Shotgun blast into side of pickup truck

[Rusty Heap]

it always amazes me what may pull up along side you at a stop light.


He was a good ol' country boy with a ZZ Top Beard.

Tons of misc crap on dash - check.
Mismatched Fender/Paint colors - check.
Different size Bias Ply front/rear tires - Check.
Shot gun blast into pickup truck bed - check.

PVC pipe shifter knob and arm. - check.

the clincher though..............I like just below right of the shotgun blast, there is a .40 - .45 caliber slug coming out 1/2 way, from the inside..........



wow. Stories to tell around a campfire

[herr_oberst]

I'm gonna go out on a limb here and speculate that alcohol was involved....

[porsche4life]

I'm gunna speculate that it was alcohol on several different occasions...

[wildthing]

Reminds me of an old Sledge Hammer episode... he gets a new car, says it doesn't look right and proceeds to pepper one side with bullets.

A fair percentage of my customers drive similar vehicles.

Not surprising Jim...


I was always amazed when we worked on highway signs at how many of them would get shot at. I'm not talking about small highways either, I mean major interstates like I40. The most shocking ones were the signs along Ft Sill in Lawton. One of them had some holes that came from on base not the highway, and they looked to be at least .50 cal!

Probably had a snake crawling on it.

[JavaBrewer]

Gotta party with that guy some day.

[Heel n Toe]

Insured? Uninsured? Could go either way.

I would bet there are quite a few interesting things in the bed.

I'm not getting the PCV shift arm, though... wouldn't that get pretty brittle after ashile? Is it just slipped over the existing shifter, or is it *the* shifter?

Are you sure it's not a homemade peace pipe?

"Hold my beer and watch this........." LOL

If he fired back with the .45, then he was definitely drunk. I would have thought a .45 wouldn't get stopped by that sheet metal.

You'd think .50 would blow a watermelon sized hole in a street sign.
