Got hit by a train...or..we ran into the train in a Superbee.

I wasn't the driver.....But the driver...drove that baby perfect....

It's a long story.

We all... three of us...survived,.,,No injuries.

Drove it back to town...

He missed one detail; in the trunk there is a set of steel u-channels which form the support for the wing. Early test models without them would end up with wrinkles in the quarter panels from the 300+ pounds of downforce the wing would generate. The support ties the frame rails to the underside of the top of the quarter panel, where a large (12” x 24” approx) “washer” sat supporting the wing.

RE: 14

Wow. That brings back memories!
I had a ‘70 Dodge SuperBee I stupidly sold to some goofy chick before I left for Basic Training.

2 weeks later she hit a train! Totaled it. No on hurt.

Glad you all were okay too....
