I have a question about your tires. How old and what brand? Jeff
Pirelli P-Zeros purchased new about a year ago. Manufactured in January of 07. Never a nail.

Dude, that really sucks. But you know how much worse it could have been.
It doesn't look that bad. Not even close to a right-off. Just a little time and insurance aggro and it will be back better than before.
And btw, Porsches spin too. And cost a lot more to fix when this happens! Keep us posted.
quote:Interesting to see you have fiber flares and how they held up. I have heard many "stories" of Pantera folks and vendors of how you bump a fiber fender with your leg and it can come loose. However, on your car you can see although the fenders got wacked hard as hell, they are still intact and didn't come flying off.

I live in Vegas. I don't have the slightest idea what you are talking about. I only recently learned that there are different tires for different seasons??? :-)

What about the Campi wheel that was attached to it? Finding a replacemnent 14" width would be a challenge.

The question is, do you have a new quote to go with your avatar as a result of the experience? Michel's is priceless "Man, the Pantera is spacious, upside down you can lie flat on the padded roof!"

Wrecked the Pantera.

Long story short: going around curve to get on freeway. Hit something slippery and tires don't just break loose, they spin like on ice. Car goes sidways and points me at a wall on the right. I take my foot off the gas (mistake) and the car spins around the other way and shoots me out into light traffic.

Not sure yet if it can be fixed. It will be a simple numbers game for the insurance company.
