I experienced that crunchy sound, sadly in my case it was bodywork. When i was young and really silly.
I was on the top level of a mutli storey car park in winter icy weather and decided that it would be a good idea to attempt trying to j turn down the ramp but lined it up a bit wrong and met some armco!
I apologise to myself for my younger stupidity, and for the terrible editing of the wheels. I was trying to jog someones memory of the car a while ago and as it had those distinctive wheels on i thought it would help. I have lost the original picture with out the MSpaintwork.
Hell i loved that car. It looked so much better when it was finished about a year later but a hard disk failure lost all my pictures
