Back in the day when my dad was in high school he had a friend who's father worked for Ford. Well they had found out that his dad had keys to a 68 Shelby GT350 and it was sitting in the back of a parking lot somewhere in Dearborn Mi. Well his friend stole the keys one night, they used wire cutters and had cut out a hole large enough to push the car through then they took it out for a joy ride all night put it back, and then his friend returned the keys...

me and a couple of my buddies took a caddy el doraldo from the dealership for a joy right at like 2 in the morning. blew the rear passenger tire doing donuts and had to replace it with the spare, then we had it back at the dealership by like 5 am.


this was like 10 years ago. dumbasses at the dealership shouldnt leave the keys in the cars overnight.


age 15 got caught taking my dads '66 mustang out for a joyride, well, didnt quite make it. our driveway at the time was about 100 yds long and as soon as i was pulling out onto the street i see my parents car. im like oh shit! turns out they forgot something and i ended up having to go with them. this happened a few times. but theirs many times they, still to this day, dont know about. i used to take that thing out everytime i was alone at home and go pick up a buddy of mine and we would roll around smokin bowl after bowl after bowl. wasnt the brightest idea, but i thought i was the shit. still do. lol

there was also many times i would wait till everyone was asleep, grab the keys and put that ****er in neutral and push that ****er all they way back down our driveway till i got on the road then fire it up and hope they didnt hear it. i would proceed to pick up said buddy and we would continue our ritual.

yea, now that i look back, ive done alot of stupid shit. but i wouldnt change it for the world! ive had some pretty badass/wild times!
