That will.....not buff right out.

It'll get resurrected as long as the chassis plate isn't too badly crumpled.

Some resto shop just hit the lottery.

Sad!

Well, let's see, we might have a door, a headlight cover, and a number plate. Who can do this job?

Eh, its probably in the realm of what I call "vin number rare" where crash/damage history has no negative effect on value.

GRM can do the restoration

When one of you drags that home, just remember, my shop is only a phone call away.

Bring cash..

more pics... and short news story... in Japanese of course...

On the upside, I'm happy to see someone was out driving and enjoying their awesome car, and not polishing it with diapers in a sterile garage someplace. And happy to hear that they weren't seriously hurt by the tree falling.

Did you want the guys phone number of do you figure the insurance company will find him?

I'm with the serial number restoration.

The irony of mega dollar exotics is that you can not do enough damage to them to exceed the cost of a complete re-build. And since so many of them have already been rebuilt from a grease-spot and a serial number, and been accepted in the market, there is relatively little risk to the insurance company.
