out in a lot by itself. When he came out someone had parked next to
him and opened their door and put a dent and scratch in his door. He
waited for them to show up but he had to leave. He thinks they did
it on purpose because there was no reason for someone to park where
he was with no other cars and plenty of spaces around. When I had my
29 Ford street rod, which isn't a wide car, I parked at the end spot
next to a grass island and hugged the curb. I came out and some bozo
in an Explorer pulled in next to me with the tires on the line. I
went around and looked, and sure enough, there was a nice white scar
on my door and on the edge of it was my beautiful emerald jewel pearl
1990 silver anniversary Mustang paint. I too waited for the owner to
show up to no avail. So there is no guarantee that you can protect
your car short of having someone stand guard next to it...or carry a
10D nail and return the favor before you drive off.
