It's been a while since I last took my Mercury out, and decided I would go out for an all highway drive this evening. I don't drive this car often as it's my project car, and when I do, I take it out at times when I know there will be no traffic.

Checked all the fluids, etc. and went out for a drive. Decided to stop by Texas Roadhouse for a bite to eat and when I was done, I noticed something didn't look right about the passenger side of my front bumper. Turns out it's a hit and run.

Long story short, previous owner was a cheapskate and had the bumper cover painted at some cheap shop who used bondo on it. I had the bumper cover painted to cover stone chips and the shop I used didn't prep the bumper cover properly, so the paint was peeling off like an eggshell. I wasn't exactly sure whether I was mad at the shop considering I paid well over market value for quality work, or at the bozo who bashed into my car and drove off.

When I came home, I noticed bits of paint chips on the ground where the front bumper would cover. Turns out someone hit my car right in front of my house.

Going to put the cover on it for now, and get a new bumper cover with no bondo on it and look for a professional shop to paint it. Maybe I'll get the dealer to do it since they did a fantastic job on my Explorer.

I definately double-took as well.

Actually I wish there was... I love Middle-eastern food.

Instead of peanuts all over the place there would be pistachios! or something.
 
Had a 1973 LTD my pals called it the Hawaii 50 mobile. Anywho was parked in front of my aunties house for about 1/2 hour only to come out and find my left fender caved in as some [censored] backed into it and took off. People are such loser that do this type of [censored]..

I agree with that..Hit and run's happen down here in Miami-Fort Lauderdale every day..For the most part the hit and run driver is nowhere to be found.

It's funny when it happens at work outside the parts dept. We have a camera on our parking spots with a computer in another room. When people deny backing into the row of new Super Duty's we bring up the tape for the police.

Someone did a hit-and-run to one of the guys I work with...sideswiped his (parked) A6. They caught the driver...she is an illegal alien with no licence, insurance, or money. Heck, they aren't even sure of her real name!

I'm surprised they didn't just send her on her way in the car she was driving with NO penality.

It seems to me that these alien invaders get better treatment than our own citizens.

We have GOT to start deporting ALL illegal aliens out of our country NOW!
 
To heck with that.
What should be done, and this should apply to anyone who drives without a license, or insurance, if the non-covered person is at fault, their vehicles (all of them) should be turned over to the damaged party, so that they can recoup their losses.

And it doubles by getting one less vehicle out of the bad guy's hands.

You do know that American Indians migrated to North America fairly recently when you study it.

Actually indo European caucasians beat them by around 4000 years. They are called
Kennewick Man.
