Thats terrible, how do you know it was your old car?

Upside-down in a convertible is a bad thing.

Wonder if it was another broken rear knuckle that caused a loss of control, catching 1st gear instead of 3rd while accelerating, or just trying to impress the girl and things went wrong.

I'd be curious to see pictures of the car as I'd like to know how the top structure held up. I realize it's nothing like a coupe, but it would still be interesting nonetheless to have some more insight into it. I know they aren't marketed as such, but I wonder how the roll hoops survived. People knock on them all the time, but I've yet to see a wrecked Viper where they are missing or even damaged that badly.

The police department called my parents and we're looking for me. Not sure why they called them. They never got a hold of me.

That is terrible, was it the young 25 year old that bought it off you? Must of been a hard hit if the car rolled over.

Maybe the guy never titled it..And it was still titled under your name.

 

[04 SRT10]

He titled it. He bought it to flip and was going to try to leave it in my name. I "encouraged" him not to and he sent copy of title in his name. The guy was 30 that I sold it to.

 

[DaJerseyViper]

So why did the police try and contact you? did you ever see what they wanted?

 

[04 SRT10]

No. Never heard. They never called me and I didn't find out til last weekend.
