Three observations:
- Nicely centerpunched.
- No skid marks.
- A Google search yielded more than eight pages of websites (I stopped looking after eight) that are using this image as click bait. Apparently this either happened quite a while back, or it has gone viral in the click bait industry.

If I had, the owner would have killed me. It was my neighbors car. He got a DUI and lost his license but figured since I had a learners permit, it was okay for me to drive him to the cocktail lounge. I sat in the parking lot listening to the radio while he got loaded.

I left a 85 Corvette I had, years ago, in the driveway out of gear, it rolled backwards across the street and hit a tree. It damn near totaled it out.

The older gentleman who mentored me Corvettes/paintwork/life had a 69 convertible and his wife let it roll downhill and into a living room of the next house. I was too young to know if he swapped frames - but he sectioned the body at the door sills and used a donor car for the rear half. The car looked flawless
