Right you are! A couple of kids coming into the hood too fast. There's a pretty tight right hander about 70 yards downhill to the right of the photo. I assume they got a bit sideways, clipped the sign and rock and did an impressive pirouette landing the car on it's nose against the tree. It did draw a crowd of admirers. Luckily both were fine. As I drove in the two kids (Boy and Girl) were leaned against an SUV about 30 yards away. The local policeman had his back to them, hands on his hips staring at the scene... it took me a moment to comprehend what he was looking at.

^^Nice! And you have the HiPo Pontiac motor instead of the Olds motor.

The Point Class cutters were an interesting lot. A few saw service in Vietnam.

Morro Bay: Point Heyer on the far side and Point Winslow on the near side, early 1990's.
