thinks he ran over something in the road and cut the tire,,

Driving too fast and oversteering he ran off the shoulder of the road and fliped the car twice and hit a tree.

I just recieved them and can hardly believe he was able to walk away from this mangled mess!

Some of you Florida guys might remember Ken,,he built another 32 Ford 4 door and painted it just like the one he distroyed several years ago.

 

just goes to show the dont build em like they use to!!,hard to belive he walked away from that wreck

 

Glad he's alright, ****s about the car

 

Ken dis-located is left shoulder and his ex-wife broke her wrist,,,he says the both had minor cuts and scratches and a bunch of black and blue marks.

Again,,it speaks volumes for the use of seat belts. HRP

 

yikes.

 

Look at the back. That thing slid on its tail with the nose in the air! Must have been one hell of a ride!

 

Dear Lord! Glad he's okay.

 

DAMN..I just bought a set for my 56 ,they go in this weekend!!!! again DAMN

 

**** a duck what a mess.They are lucky!

 

WOW! That is CRAZY! Glad they are okay!

And this is EXACTLY the reason my car will have belts!

 

wow, god blessed them!!

 

more proof to disprove that fake accident with the new car they have posted on youtube.

 

Glad he's ok, but I think there should be a law that if you destroy a '32 Ford you should never be able to own another one.


JOE

 

I'm sure he's suffered enough with it being destroyed as it is.

 

Good grief, is that 2 in one week? Hope they are heal up quickly. How is the other guy doing from the other crash?

 

Joe, If your going to circulate a pe***ion send me a copy and you'll have my signature. I'm sure Randy (Deuce Roadster) will add his also.

Frank

 

That'll buff right out.

 

Yes I would sign it ...

BUT ... I know Ken and he is a good guy ... and goes to a good many of the same events I go.

He does regret the wreck

 

Man I'm glad that there ok the car is a total loss ,glad they had seat belts on and there ok.

 

Very glad to read they are both okay but jeeze... 55mph in a posted 35mph zone, in the dark, on a road he doesn't know? Was he still dizzy from wrecking his other 32?

 

wow. that is truly incredible. even with seatbelts i am shocked that they walked away un****hed.

 

Wow I'm glad he walked away. That car can be saved though. I've seen worse rebuilt.

 

Out of curiosity. Did he just have lap belts or were there shoulder belts in there also?

 

My question as well.

 

wow. looks like his wife wasn't the only co-pilot he had that day.

 

Wow,what a mess. I'm glad to here everyone is in pretty good shape,could have been worse. Good Luck to both Ken and his wife.

 

paging Jim Sibley...

 

Hmmmmm... note to self, do not paint car blue...

 

The 4 door belonged to Ken,,this accident was several years ago,,I just got the photos today.

Luther is the guy who wrecked the roadster this past Sunday and is at home,,he will be ok in a few weeks.

We all make stupid mistakes and Ken admitted that it was his,,

and again this was a while ago,,
The roadster accident was Sunday and that car belonged to Luther.,,both guys are in the same club.

The car was too far gone,,so it wasn't rebuilt.

No,,just lap belts.

You can say that again,,,Ken firmly believes that!

 

It's all in how you hit/are hit, how fast, angle of approach, deceleration g-forces, thrown from vehicle or not...so many variables that NO crash test can accurately simulate how a person in a vehicle will end up.

I know a guy that was killed in an accident in a parking lot. He was driving less than ten miles per hour! Figure that one.
