yup, no one got hurt, but my experience with a shop screwup torqueing lug nuts was proudly driving my '57 two door hardtop belair away from the shop with its brand new paint, new wheels and tires when it went limp on the right rear at about 45mph. the tire went up into the wheel well, brake drum came off and backing plate bottom wore a flat spot as it made impressive sparks I'm sure. lucky the damage to the fender and inner fender was minor...but it was a brand new paint job. Expensive lesson for that shop foreman as they lost time and money on this one with another paint job as well as my dampened exitement! (putting it mildly) only a few miles away from the shop so the couldn't have no more than finger tightened.
