Telephone pole ate my car - 1988 90q

[Larry C Leung]

Brendan,

I feel your pain. Had a similar incident happen to my 7 regional
SCCA Solo2 championship winning GTi, except it was a Japanese
red maple that bisected the roof of the car, Zagato style. Of course
that was better than the 80 ft oak that trashed the kitchen of my Mom's
house during the same storm. Best of luck to you.
