I hope no one was hurt! It's in Ca.

The good of these photos is that it appears the roof held up quit well in a roll over!

Looks pretty good for a rollover without a rollcage. Wish I could say the same for my old dragon green VX.
Needless to say, the VX stands up pretty damned well in collisions.

Wow; you can really see where the roll cage saved the driver's bean. The front windshiled is deformed, the back driver's corner is mashed, but the driver's area is intact. Very nice.
And 4153 becomes 4152 left....
(Wormgod - is that your accident? It looks like a front impact where the Jaws of Life chopped the roof off to rescue the driver.)
All over: wow.

Uh, Steve, not to split hairs, but that's Kaiser silver.
Speaking of hairs, mine are becoming silver, not gray

Thanks, Rick.
Yep, it was a front end collision. Didnt feel so well either. That particular time, I wished the impact had knocked me unconscious, but I wasnt lucky enough and ended up sitting there watching them tear the VX apart to get me out, and clenching my fists in pain as my foot was mangled in the twisted metal of the floorboard.
But, seeing the jaws of life in action (upclose and personal!) and getting medivac'ed out was at least a highlight.... not to mention the morphine.
