Default Totaled es250 pics

So here is the story of my crashed es250 someone here asked me to put it up with some current pics after I put up the ones from when I drove her. So this was about july 2003. I was driving down a back country road with my cruise on at about 65 (stupid). At that point I hadn't been driving very long and i thought my car could basicly do anything. So I had no idea how much i had to slow down when i saw the sign for a 25 mph curve (now i know that it's at least 50). So i went around a turn and was like oh thats not so bad.Then i saw a 30 foot rock wall that the road went immediately turned left into a s curve. So when i entered the turn my rear end broke out and me being a moron hit the brake instead of turning the wheel to the left. None the less i started spinning went into the ditch slid on the side of the car for about ten feet when the ditch ended popped me up in the air a luckly right side up in someones lawn. So now or shall I say back then it was going to cost 5k to untwist and bend the frame plus all my body and a few motor parts.
