Default Well.......crap......

....I was having a great day yesterday, my son & I got his lift (yes, Harden Motorsports will soon have a lift!!) stood up and ready for electrical hookup.......took the family out to Kabuto's for my wife's birthday dinner and when we got back out to the car.....THIS is what I find....



Some jack@$$ decides to back damned near over the front of my Corvette...GOD I hate people!!!!

There was a small scuff just above the license plate cover that I think will buff out, but the cover is toast.

I can't even imagine what could have hit my car so damned low?!? ???

I was parked away from other cars with the nose facing the aisle of the parking lot area....WTF!!!?!?!

There goes another $100.00 down the toilet due to someone else's carelessness or meanness...

And to top it off, I caught a damned cold today..........1st time I've been sick in a loooong while.

I have an old Mag Red cover that looks just like that. Fortunately for me that was the only damage.
