It happen about 20 mnutes outside of Sevierville. Honestly I dont know what I'm going to do with it.I'm going this weekend to get it. I have a 57 in the garage as well so..... I tthink the fact that I had a bunch of heavy metal across the front and it's so low kinda helped me and deflected the blow either way I consider myself very lucky.

Scott...sorry to learn about your wreck man!!! I know its redundant but sure am glad the Good Lord was watching out for you and that it wasnt a LOT worse.
Though I really liked that car it can be replaced and im sure you will have another up and going in no time.
Take care and heal well!!!

Thanks for all your prayers and good wishes. I'm up and limpin around another few days I'll be back at it.
The insurance companie let me buy the car back and will bring it home for me so I can get my stuff off it. i already found a replacement for the time being and if I feel better I might go get it this weekend.
Thinking about a reinforced roll cage tho. :lol:

When you look at the pictures you are truly lucky.  If they had been on the right side of the road - it could have killed you....... :shock:  You had someone looking out for you for sure.

At least with the $ you could buy the '67 back.  You know it is a good car, you built it.
