Default Vandals!

I just found my 78 vette back glass smashed last night. :cry I can't believe someone would come onto my property and do something that mean. I sent out flyers with a $500.00 reword in my area for the arrest of the vandal. Anyone know where I can get a new back glass with defrost? I checked with my local Auto Glass shops and their suppliers don’t have them anymore. Sure like to get a new one with some tint made into it.

Aw, man, the dirty, dirty bastards. That's the reason most classic car insurers won't let you let your car out of your sight when you park it--they're just too tempting for the peckerheads who get their jollies out screwing up things that mean something to someone else. I hope someone here can turn you on to some new glass!

You may want to try some of the Corvette Recycling yards. If you have access to Cars and Parts Corvette they usually have an article with some yard in every issue.

Sorry to hear about that. I have always thought about that. It just irks me. I don`t know what I would do if I caught someone in the process. :boxing

Worthless punks. Nothing but social parasites. I hope you can find a window and get it fixed back up again. Of course, look at the bright side, if you had walked outside and caught them in the act you would be in the crowbar hotel right now, so I guess it's good you weren't there. :chevy I know I would be held on bail if I caught someone doing that. :D

Do you think you were individually targeted? SOunds like it was not in plain view and a random act.

My car got spit on by a tobacco chewing red-neck while it was parked at work a few weeks ago. I decided that it was time to park it in the garage for some engine work rather than contuining to provide a target. I spent the next two days watching all of the tobacco chewers at work for signs that might give me an excuse to vent my frustrations. :boxing

It never ceases to amaze me the envy of some people. Same people who think a cartoon character pissing on a number is funny.

That sounds like someone is out to get you rather than random Vandalism.....Consider getting a pit bull or a rotweiler

Sorry about your loss. Hope those people get to eat green baloney sandwichs and wear pink underware in your famous tent jail. Jim
