I'm sure they can slap it all back together at the insurance company's local body shop and it'll be fine. Then it can be sold at a local Ford dealer as pre-owned. Erik

Wasn't there an article on Jalopnik just a few days about "Why the hell do people keep trying to outrun trains?"

It's still a valid question.

lots of times the cars are stuck in bottle-neck traffic and can't move when the arm comes down. Instead of getting out of the car they try to save it.

And did you see that movie Courage Under Fire? Where Lou Diamond Phillips drives head on into a train? Guess what model car he was driving?

Yeah the guy didn't make it. It was pretty crazy driving by when they were working on the car.

I'm sure the local Mustang guys are scrambling to locate what yard the car went to, in this area people do that...as soon as a wrecked Mustang or F-body hit the yards, they're picked of every functional piece.
