N J Turnpike 911. OUCH!
Saturday on the N J Turnpike we saw a red 911 with what looked like a collapsed front end ready to be dragged onto a flatbed. If the skidmarks on the highway were the 911's, they started in the middle lane and slowly trailed over to the shoulder, where the car sat.
Maybe a seized bearing or caliper? Does anyone know who the poor fellow was, and what happened? I would have stopped, but he already had help and I didn't want to make him feel any worse.. Ouch Paul

Paul,
About what year was the 911? If it was a water pumper then you shouldn't feel bad about not stopping. Oh, wait, it couldn't be a water pumper, those aren't real 911s.

Late 70's to mid 80's. Coulda been an SC, maybe, Red.
