In some states, the property may be communal and each person may have such rights as to dispose of the property. It is a different issue than a "live in". (not that I agree with that) One should not do such a thing to another. But, bottom line, if your "other" is such that they would do such a thing, they need to be drop kicked, post haste. No one should suffer an evil person. Her duty and responsibility were to pack-her-****-and-go if she did not like the scene.
with a 502 big block chebby and its a hardtop sedan with 12,000 original miles when they bought it for the series: It’s 18 feet of badass – a 1967 Chevy Impala hardtop powered by a 502-cubic-inch big-block, slammed down on a built Hotchkiss performance suspension. The V8 rumbles like a bowling ball stuck in an industrial dryer and there’s a guy at the wheel with a grin so big the top of his head might come off. He stomps the throttle, the big-block howls and the Impala lunges forward.
IMO, it doesn't matter what kind of car it is, it's his car and it's his money. Maybe he has some sentimental attachment to it. Obviously, legally she had no right to do that and morally I don't believe anyone has any right to look down on the man just because that particular car wouldn't be our first choice. We go a cruise nights and car shows. Do we like every car there? Have you found yourself wondering why anyone would spend that much time and money on this car or that car? Ever think that just maybe there are people saying the same thing about your car? Now lets be honest, how many of us have more money in our cars than they'll ever be worth? And do you care? Lets see a show of hands boys and girls. My hand is up.
Big drive around town cruise night last night. "Maybe" 1500 participants. Lotsa really nice stuff, then the knuckleheads rolling coal. and even a bunch of rice grinder cars blasting through town WOT with a turbo and the wasta gates open blappin' down the street. The stuff used to irk me, but now with all the weird lockdown stuff and people finally coming outa their bubbles, I attributed it to "The love of the sport". Not my cup of coffee, but at least THEY were enthused. Had a coffee can muffler job annoying me last night for a whole block right next to me. We made a turn and I THRASHED the BADLASS for 1/2 a block with a rolling WOT hole shot right next to him and the corner he turned off in shame. I impressed myself and Pat, but at the same time felt sorry for the kid. Shamed him outa the circuit.... ws BTW, that one crunched up '67 is a 396 Caprice. Wouldnt never own another one, but its still a novelty...
I think that the scrapyard is in hot water too; I forgot what state this happened in, but the yard should require proof of ownership. Technically the girl is a car thief and the scrap yard is guilty of receiving stolen goods.
Exactly what I am thinking. Hell someone from the junkyard came over and helped grab everything they could. It's not like they rolled up with a tow vehicle and just pulled it up on the truck. PS: I did notice the beat up 67 was a big block Caprice. Just wanted a picture of a beat up 67.
I don't think those cars look bad in a 4 door. Actually any fullsize looks decent in 4 doors to me. From the single picture the car looks to be in decent shape and relatively solid. The guy obviously had a passion for this car. The girlfriend should have respected that. Her scrapping it speaks volumes about her character. She ain't wife material!
autoblog.com is not taking this whole internet hype (hoax?) for granted: its the last sentence in this article about the impala and the girlfriend: https://www.autoblog.com/2020/05/29/girlfriend-has-boyfriends-car-towed
I guess I kind of assumed it was a Caprice because of the big block. You can tell A big block by the size of the cross flags on the fender. Small blocks have smaller cross flags. Here is the larger like on that 67 If it were a 427 it would have red paint instead of black. Here is the small block emblem type.
And there is absence of any emblems on the car that’s on the uhaul trailer which would indicate an inline 6. But it seems unclear if that is the actual car in question.
