Title: Sad "urban legend"
Post by: Clayton on July 05, 2007, 07:01:57 PM
Its a story being passed around my girlfriends neighborhood that I just proved entirely wrong

She told me that theres a car in the woods that sombody got shot in and torched. This had my attention, and I asked how long ago was it. She told me that she heard 30-40 years ago it was set.

So... we went to look at it and 1 it didnt look torched, 2 it wasnt 30 years old, and 3 it pissed me off.


Those with weak stomachs dont look any further.


It was an 87-88 v6 thunderbird.

It pissed me off because it wasnt rusty in our normal areas... it was actually solid in the rockers.

So much for urban legend huh?

At least it was only a V6 model...

...and it looks like it's been torched to me. I can pretty much guarantee nobody was shot in it, though - if they had been the police would have taken it.

It was stripped there it looks like... some kids prolly started a fire in it and it does have a couple bullet holes in it. nothin major.. Just a  of a deal that it was a thunderbird.

i was hoping hudson or some deal like that.... but no.

Autocat. Kids and big rocks... and maybe some sledge hammers.

The window tag too? . Then again if I had a car in the woods with the rumor of a shooting I would take the vin number too so it's harder to trace

After re-looking at the pics... are those allumnium heads on a V6? I don't know anything about 2.8's but didn't they have iron heads like the 5.0?

No. 3.8's have aluminum heads, part of the reason why they eat HG's.
