A guy wants to trade his 87 coupe for my chevy 1500 truck. So i got to look at it and it's pretty sweet, primered, 5 lug swap, rear disk brakes, cowl hood, hurst shifter, 410 gears. So hes like i'll take you for a ride. We get on a back road and he kicks it side ways and it goes to the right back to the left and back to the right and he loses control and we hit/jump and embankment and go threw a bunch of trees and about 30/40ft into the woods it stops after the wheel catches a tree. I'm fine and he's fine. I leave and call him later and he pulled the car out with his wrecker and he says he drove it home but it now needs a drivers fender so i'm going back tomorow and getting it. So it will be in my driveway tomorow:thumbsup1:

Thats wild. Ihad a friend that had a similar experience, but they didn't wreck. They stopped sideways in the middle of the road.

Sounds like you both got lucky.:yes1: I would look over the coupe again before buying it, he says all it needs is a fender. But you never know what other damage might have occurred.

he should, i could had called the cops and sued his insurance but i was being cool about it, but the moral of the story is not to let anybody drive you that you don't know

he's just lucky it wasn't mine. i walked up to the guy didn't ask how he was or anything. i just said well i guess you just bought a mustang.

i knew i should of just traded my bronco for that stang. it was in decent shape. would of been a great project. was a rare color too.

Wow what a dumbass. 2 tabs and watch cartoons. Now don't take offense to this quin. I don't mean anything by it. Why was the owner driving the car that you were "test driving?" Just curious.
