Holy crap! Glad you're OK, that was a heckuva lick that car took.

I am sorry to hear about the loss. I too had a 400E save my life right after i restored it. I rolled mine and it looked quite a bit better than yours but what it did was to make me a true believer in the safety of these cars.

I am not sure what I am going to do with the salvage.
Good for you that you're OK.
If you decide what to do with the car, let me know.
I'm interested in :
- airbox behind headlight L and R
- hoses for airfilter to airboxes L and R
- black plastic cover between thermostat and airfilter
WOW! that is way more damage that I expected to see when you described the accident! But obviously the impact was intense. The cabin held up incredibly well.
I can't imagine you don't have some sort of whiplash or something.
