July 23, 200519 yr comment_131661 Nope... I'm pretty confident that's an old AMX.TomWell, let me see, here is the entire Group 6 grid from Road America's site and it lists every car. All listed as DNS (did not start) due to red flag at start of race and race not restarted. I don't seem to see an AMX in this list. Do any of you? Looks to be car #86 driven by Bruce Leven which as stated is a Corvette. Sorry to rain on the AMX parade. If you look at ALL the pics of this car you'll notice the funky hood in one pic, and the curvature of the door sill is classic Corvette.Chris Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/16633-classic-car-destruction/?&page=3#findComment-131661 Share on other sites More sharing options...
July 23, 200519 yr comment_131665 You're right - if you look at this pic it's clearer. Definite 'vette door, the "Stingray" badge is still on there too...

July 23, 200519 yr Author comment_131666 Its a vette. Heres a clearer picture without the gurney in the way. You can tell it's a vette by the shape of the door, and the fact that it's a firbreglass shell that has cracked open in places, like that crack running up the roof, and how the door had a large hole in it. Metal dents, firbreglass cracks and comes off in chunks.

July 24, 200519 yr comment_131818 It's that non corvette back window that's screwing us all up... I never thought a vette could be confused for an AMX, but I guess I was wrong..It looks like it is number 86, Bruce Leven's 69 Corvette...Tom Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/16633-classic-car-destruction/?&page=3#findComment-131818 Share on other sites More sharing options...
July 25, 200519 yr comment_131909 Yes, it's definitely a Corvette. Fiberglass pieces missing everywhere and yes, I see the Stingray emblem. The rear window and deck are so flattened out and misshapen that it doesn't even look like a Vette. A total loss.
