I side swiped one of those in my 71 RS back in high school... dad was out of town... came home... did the body work... primed & painted it.... thought I was in the clear...
Dad says about a week later... what the hell did you hit in your car? You, didn't clean the paint gun very well... doh.

The craziest experience I had in McD's Drive-Thru was about 20 yrs ago when this chick tried to pass me while I was waiting at the p/u window. . Her Volare' wheel caught the curb...went up a garden rock and like in slow motion slowly rolled over onto it's driver's side! .
I got out of my car, went over and pushed/rocked the Volare' a couple times and it landed back on it's wheels...she just looked up at me crying all over her Corinthian Leather interior and drove away w/ dented driver's side panels and smashed mirror! .

Nice. I used to wark at a NAPA auto parts in Hawaii. I used to get tipped all the time helping tourists in their rental cars with that trick!
