i go to community college and i have a night class mondays, (last night). so im driving home and notice a slight bit of static from the radio. its an older car so i figure the original radio is starting to take a dump and think nothing of it so i go out to my car today and im driving up the block and my attention is drawn directly to the antenna on the passenger side fender... some POS snapped my antenna off and the wire on the inside was just flapping around in the wind. people ask me why i buy older cheap cars as my everyday cars and $h1t like this is exactly why i wouldnt leave something nice and valuable in the parking lot. guess thats what i get for being lazy and not putting the antenna down all the time if anyone happens to have a replacment let me know
in the city those hollow antennas get snaped all the time, crack heads smoke out of em. that really sucks, i hate it when i find out somone was f*#^ing with my car. but at least you still have your sterio, hell at least the car was still there.
Some badass probably did it. Real banana bruiser type. I hate thieves and vandals. People like that will get their due. Sorry it happened. Dan
That really bites, pointless, Maybe there is a way to rig a good electrical jolt just for the antenna.. not really but wouldn't it be nice? I wonder if a guy could use a pocket knife and make sharp notches all up and down the antenae so the _ _stards would get thier hands pricked if they tired to handle the antenna.
Coat hangar in the hole will fix it. You can stretch the hangar into a diamond for that true OG balla look.
Sorry too hear that. I hate it when someone does that. It's not like they are even getting anything out of it.
Crap, I use to have a few of those in the box, that I got when I worked at the Ford dealer in 87, I don't remember why, but I ended up with 2, I think I was going to put one on my Capri.
things like that make me think with all my spare time it'd be fun to park in public and hide nearby and watch the car and just wait for some sob to try and vandalize it and beat the $h!t outta them. Just keep it up till word gets round; "don't mess with THAT car! the crazy @$$ owners probly hiding nearby waiting to beat the living $h!t outta you!" And then it'd be funny watchin 'em have second thoughts.
the dealer ships usually have replacement masts that you can some how put in the mechanisim. i did one a long time ago and cant remember the specifics of it.
Interesting. I have seen several snapped off like that, and thought it was some "ghetto style" but had no idea the 'heads were using it to smoke crack through...
