I didn't get any photos before the headlights and bumper were removed, but this'll do. These were taken back in 2002.

This was my daughters 1994 R33 GTS Skyline.We bought it for her 17th Birthday,we owned it 11 days.She got her red P;s and wrote it off 4 days later.She slammed the brakes on on a wet road when a fox ran in front of her.She was on a sharp bend at the time,it flipped the car and rolled along an embankment.All 3 in the car walked away.Let me know if you need more pic's[IMG][/IMG]

A fox is a FERAL animal. Tell her not to brake for them next time.

Not impressed with the Skylines structural roof strength.
Particularly nice job on the yellow XR.

This was shown at a Swedish bike show to show people what can happen if you make the wrong decisions. The bike was estimated to be travelling at 250ks and would have travelled over 300ft before the rider could make a decision on what to do. So reckon he had no time to even react. If showing this saved one life it would have been worth it.

ahhhhh, yes. quite. Depends on the kid though. I've never had an accident and I had a GTiR pulsar when I was 19. This is a whole other thread though methinks. :

While visiting a museum the owner told us how many GT's in the early 70's were reshelled with blank shells from the factory, restamped and onsold.
It was said it was a triffing buissnes back then, dealing/repairing written off (insurance) Gt's and also monaro's. So there must be some serious amount of reshelled, nonoriginal GT's now still running arround and almost impossible to detect.
