    On my way home from my daughter's piano recitals this afternoon, I spied this car on the side of the road. It appeared broke down and no sign of the driver anywhere. It was 5 miles from my house. I gotta find out who owns it. These pics were taken with a cell phone, so excuse the quality.

    Snagged no parts. Southern Gentlemen respect other folks property.

    Had plenty of paper in the car and not writing instrument. I had no business cards either. But, I'm pretty sure he would not have called an insurance agent's card with no note written on the back about the car.

    I liked the 302 H.O. he had on th sides of the Grabber scoops. It appears to be a '73.

    Looks like something out of the 80's! Would be a neat find, to see sitting on the side of the road.

    Oh the shame of it all. I never even thought of getting Maverick info business cards. I've just always wrote on the back of my professional business cards.

    The dirty shame of it. I feel like I need to take another bath.:(
