Lets see if I can post a picture.

It's not how you get into these things, but how you get out of them.

Now what is the story behind that  ::)

Hope nobody was in that car when that happened.  :o

Apparently you can't post pictures yet because you left out the driver and passenger seats.   ;)  :D :D  I hope that was the tree faller's car.

     I'd like to hear about this too.  Nothing red leaking out, so it sure could've been worse.

It's rather obvious no one was in it when it happened.  If there had been it wouldn't still be sitting there
all in one piece with that smooth curved top.  ::)

Too bad.  I'd also like to hear the story of how it happened.

they say when you hurt a bull he will blink his eyes. that car is half hurt by that measure!

we got hit by a severe thunderstorm on the 4th of july about 14 years ago 6 am and lightening struck a tree just outside my bedroom window about 15'. the noise was so loud in the house it broke some windows. blew up everything electrical in the house. my pickup was sitting just the other side of the tree and looked like a brush pile. i feared it would look like this car. when i cleaned the limbs off it only had some knuckle bumps and a broken drivers door glass. i was lucky twice. i have seen anmals killed by lightening strikes that were farther from the tree than i was and my puckup wasnt hurt all that bad. pc

Sorry guys, I don't have the story behind this one because a friend sent me the picture. I just thought I should share it with other Forumites.
All I can tell you is that I did not fell the tree, honest.

The last windstorm that came thru here, knocked over a 38" pine tree, it laid lengthwise of an older Cadillac that was just about as flat. I had to lift the tree off in 8' sections. This log had a lot of glass imbedded in the bark and the pitch.
