I wonder if that was based upon a REAL event for somebody.

Makes me wonder if Corvette hood would bend like that or split/crack. Just in case that happend to me.

i was going to comment on that but you beat me to it lol i bet thats the only C4 in history that has a hood made out of pot metal

If this was based on an actual event, I find it hard to believe that the damage looks far worse to the C4 than the C1. I am basing this off of nothing, just an observation.

I'd like to have a 1/18 c4 vert in bright red - like mine. Also a c2 vert in blue, and a c3 vert in grey. Like others I've owned.
I already have a 56 Bird in Black, a 67 Stang in green, a Wrangler min red, and a 71 GTO in blue.
I plan to have them all buried with me, icons, just like the Pharoah's did.

How come the air bags didn't deploy on the C4?

The lesson is to buckle-up!
Looks like BOTH drivers were ejected from their cars.

It will do both depending on how, where, and the speed that you hit. No one was hurt in this case, just her pride.

I echo vetteboy86 go to ebay search for:
corvette 1/18
I just bought a C2 Bright blue and C3 silver
I see C4 verts but not in bright red (my current ride)
Plenty of early C4 coupes, though.
