Such a shame
This 1960 Bel Air was a daily driver until recently.
A woman drove this car everyday to her work at a hospital here in Fremont Ca. She would take it for service at this restored gas station down the road from me here in Niles (a small historic community in Fremont). I took several photos of this old run down ‘60 a couple years ago. Then one day I’m driving through Niles and I see this ….. such a shame. Someone plowed into the back of her cool old car. I was told she was fine but her daily driver is no more.

A tall tree and a short rope for the perpetrator I say...
Glad she is ok, but yes, such a shame...

Odds are cell phone usage was the cause.
My step son has been rear ended twice. Both drivers admitted to looking at cell phones instead of the road.

This ^^^ is the main reason I’m reluctant to drive my Survivors any more.

Very sad to see, and I doubt she is "OK". A hit that severe and no headrests surely resulted in a bad whiplash that will now haunt her for the rest of her days. I hope she is seeking medical and professional therapy recovery for this and the sooner the better, for any favorable outcome. I know many people who blow off the pain and stiffness as "temporary" and end up with a worsening condition....unfortunately, personal experience talking here...

That is terrible. Do you know my good friend Nate in Niles? He has a 58 Caddy and a 56 Buick. He hangs out at the flying A a lot.
