Please excuse me if I should'nt have posted this here. It was part of me getting my current Mustang.
In 1995 I had just traded in my 2003 Intrepid ES for a 1995 Mustang GT that had to be factory ordered (because of the 3.08 rear end I wanted). While waiting for the Mustang to arrive, I had an end-over-end rollover and landed on the roof on a submerged tree stump in a drainage ditch running parallel to the highway. A doofus in a Jeep did a U-turn right in front of me, my right front climbed up over his left front and up and over I went. I nearly drowned, was nearly decapitated but it wasn't my time to go. All the other guy got was a $123 ticket for unsafe lane change and his left front suspension torn off and thrown about 150 feet down the road.
It was to be my first day on a new engineering development contract, replacing a contractor who was fired for always being late! Needless to say I was a bit late to work.
Wonder if I'd have survived in either my 1995 Mustang GT or 2004 Mustang GT? It made we want a roll bar in every car I own!
There are a few more pictures in my garage.
