| R.P. McMurphy User ID: 17078589 United States03/21/2014 04:49 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Got my first two tickets the first month I owned that car. Exhibition acceleration & Excessive speed. I then had a '67 Karmann Ghia that I had 7 people in one night coming back from a Doobie Brothers concert in New Haven. Exhibition acceleration? I managed to talk my way out of light up my tires and throwing rocks from the road all over a cop car...it was dark and he was riding my ass but I couldn't see it was a cop, so at a light I put it to the floor and smoke poured from the burning tires. Then I saw the lights and had to think quick...I apologized and told him we had just rebuilt the carb and the linkage was hanging...he asked if I could get it back home safely and I said yeah I'll be real careful and get it fixed tomorrow :) LOL! Nice.... There was no talking my way out of it. Had a car lload of friends and wanted to show off my new ride. I was sitting at a stop sign and decided to light 'em up right as the cop rolled up behind me... I'm looking in the rear view mirror and all I could see was white smoke until his flashing lights come out of the fog... I remember I could feel the color drain out of my face. Cost me almost $300 which was a ton of money back at the time. "Moral of the story is I chose a half measure when I should have gone all the way. I'll never make that mistake again. ==== ESTJ-a (Executive) 93% Extroverted, 82% Observant, 83% Thinking, 82% Judging,72% Assertive ==== |

Wish I still had it but a tornado destroyed it years ago :( Bet the tornado took a shit and got weak trying to lift and destroy that American metal. You could build 20 jap cars with the amount of steel they used on that car. |

Cool thread, OP... 5*s and green thumbs... Except I already gave you green thumbs this week so please accept these two clapping jacks as a token of my esteem. Oh I know about that body-rot. I spent a few years in New England. The salt eats 'em alive! Now I live in the desert... and I drive a 1977 Ford F-250 without a spec of rust on it. Must be nice. Ford had a problem with primer a few years back and now my 04 Explorer has a rusted quarter panel. I'm so pissed.
