I know a guy who had an old beater he was about to trade in or take to a junk yard that was stolen, he got it back a few months later, new brakes, engine fixed, repainted. Nothing like what she had happen, but still funny.

Looks like they had to use a shoehorn to get that V-8 in there.

Her friends are offering her stick shift lessons but the car is in her parents' NJ driveway...Now they know where to find it so they can steal it again.

Ah...couldn’t the cops have waited until the new trani was in....??
Ya, next time they’ll car jack her at an intersection.
Besides a .45, she needs a cutoff switch.

“Overhaulin’ is an American automotive reality TV show that ran for five seasons on TLC between 20042009. The show remains available via re-runs and syndication.”...
“The show’s premise was that an unknowing “victim” the mark, in the show’s language is nominated to be “Overhauled” by their family or friends, the Insiders. Their car, usually an old and tired antique car was obtained through some ruse. Some common examples included the car being “stolen” by Chris and Chip, a car being misplaced or lost at a mechanic’s shop, or the car being towed away by “police”.
An integral part of the show was when the two co-hosts play tricks on the unsuspecting mark, sometimes acting in roles of insurance adjusters or law enforcement agents, other times helping the Insider, while Chip Foose and a team of mechanics dubbed “The A-Team” have a week to remake the car into a custom masterpiece. Each show ended with the surprise reuniting of owner and newly made-over car.”

I was wondering what kind of v8 would fit in an accord.

Not exactly what I had pictured in my mind.

In 1985 I got ticketed drag racing a Chevette down in Arlington that somone had crammed a small block into (they had to move the firewall).
The cops wanted to see the engine, so I got to see under the hood. They kept the body looking kind of rust bucket-ish so no one would suspect...
