Looked for the numbers and couldn't find em. The steering column sitting on the passage was a problem.

On a more serious note, that's not the car Doc shortened his leg in is it?
It looks like similar damage to me.

Kev?

Yes possibly. It was fairly early. I didn't have a close look at the doors on this one, but I think you're right.

The wreck has wind up window doors (easily changed)...if the front valance has no cut-outs then that might point to it being an 850...
