    I dunno... maybe it's just me, but if I'm out in the 'hood looking to do a drive-by on someone, I'm not sure the Miata would be my first choice as a rolling gun ship.

    I'd like some blacked out windows and thick-ass Cadillac doors, please...

    Perhaps they were being used as fuses!

    It's been known to happen...

    I found an 8" kitchen knife jammed in one of radiator fans in my Eclipse years ago. The dealer had said the mechanic didn't know what was wrong with it.

    I found something weird in my car when Mike Kuhn helped me with my roll bar. We found it under the carpeting on the rear shelf of my '97. It seems that the previous owner liked to take weird pictures of people with bad skin diseases. There were about ten-twelve pics of people just standing in their underwear like they were @ the doctor's office. Nasty skin disorders, all of them!
