jeeez....

Some of those pics don't seem to match up.

That is kinda spooky... :eek:

I guess there's a buyer out there for just about anything. On second thought, he's listed it 3 times!
I like the "signed paper guarantee" that comes with the broken glass. It reminds me of that awesome line in the movie "Tommy Boy" where Dan Aykroyd says, "I could take a dump in a box and mark it guaranteed...I've got the spare time. But all you've got is a guaranteed piece of $hit!"

Gruesome! http://www.chevelles.com/forums/images/smilies/frown.gif

Hard to believe any one would want that car.:sad:

Creepy, morbid, and um ... creepy. :sad:
Yeah, I'm gonna park that in my garage and look at it? Three people died in that thing! Crush it and melt it down, or better yet, bury it. Yeesh - some people will try to make a buck off of anything. :noway:

..that car should have went to the boneyard many years ago...

Sickening. Some of these ghouls will do anything for a buck.

That pics of the hood dont seemed to match up... On another note, this car should be destroyed or put in a mueseum

Jane is buried in my home town ! You can't believe the fan club she still has. I'm surprised they haven't jumped on that yet.


Sam

There were 3adults Jane, attorney Sam Brody, and the car driven by Ronnie Harrison and 3 children and supposedly there were four Chihuahuas in the car with them when they crashed. The 3 adults died and supposedly one of the Chihuahuas died also.
So 3 children and 3 dogs survived most likely because they were in the back seat sleeping at the time of the crash.

One of the kids is that chick on Law and Order SVU

That is correct Andrew:D

I never knew that.

I never knew Jayne Mansfield died in a car wreck either :)

Quite a few details about her death here: http://www.findadeath.com/

Just look in the directory for her name.

I thought the car was in A roadside museum in Florida...

Interesting. I was reading about Vic Morrow. They know he had dandruff because they found his head and shoulders in the bushes :D

Why are all of the ebay pictures black & white? They all look old or something.

Because they are from 1967 I assume.

So are there any pictures of the car in it's present condition? I looked at it again & it looks like there are a couple of very bad pictures of the car with a tarp on it.

The only ones that I know of is the ebay auction HERE (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Cars-Trucks___1966-BUICK-ELECTRA-225-JAYNE-MANSFIELD-LAST-RIDE_W0QQitemZ270264362004QQddnZCarsQ20Q26Q20Truck sQQddiZ2282QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item270264362004&_trkparms=39%3A1%7C65%3A-1%7C240%3A1318&_trksid=p4506.c0.m245#ebayphotohosting)

Very intresting site for sure. I didnt know whom Vic Morrow was so I checked out his name. Thats crazy, the youtube video even shows the crash. Scary that he even said he had a premonition of dying in a helicopter crash.

Sickos trying to make a dime !:yes:

Just for the record, I love black humor, and I did find that amusing; but it's in extremely poor taste.

I think those came out of a book called "Tasteless Jokes" :D

here it is:

I don't know about you guys, but I see something fishy about the photos. The old B/W photos don't have the same dents as the newer photos. I think this guy is just trying sell the car as Jane's last ride to make a buck off his scrap heap.

What a Dirtbag...

aren't those new ones in the auction?

They all look like they were copied from the www to me.
Most all the stuff I read had the same pictures.

The ones of the car under the tarp look newer to me. I compared them side by side and the tarp car is the same one as in the B&W accident photos. Whether or not the tarp photos are recent I can;t say, but what reason is there to think they aren't?

..................... but what reason is there to think they aren't?

Only because they looked like the same old picures that are on the net and they are in B&W except for the ones that were originally B&W and have since been colored I guess.

BUT, I never compared them side by side and I can't remember anything for five minutes. :o

My sides are still aching over over Uncle Milty's

you guys seriously need to find jobs to fill up your spare time. mansfield did die in a car wreck, true, but i would bet my life the car has long been disposed of. why would a junk car sit around for the last 40+ years in this condition???? and only B/W photos of the car? nothing odd about that.

for those of you who think this is legit beware of the "i need to get 20million dollars out of nigeria and all i need is your bank account number...". email:)

I've never heard of her(until I read the ebay ad), and I may be way off here, but I have heard of the low riding bar on semi trailers be referred to as a Mansfield Bar. Is this a coincidence or did it get that nickname because of her death:confused:

I've owned tractor trailers for 35 years and been around'em my whole life,thats the first time I've ever heard it called that.It used to be called the I.C.C. bar as it was originally mandated by the now defunct Interstate Commerce Commission.Now it's just called the D.O.T. bumper.

It was mandated after her accident

It was mandated after her accident

First required in 53,well before her accident.

http://www.autosafetyexpert.com/defect_truckunderride.php

hmmm? :confused:


The underride guard is also known as a DOT bumper, or a Mansfield bar. The Mansfield bar name comes from a highly publicized accident involving none other than 50's icon Jayne Mansfield, in which her small car rear-ended a large truck, killing three of the six passengers including Jayne Mansfield. This took place on June 29th, 1967 – before The National Highway Transportation Safety Administration required underride guards on semi-trailers – and the car passed under the truck just high enough that Jayne Mansfield's head impacted the rear of the trailer. Popular rumor for quite some time was that she was decapitated, but in reality only a portion of her skull was severed.

hmmm? :confused:

that quote also said something about her "small" Buick Electra

[QUOTE=Dean;1956466]hmmm? :confused:[/QUOTE

More misinformation on the net,the NHTSA wasn't even formed till 70,they now have stricter requirements about height and strength but the ICC bumper has been around for a long time.Way before 1970 or 67.Cars have been crashing into the back of semis forever.Do you really think it took untill 1970 before these were required?We've had semis on our farm since 1960 and they were on our trailers then,partially because it's one of the few ways to climb up in a trailer.


http://www.autosafetyexpert.com/defe...kunderride.php

Truck underride is when a passenger vehicle crashes into and penetrates beneath, or "underrides", the taller rear or side of a large truck or trailer. The top of the car is crushed or ripped off, and the occupants suffer severe head trauma or may be decapitated. Rear guards on trucks and trailers were initially required in 1953, and are known as ICC bumpers (Interstate Commerce Commission), but such rear bumper devices are typically defective.... too high above the road, too narrow across the truck's rear, and too weak to prevent the underride hazard

I never knew a lot about Jayne Mansfield, so this thread sparked my interest and after some research into her life and tragic death..... I find out she's buried just a few miles from my house in Pen Argyl, PA!

Here's an article about Jayne's accident by a New Orleans disc jockey that seems pretty credible. I've been to this spot and it's spooky. :eek:

If I recall the top of her skull was smashed away at the top of her forehead. I couldn't imagine being there and seeing that.

"Scalped" is what a couple of the articles said.

I think I believe that one (maybe)
:confused:

Hi- Saw this thread and I guess wanted to get other opinions. Alot of people think the car should be destroyed and its disgusting. 1) Should the rocking chair that Pres. Lincoln was shot in that is now on display be destroyed? 2) Should the X100 limo that President Kennedy was shot in and later revamped (new seat of course) and we put Pres. Johnson right back in that same car a few months later in the same seat that Kennedy was shot in (now thats a little much in my opinion but to each their own)---should we destroy that limo that is now on display in the Henry Ford Museum? 3) The Bonnie and Clyde death car that is now on display in the lobby entry way of a casino in Nevada----should that car be destroyed? I guess what I am trying to figure out is what is the difference in these scenarios versus the Jane Mansfield car? Maybe there is something I am not getting? Let me know. Thanks
