On that 2nd post I had to find the tail light to figure what it was. (have one, same color on the next street). I assume that is what they call "totaled"
Never heard of a Face Vega before.
Reno has one of the largest car shows in the USA every year. Hot August Nights. For 1 week there is an additional 5-7,000 antique autos in our city. You have never seen so many 55 Chevy's and mustangs in one place!

I'm guessing by weight that 'Cuda was split almost perfectly in half.

And sadly someone did not walk away from that accident. They must have been go awfully fast and hit a pole sideways.

I had my E9 in HAN for a couple of years. There were 2 Isetta's, also in those years.
But HAN mostly for hotrods and American brands.

The car stirs memories. Several Hollywood/star types had these in the day. Maybe Dean Martin? I always thought of it as a "more money than sense" kind of car..but unique and beautiful in a French way. I would love to have just the car for the interior; just incredible, style and detail that few cars had ever...(Bugatti?) I can only guess that the starter still makes that awful Chrysler sound tho...Every day of my youth, I awoke to that terrible screechy noise from my next door neighbor's Newport cranking up...sorry, got a little nostalgic there...:)
