My mom went out to pick up my dad after I came home from college yesterday. So anyways my dad comes back and tells me, "your mom is stuck with a car underneath the I-95 underpass. We have to get her out of there". So I quickly grab my cell, keys, and wallet and head out with my dad. To give you some back story my dad teaches at a high school in the automotive program. Well anyways the school nurse donated his 1993 van to the school thinking it was a smart idea. My dad refused it because of the state it was in. The thing was really old, broken and this guy had a terrible "hobby". This hobby was to collect stray cats and take them to shelters. Well the cats would also vomit and do all manners of hell on the carpet. My dad took it anyways to collect the money off it. So my mom is happy to get out of the car baby sitting it and I look inside. There is like baking soda, a cat comb, and Meow Mix all over this car.
Smells like cat shit, piss, vomit, etc. So we try and jump it but the battery is dead. So we get my tiny truck and tie a rope to the van and pull it to an empty parking lot nearby. To make things worse my mom attached a liscence plate from another car to it so it looks legal. Also for some reason there was at least 5 cops that passed by. So we tow it to the parking lot and we ditch it there. My dad breaks the battery holder and pulls the battery out. We take the battery home and charge it up. Then go back to the car and put the battery in and drive it home. So today we took it to the junkyard. Now this is where the story gets really funny! The junkyard gives $200 for it but before the disgusting car can get crushed, a Puerto Rican (from Lowell no doubt) comes to my dad.
He asks if it's his car still because he wants the carpet!
My dad explains the condition of the POS and finds out the guy took the carpeting anyways! I really don't know why that guy wants the carpeting or how he gets the stains/smell out neither.
