Sorry to hear that dude. I will never forget the day when some scum placed a lit cigarette on my 1970 340 Six/Pak's fender on the drivers side so I could always see the burnt fender. One thing we can count on is that these world will never run out of scum. Fix it and enjoy your car

When I worked at a body shop we fixed a brand new Mercedes SL500 Roadster that came in. Engraved in the decklid were the words "Fire This" Seems pretty dumb to do something like that, it's pretty easy to find out who you fired on that day. I don't think that it was that big of a deal for the car owner, his car was insured and it was out for about 3 days and came back to him all detailed and polished.

On the flip side I've seen people slam their doors so hard on a car parked next to them and not even look to see if they did anything to it.
I was actually sitting in my work truck in a parking lot where I had stopped to use the phone. Lady pulls up next to me and when she gets out, she slams the door into the truck. So I watch to see what she does. Nada. She just starts to walk toward the store. I guess she didn't see me. So I get out of the truck and confront her, but she has the nerve to deny it completely. NEVER admitted to it. I was sitting in the truck when it happened, even told her that, and she STILL denied it. I couldn't believe it. Unfortunately there wasn't any paint transfer so I couldn't prove anything. :mad

I used to hang out with a dancer (stripper).. About half the time I spent the night I'd have nails in my tires the next day, usually the drivers side rear (hardest to see from inside the house). :mad Don't know if it was the Corvette, a jealous stalker, or something in between.

OK< at a car show, sitting behind the car, drinking beers with another show pal. All of the sudden, some lady screams "oh no, there is a child scratching a car"!! Immediately, I jump up to looksie..... and there is my 3 year old little princess, running the underside of a beer bottle cap across the top of my '68 fender.......

Of course it was my bottle cap.

I dont drink anymore at car shows.

Well, sometimes.

OK, everytime, but I drink out of cans now.

it would be almost worth them doing something like slashing your tires if you caught them in the act...just so you can teach someone like that a lesson :reddevil
