A neighbor down the street from my parents house bought one of these brand new. He let a friend drive it. The friend hit a telephone pole about 4 miles away and split the car into 3 pieces. Motor, front clip, everything else. The kid died.
I can still remember the pictures on the front page of the local newspaper of all of the parts scattered in the street with the body under a sheet in the middle of them. I was 11.
