Does anyone here own or know the owner of the Lime green 73/74 914 that is always parked on San Mateo Dr by Hilltop Market? I always see it parked out there, but over this holiday weekend someone hit the drivers rear quarter panel and the rear wheel is sticking out about 45 degrees. What a shame! It looked like a clean original car. I will have to shoot a pic of it to show everyone why you should not park your vintage car on the street. Every time I dare to take my car to SF I sweat bullets that something bad will happen because it has happened before.

Damn shame.

I ventured out today for a drive in my teener but I needed to stop by the bank so I parked my 914 WAAAAY out in a lot with no one around so I could run into (aka hike to) the bank. I waited in line at the bank for ever to make my deposit all the while worrying about leaving my 914 alone. I get back to discover an RV towing a RAV 4 trying to park across the back row of parking spots where I am parked (how thoughtful). I run to the car just in time to jump up and down in the guys line of sight seconds before his RAV 4 would have taken out the 914.

Whew. Man, it's bad enough I don't drive her enough but when I do get her out I just got to remember never to leave her again... too many idiots out there.

Let me guess, let me guess!!! They were from Oregon, right? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) You're just lucky you weren't driving and trying to merge with them in traffic because it's an Oregon rule that merging can only be done if your speed is [Posted Speed] - 90% <_<
