They took all that and left 1 of the most sought after rear ends?

If I were a betting man, I'd say they probably took the 8.5 out & stuck a 7.5 rear under it just so they could tow it to it's location by it's rear wheels and quickly unhook it/leave it for dead.
 
Found some more I had.... :eek:

Jim, what's the story with the one with the fender vents and the top cut off? Was it wrapped around a tree via the driver side door...? Certainly the driver didn't make it?

Also the one burned T top looks to have the same rims on it as TFAF4 movie car..

Driver did make it. That was a real GNX and if you search around the boards here you'll see where they took that vin and moved it over to a GN and moved all the GNX parts over to the donor GN and turned that GN into what this GNX use to be! :eek:

Also the one burned T top looks to have the same rims on it as TFAF4 movie car..

I'm pretty sure that pic was taken way before the movie came out. Might just be a coincidence.

That was the GNX that was in a police chase. There was a long thread about this a while earlier, Someone was taking off stuff to clone or re-number another car. Forget the number. I think the driver barely survived.
 
here is one i remember like it was yesterday...i wonder if anyone has some pics.

GROOM AND BEST MAN KILLED IN CAR CRASH AFTER L.I. WEDDING
Published: April 4, 1987



A 27-year-old Long Island man, who had just been married, and his best man were killed on the way to a wedding reception in Lido Beach yesterday when a speeding car slammed into their limousine.

Five other people, including the bride and the maid of honor, were also injured.

The groom, Peter Phillips of Levittown, L.I., and his brother and best man, John J. Phillips, 30, of Islip, were killed.

The bride, Carol Ann Zagorski, 24, and her sister, Debby Zagorski, 21, both of North Massapequa, were also riding in the 1985 Cadillac stretch limousine. They were both listed in critical condition at Nassau County Medical Center in East Meadow. Collision Near Reception Hall

According to the Nassau County Police, the accident happened about 5:55 P.M. when a 1987 Buick Grand National traveling eastbound on Lido Boulevard crashed into the westbound limousine. The limousine was making a left-hand turn across a stretch of the four-lane thoroughfare into the Sands Beach Club in Lido Beach, where a reception honoring the newlyweds was planned for 7 P.M.

The bride and groom had been married minutes earlier at St. James Roman Catholic Church in Seaford, L.I.

Members of the bridal party who had been trailing the limousine spilled from their cars after the crash. Some of the guests, dressed in tuxedos and formal dresses, dashed to the wreck to help the injured passengers, while others collapsed to the ground screaming and in tears, according to the police.

The driver of the Buick, Vincent Laezza, 21, of Selden, L.I., was listed in fair condition at South Nassau Community Hospital in Oceanside. A passenger, Daren Bovino, 19, also of Selden, was listed in critical condition at Long Beach Memorial Hospital in Long Beach.

The driver of the limousine, Thomas Quinn, 29, of Palisades Park, N.J., was listed in fair condition at South Nassau Community Hospital.

The police said the case was under investigation and that no charges had been filed. However, a police spokesman, Detective Nick D'Avanzo, said that ''it appears that the Laezza vehicle was in excess of the 40-miles-per-hour speed zone.''

autodynamics

i have heard a million versions of that story and the most popular is that
Two cars whir drag racing and the lead car hit the limo while the other car was able to go around and keep on going. Rumor has it that the "Other" car was a Mustang. Rumor also has it the driver of the lead car got ten years in jail.

BTW as many times that i have heard that story i never new that the car involved in the accident was a GN.
