Pelican working on wrong end of 911?

When you perform a search a picture of the pelican working on a 911 appears. Shouldn't he work on the other end of the car?

It appears that he was installing new brake pressure switches in the master cylinder....but got his beak stuck in the smugglers box instead.

That is where he keeps all the spare parts required as well as the fluids for replenishing after a run. What is missing is the cookie tin under the rear so as not to discolor driveways.

He's putting up a smoke-screen for his smuggler box-porn raid.

He's trying to replace the driver's side hood strut (the broom stick is the dead give away). If it was the passengers side, he'd be in and out in 10 minutes.

That the best explanation yet, except maybe the "smuggler box-porn raid".

It is soft porn and she is trying to look alluring...just subliminal advertising...reaching out to the freaks who cut up pristine vintage cars to build boy racers,,,to satisfy their sadistic tendencies.

The stickers they send with their parts orders have the bird working on the correct end. You guys DO order on occasion, yes?
