Don't Park Under a Tree in a Hurricane

Post by Exit98 »

When I first encountered this car the entire tree was still there, spanning its length. The next time I passed the front and back of the tree had been cut away, just leaving a chunk the length of the vehicle. Each time I regretted I didn't have a camera. Finally five days later, camera in hand, I passed it again. More of the tree had been removed, leaving just the giant piece in the front. Sure glad it was unoccupied.

I see you are from Wall Twp., NJ. If my memory serves me right I had a few fun nights in your neck of the woods at the Stone Pony back in the day. I'm glad no-one was hurt when that tree came down. Living in the Philly, NY, South Jersey and North Jersey areas up until 2004, I have a lot of family along the coast. Hope you and yours are all doing well.
Buon giro a tutti! - enjoy the ride!

from looking at the "low ride" front suspension, the poor guy still has a lot of tree to remove. the question is why doesnt the insurance company haul the thing away, tree and all.
