The Ford had to die, it hit my Subaru!


Recommended Posts

Once upon a time, while in traffic, waiting at a light, I was rear-ended by a Ford 'something' that looked just like those old rally cars over in england, and had in fact been re-imported here to the USA. The guy was very sorry, his car was falling apart, he was taking it to the junk yard.

The junk yard was going to pay him $50 for it. - but he hit my Brat! It was very minor damage, but that was beside the point - the Ford had to die for its transgression! So I made a deal with him that I would settle out of court for his peice of junk ford whatever it was.

He was actually relived, both that there would be no insurance involved, and relived to get rid of this #@%$ Box that had the nerve to impinge upon the rear bumper of my Brat! This portable wastbasket also had no third gear, so the solution came to me!

 

Once matters were settled, I came back later and and got that bumper-bumper crush zone, and drove it off to the mountains to my favorite shooting spot. I had done some checking, and the fine for abandoning a Vehicle was at that time and place $90.00, but I made an arrangement for a towing company to come get whatever was left of it when I and my friends were done with it for only $75.00. Either way, It was not going to make it back home with me, mwa ha ha ha!

Friends met me there, we tied off the steering wheel so it would drive in a circle with nobody behind the wheel, made rules to save the glass and tires, engine, etc for last, turned the idle way up,  started it up, and let it drive in circles while we shot the living crap out of it as it did.

I really wanted to also set it on fire, just for the fun of seeing it going around in flames, but obviously could and would not go quite that far.

 

After a couple minutes of a few hundred rounds giving it imploding freckles, it started sputtering and slowly dying, which was quite fun, and a couple of us were laughing so hard we could not even shoot anymore. When it finally sputtered to a stop, I took my 12 guage with Rottweil solid lead 2 oz slugs, walked up to it still sputtering, trying to move but unable anymore, said "Now That'l learn ya!" and put a couple slugs into the engine block. It was dead. Very dead.

The two truck driver arrived, laughed a little himeslf, and drug its carcass, flat tires and all up onto the flatbed, and off it went to scrap land.

 

It shouldn't oughta have hit my Subaru.... lol.
