Re: 1960 GMC K1000 4x4

Once upon a time I was driving my wifes first 72 LeMans that she had not seen yet after I had picked it up for her, and had a similar incident.

I was coming up and over an overpass that was icy in Oklahoma...car in right hand lane lost control and smashed into right side bridge retainer wall, which swung his rearend into the front passenger side of the guy in left hand lane.

I was coming up on them at a good clip, tried the brakes enough to realize there was no traction at that speed, so I aimed for the widening space between the two cars, and by the most narrow of margins I slipped right between them !!

I was the most impressive bit of driving that I can even lay claim to, well.... other than almost bouncing a car side ways at 90mph... but that is another story, and one revealing of personal youth and stupidity. LoL


Glad you made it out Ok, and no one got hurt !!!!
Hope you didnt mind my little story there I likes to share sometimes !!
