Well, that does it... As soon as I finish the paint job I have been working on for several years I am never going to drive it because I am too scared someone will mess it up.

I imagine it would feel like prom night for a guy with a teenage daughter everytime I open the garage door.

you just want her to make it back home in the same condition she left in...

I hope everything cleans up okay.

Some people really suck !

But you should feel lucky that they didn't scratch your paint with a key

Jealousy and stupidness are unlimited...

Welcome to the club, in 50 years of driving, the very LONGEST any car has lasted without something more than parking lot dings.....is 6 months.....shortest is 30 days......

I have had cars egged, cigarettes into the paint, people swerve into the side of me, rear ended, truck backing into me.....

and I"m into sanding the car now, thing is, the cops take a dim view of a 357 in self defense of the car.....

Green eyed monster gets to the best of us sometimes. That would really pizz me off. I understand where you are coming from. Hopefully you know everyone there and have an idea of who it may have been.

Do you guys honestly think adults are doing this kind of mischief? It's your neighbor's kids. It's your own kids. Boys. It's cool to be a punk nowdays. Wake up.

I wouldn't let that egg sit because it can really damage your paint. Hope everything turns out fine

Egg has a lot of acid in it...it will damage the paint very quickly. Get it cleaned up [if it's not already].

Come on over to my house in that Vette. That would never happen in my neighborhood.

Everybody has 1 neighbor that you just don't know about? I think I'm that neighbor, good or bad, I think I'm it.

Eastside, Houghton and Golf Links. As a matter of fact, we're putting on a little gathering for the NHRA racing tommorrow (Sun.) about 3 PM. Good food, some adult beverages, stop by if ya feel like it. PM me for #'s and directions

I know how you feel.
I had the tops off of my 75, and went into a store. When I came back to the car there was a McDonalds bag full of trash, cups, napkins etc. on my seat. Why would someone intentionally throw a bag of trash into someones car? For the same reason that they intentionally throw eggs at your vette. And what that reason is I really dont know.

Hope your vette survives the egging.

I think the perpetraitors should be hung by their toenails and you should get the opportunity to throw eggs at them! I parked my then new 2003 silverado (14 inch lift and 40 inch tires) in a public lot for an hous or so and some jerk pounded the side and put 4 huge dents in it. On a side note, to try and avoid such a situation at my house on superbowl sunday, I let my good friend park his 440 'cuda in my driveway, completely blocked in by my truck so nothing would happen to it. What happened to you just sucks.
