Ford Expedition Accident Crashed into Pole
Kirkland, Illinois



Here are some photos of a Ford Expedition that we hauled in. The driver was a 17-year-old girl. She was traveling west on Baseline road. Baseline road is a road that is very poor in the winter. Just east of Pearl St she lost control of the vehicle. The suv went into the ditch rolled over two times and then struck a pole. The driver was transported to a local hospital for minor injuries.

I still can't believe she had minor injuries after seeing hor the Expy looks.

I could use a new shifter lever. Too soon?

Just cut the roof off put the spare tire on the right rear and drive it home and you have a start of a rock buggy, sound like a plan?
