Just had to chase a guy away who without asking was out on our lot opening all of the doors, decklids, and sitting in our customers' 914s! Our dear accountant witnessed the abuse from her office perspective and reported it to us. Pretty bad when someone has no respect for other peoples' property! We deeply respect our customers' cars and take good care of them while they are here for service and restoration, and do not tolerate those who come on the lot and disrespect them. Guy started to say how he owned a 914 years ago etc etc etc, but I did not want to hear it!

Might be that average everyday people just look at vehicles/ special build vehicles as furniture or appliances; just there for the utility use, abuse, throw away and go get another mentality...even if it's not theirs to do so. Respect for another's property and hard work that goes into a project car these days ¿¿ Next time you're at an auto show...watch some of the people clowning around and abusing the cars on display (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)
There is a current TV ad for an Rx "Wegovy" that cracks me up, and hurts to see somebody's '69 blue Plymouth (Satellite or R/Runner) victim of abuse. Two guys working on a hose clamp, when done the older dude just drops his toolbox on top of the right fender (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) No respect for the car, and hopefully the owner that rented it to the producers was reimbursed for damages.
