unclehulka, I am sure that your story has brought back a few great car stories and memories. Some that we treasure and some that we don't want to remember.
Years ago, I owned a 1969 Dodge Charger. Yep, I had a Dukes of Hazzard car. This car was a work in progress for over 3 years. About the time that I finally thought it was done, I moved into an apartment. Bottom floor and the car was parked right outside the window. At least for a few weeks it was, til someone stole it. I was devastated.
About 3 days later my sister calls me. She said that she thought that she saw my car sitting in the middle of a field off a main road. So I went to check it out. In hindsight, I probably shouldn't have. Cause I cried when I saw it.
The people that had stolen it took everything that they could have off of the car, and then drove it through a field. I don't think that there was a spot on the car that didn't have a dent ! I think that they thought that they were the Dukes of Hazzard. The insurance company totaled the car, not surprised, and I had to fight with them, to get what I had into the car, back. Ultimately I did. Now I could start looking for what I really wanted, and old Chevy. And that is my, I wanna forget, story.
