The 1969 Z/28 on the roof Mosteller's Garage in Chattanooga ,Tennessee

I saw this on facebook earlier. Irish

The 1969 Z/28 on the roof Mosteller's Garage in Chattanooga ,Tennessee has been a warning for years to the local teens not to street race.

Sadly, a couple young guys were racing a truck, on July 7th 1978, and contact between them at high speed caused the car to flip up and out, and wrap all the way around a telephone pole, still embedded. The roof touches the floor, the hood and trunk lid touch each other.

the story on the 69 Z28

Rivals at Central High went to go race a 1956 Chevy truck that hadn't been beat and the other was this 69 Z/28 , with two boys 16 and 15 years old, the driver lived in Hixson and the passenger lived near the lake off Kings Point Rd

They started at Germantown headed East on South Terrace.

They were followed by a guy in a Road Runner, his story:

As we topped the hill, I backed out of it because of the traffic light ahead. The Camaro was slightly ahead and hit his brakes just as the truck was changing lanes. (the road is said to have a bump in it) The truck clipped the bumper of the Z-28 and it simply went into the air sideways. I estimate they were going around 90-95 mph because I was still doing 80 and slowing down.

The car slid on it's passenger side right into the pole instantly knocking out the power in the area. The sound was like a sonic boom. The truck slid just off the road onto the sidewalk.

The driver was hanging half out of the car and the passenger was bunched up in the floor, they were both removed and taken to East Ridge Hospital. Other than being bloody, they were intact and really did not look that bad.

The headlights were still on and the radio was playing and that made it kind of spooky.

The fire department pried open the trunk and tore into the back seat to see if anyone was in the back seat in spite of us telling them nobody else was in the car. The wrecker tried several times to pull the car off the pole with no luck.

They cut the pole top and bottom.

The driver of the truck was brought up on charges of vehicular homicide. ( Both kids had died instantly)
