So I have this car right? Well anyway its an extra car that was given to me for free, and lets say that it needs a little Tlc. So the plan is to give this car the much needed love and then sell it to turn a profit. So its been sitting at my work on in the back... I mean way back... you cant even see the car unless you are looking for it. So on friday I try to start the car because I figure what better place to start than making sure it runs like its supposed to. So I get my trusty jumper cables out and I hook them up because lets face it the car has been sitting for 2 years its battery is going to be dead. To get to the point I start the car up fires up on the second turn, great no problems here. I let the car run for a bit but since I dont have any gauges hooked up I decide to turn it off and work on it more on next monday. Well I throw my jumper cables into the beat up car and lock the doors not thinking much of it because I never use them anyway might as well be with the car that needs them. Come back to work on monday and the car is moved, okay no problem my friends moved it because a tree was going to fall on it. Then I start thinking how did they move it the door was locked and the ebrake was set, hrmm so I start asking around and apparently the door was unlocked on sat. morning. Weird but no problem it didnt really matter if it was locked it wasnt in any condition to steal and it sat for 2 years with the windows down and it didnt get stolen. So today I go to start it back up and find that my jumper cables are missing??? Not only that but the door lock is broken on the drivers side from someone breaking in, now this is really wierd because it wasnt worth breaking into its a POS. Then I borrow some jumper cables and start the car, but wait the car only runs for about 1 min and then dies. Strange it ran great the other day and nothing has changed, but wait something had changed the asshole that stole my jumper cables also syphon'd all the gas out of the car. Now tell me what kind of person breaks into a car for jumper cables and a couple of gallons of gas. Really it wasn't worth it at all especially for gas that had sat for 2 yrs and prob. wasnt worth burning in the first place. In the end the stupid thief saved me from dropping the gas tank to empty the bad gas out :) and I lost a good pair of jumper cables.
