Parked the car at the entrance and and relaxed for a couple of hours. All fine till the time I had to go!!!! went to the car to find out somy big A!! mother F!!!!! had scratched my paint on purpose with a key or wire!!!!

Sorry to hear Happens frequently to nice classic cars...
I assume the mentality is:
" If I can't have a nice car why should he, so I'll key it"
I always keep 1 eye on my classic car when I have it out.
I always describe the feeling as Man Rape ! ...it sucks !
never let the car out of your sight, ..... even at a Car show !
that's 1 reason why people baby sit thier cars at shows.
catch 1 at a Car show, and you will see a real good ***-Kicking !
I saw 1 once, cops had to pull about 20 guys off of him before they killed him !

He scratched 7.5" in the driver side just in front of the handle and about 24" in the rear wheel well of the same side!!!! Other cars parked there were also ruined.... I will put this task of hitting a paint scratcher on my wanna do's list

It's terrible that people cannot show just modicum of respect when it comes to other peoples property.
Hell, I was at a Brewers game parking my Vette when the guy next to me came up and started pushing down on my head light. I had turned them off and they go down kinda one at a time, not too even (which is typical).
The dumb *** thought it was stuck and figured he'd help it. He almost found himself going down.
What compels people to lean on my car, or sit on the fender right in front of me also drives me bonkers. WTF is the matter with people? These are the same *******s who get kicked out of museums for messing with the art. Friggin retards.
ARGH!!!! Sorry this happened to you. Can you tell I feel your pain. The worst are those morons that leave stray carts in the parking lot.

I feel your pain...
you spend good money on your vehicle and some idiot has to cause damage to it.
I refuse to leave my vette...or I leave it home...people I know think I`m a little **** about my mistress...
If I ever caught someone scratching any vehicle, well lets just say they would be wearing their a$$ as a hat...

Love the Vette

Oh man! Sad news indeed. That's why I never leave my cars anywhere that I cannot see them. Or if I am at a cruise and I want to take a walk to look at other cars, I will get someone to babysit my car and I return the favor when they want to ramble around. It's terrible that we need to do this, but there are jealous mean-spirited people out there.

You guys are going to make me paranoid. I've never had any paint damage to either of my vintage cars in parking lots, but I've always suddered at the thought of finding one of them keyed. My adult son gets pi$$ed at me for parking them in a single space in a parking lot, but I think parking them in two spaces will draw the attention and ire of some people. If I EVER saw someone keying a car, I'd take him out. One solid shot to the back or side of the head. See ya!

2 spots, is begging for a keying by the idiots.
2 spaces is only acceptable.. wayyy, wayy out, away from eveyone.
and that can still be a problem. (can't fix Stupid)
find a protected spot or parallel park.
Sorry keying a car isn't Justifiable, in my morals book, anywhere.
If someone did damage to your car parking next to you,
and they are still there, call the cops, let the Idiot pay for the damage.

I remember seeing a family posing there kids on the painted running boards of a 32 ford for a picture at a local car show. The kids are standing there with their grit covered shoes while the moron parents are yelling "smile kids!". The owner came over there and with amazing restraint asked the kids to get off the car and told the parents that was a real dumb decision. They of course were totally offended and acted as if he was the jerk. Losers. Sorry to hear about your car, that sucks.

I know exactly how you feel imagine spending 10 years and 50 thousand restoring a rare antique biplane only to take it to an airshow and have kids climbing all over it and when you calmly tell them not to climb on the airplane their mom says sarcastically " well why did you bring it if you didn`t want them on it" some people are just trash. I hate it for you.

My question is if you, your wife and your kid went driving in your 2 seat Corvette where did your 2 year old kid sit? In NYS children under the age of 8 must sit in the back with a booster seat or car seat other wise we get in big trouble.
