  2. In and effort to reduce the spam on the site, several years ago I had went to a program where I manually approve each and every new registration. This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

    I removed Petunia's back seat today in preparation for replacing the window felts. Look what I found! :gt: No wonder why she was kinda smelly.

    Looks bigger than a mouse.

    Gives new meaning to: "It smells like something crawled up there and died."

    I think it was a big rat. I guess I'm glad it wasn't still alive. :::::shudder:::::

    I agree. I think we have a new addition to a museum. It's amazing what gets stuck in places. I saw this one picture with a fish stuck in a toilet bowl.

    It definately isn't an opossum, I've had a live one drop on my foot after lifting an old tire in the shed. They are much bigger. I think it's either a big rat or a squirrel. Egad, now I am going to have nightmares remembering the possum incident. :shock: :(

    Reminds me of the "discovery " the guys who put up soffit and gutters on my house made.

    When my grandson (who was about 2 1/2 then) went out to see the skeletal remains, he said: OOOuuu, dinosaur!!!:laugh: :laugh:

    Dat's niiiiiice!

    Now wasn't it nice of that varmint to haul it's dying carcass into your car to croak!:laugh: :laugh:

    Course not having personally ever driven with you maybe it had a little varmint heart attack during one of your more lead footed moments:laugh:

    I'd prefer the latter story so you can tell your buddies "Neither man nor beast can survive a full throttle run in the GS":Brow: :Brow:

    My favorite experience was at a local junk yard where I opened the trunk on a 63 Skylark and this darn raccoon started jumping around.

    I freaked back through the air about 4 feet finally descending low enough to catch my heel on a transmission housing sunk about 2ft into dry red clay.

    Believe me it didn't "get any prettier" from there:laugh: I ended up getting up and personal with several cars and stickers which I finally came to rest in:Dou:

    My 5 year old was just standing there over me saying "What's a matter daddy?":rolleyes:

    I expect about anything now but I have to admit that is a pretty good critter find you made there.Maybe you could make one of those skull shifter knobs or mount him onto a little wooden plaque and adhere it to the dash:laugh: :laugh:
