Saw this RRC on "Destroyed in Seconds" the other night....found somebody had already posted on youtube.

The video quality in the link isn't great and not my choice of music.

On the show they noted that the truck drove off under its own power! :applause:

Seeing stuff like that is why I am going to put a roll bar in my classic. I have not seen one roll over where the roof did not cave in. I am not worried about the truck, I am worried about my neck.

On the plus side, the upper tailgate was still in one piece - wonder if he will part it out :rofl:

Along with ed, I do often worry about rolling over in the DII, as my head is 2" from the roof.

Ahhh the joys of being 5' tall. Even my Scion feels like a mansion when you're as short as I am. :cool:

I don't even want to see how my soft top Series would handle a roll! Roll bar is next on my list of "must do's", just trying to find a shop willing to do it.

hurry! lets get it winched over on all four wheels and loaded before the cops show up!!!

Yeah! Actually they were already there. They said it was the fastest recovery they ever saw. They asked for the two guys phone numbers that helped get it back on all fours. They said the tow truck drivers they're used to watching would have taken no less than an hour and more than likely two in order to get it upright and onto a truck.
