    (REBUILD PICS START ON PAGE 6)

    Towaholic (Lance) called me at work today and let me know that "Bull" on the hamb was in in accident in his 30/31 sedan today, sounds like he got banged up pretty bad, broken leg (badly) and some other things, cars really f----ed up too (but that dont really matter). some lady took a left in front of him while he was going about 55mph.

    Get well soon Adam.

    Just got off the phone with Adam and he is doing as well as can be expected. Broken wrist, shattered knee, and a few cuts. He will be in surgery tomorrow afternoon to repair the damage to his knee.
    He is in good spirits and wanted everyone to know he is doing ok and appreciates everyones support.
    He was glad to be wearing at least a lap belt and atributes that to his lack of serious injury.

    He is in our family's prayers and hope he recovers soon.

    Just got of the phone with Bull. broken up knee, broken wrist and some lacerations to his legs. he's on good drugs and sounding pretty good. he has surgery on his knee tommorrow.

    His car took a bad hit. bent frame, both front and rear axles broke the block right at the mount, twisted doors and cowl.

    If anybody knows of some recent sales of a car or cars simmular they could be really helpful when the insurance guy comes out. the car can defenantly be fixed but it needs alot. Just glad my friend is doing ok.

    Hope he has a quick recovery. It's a good thing he was wearing his seatbelt!

    I don't know Bull :))), but wish him a speedy recovery.

    And, that last pic sure makes me think again about all the comments made saying cast axles will break like a twig.

    Jesus. I hope he's ok. Get well soon dude.

    This hits home for me because it was that exact situation that happened to one of my best friends.

    Driving down a straight road and some azzbag turns left right in front of him.
    He had a badly torn ACL and was off work for a year.

    I wish bull a speedy recovery.

    Don Dillard was recently in an accident very similar to this. Remember that wonderful old Deuce roadster damaged much the same as this car. You have to drive VERY defensively in these cars of ours and even then the stupidity of the civilians will get you.
    Here's hoping your friend recovers from his injuries in short order.

    I cant see the accident pictures through the work computer but, it makes me want to build a roll cage that extends into the cowl and runs across the inside of the firewall. Scary stuff for sure

    Just got back from visiting with my bro Bull. He is enjoying all of the pain meds they can give him! He appreciates your thoughts and comments. As he read the replys from his bed today he got a small smile on his face. However looking at the pictures of his car for the first time was very hard for him. Thank you from the Hot Rod Family for all of your support. Adam has sure got some awesome friends!!!
