What, exactly, do you have to hit, and at what speed to do that to a wheel/fender. Sheesh. Passengers cabin is barely dinged, though. Love these old tanks!

Looks like he was pissing around with the radio drifted off to the left and hit a bridge abuttment or a culvert.

He had to have been going a decent speed too, to get that kind of damage

ouch is right! DAMN! I would buy it the $10 current bid. Plenty of parts still good, complete interior, drivetrain, rear sheet metal, etc...

I think you'd be surprised, and depressed, at how slowly you can be going and still get that kind of damage. Looks like a telephone pole and I'd guess 30-40mph.

The requirement for a 25% deposit seems a bit rich for my blood.

Wonder if he would accept US Postage Stamps to pay for the deposit? Costs me $6 to get a cashiere's check.............

As most people would be down right horrified at the damage done to a late model car at next to no speed. I see it every day(salvage yard).

And even more horrified if you survive it and have to pay to have your plastic tinkertoy fixed.

Looks like that w123 crumpled and absorbed impact while preserving the cabin pretty well. I betcha the seatbelt retractor did not work correctly if that is a head mark on the windscreen.
