totalled my cobra II...
the drivers side upper ball joint came off as i was rounding a corner, and my steering just like...stopped. i hit a pole, flew over a curb, did a little 180* and stopped.
dont worry, im just, i saw it coming so i had time to brace myself.
what a great way to start of a saturday, huh?

the engine is sitting about two inches further back than it should be, and the front of the motor is cocked about 5* to the passenger side.
the frame is CROOKED. i hit the pole directly head on from the drivers perspective, and thats also where a large peice of the frame is, so yes. its a goner.

damn dude, im soo sorry to hear that and to see that pic, like everyone told me when i totaled mine. "well, at least you're alive". even if the car is gone, it looks like you can get alot off of it or from the motor, do you have collision on your insurance?

thanks for the sympathy guys.
i only had plpd, so its a lost cause.
i plan on taking the motor and transmission out, and swapping it for a 1987 mustang GT with no motor/tranny that had its GT ground effects taken off, and its pink. i'll rattle can it primer within hours of owning it, if i can get it. i need a truck and a trailer to go the memphis area. the guy lives in texas and he wants to meet halfway.
