There's a photo of that crash in an article on Parillo & Cerrone in a circa 1980 Super Stock & Drag Illustrated issue. The lady came crashing through the side of the garage with her big Cadillac. Thank God no one was working on that side of the car or underneath it! I don't recall it being mentioned in the article that P & C's 'Cuda used parts that formerly belonged to the Carpinet Bros. It did mention Harris Auto Sales but I forget in what context.

I'll have to go look for that issue now to make sure.
