It's an A, 30 or 31. Hard to picture how that happened.

Actually, it's pretty easy to figure out what happened. It was in neutral or they had their foot on the clutch , and it rolled backwards. Oooops!! I can't throw stones or even smile, because I was late for my high school graduation party when the same thing happened to me. Only it was the front frame of a 66 Chevelle standard stuck on a retaining wall. Took 4 guys to lift up and a Jeep to pull it.

How did it end up front down if it rolled backwards?
