Has anyone had some freaking odd experiences while working on their car?


I've had MANY, but I think this takes the cake:

LOL Mooneggs, as OldMan as my witness, tis not a photoshop.

He was smoking a cigarette staring closely at my engine bay at that moment.

Local news: Georgia man dies in car fire... almost.

Strangest i've done was launch 2 gallons of water out of the front bank plug holes. The water shot out in a solid stream and went i would say at least 30-40 ft in the air. This was after hurricane ivan hit and the engine sucked up water

Wow, hard to beat a projectile!

For me, the strangest thing that went wrong would be:

driving over a speed bump in a parkinglot.. I heard a clunk and my steering wheel went loose. I limped her home (only one block) Popped my hood and saw that my front drivers side strut pulled down through the nut and upper strut mount. The nut was sitting upside down in the strut mount. Needless to say, I'm now rolling on tokico HP's and Eibachs.

-Note-
Do not buy dropzone coilovers. Struts blow and then you have no one to blame but your own cheap a$$.

It was not just coincedence on having his camera there. He went and got it, just had to have a picture of it.

The arm that you can barely see through the windshield belongs to the idiot who was sitting in the car cranking it for him, so that he could get the picture!

Yeah, I was the idiot!! I must be getting senile in my old age!
