Another Imperial bites the dust.

[crv]

Ok here is my interpretation, the guy is on the highway isnt paying attention to the traffic and sees a truck stopped in front of him and he slams on the brakes, being a drum brake car it pulls hard to the right and skips along the rail a bit then he slams into the back of the truck after bouncing back and a post of steel on the truck punctures his windshield.. But of course I know better, The pictures of what actually happened is obvious and is the third option...can you guess it?

Which is why Jay Leno had his convertible '58 Imperial converted to disc brakes all round.

can you guess it

Some amateur tried to derby it and he didn't make the first 60 seconds before he took it on three sides from the pros.
One of the pros went so far as to take a bite out of the Imp's windshield to scare the final crap out of him.

Lol nope, actually a bit of sleuthing tells a lot, if you have a look at the front of the car you will notice that the front bumper and grille is folded under and the hood is actually sticking further out than it now, the tell tale sign is the grass still caught in the bottom edge of the bumper. This car has left the road and smacked into an embankment and im thinking the white marks on the side is from a painted fence post. The hole is likely from a tree branch as he came to a crashing stop. I have seen a number of cars that have gone off road and slammed into earth embankments before and they all look very much like this.

Not playing fair. You're being logical. Lol
