Stolen Car--
The owner of a magnificent 1956 Chevrolet convertible, wrote to say he had
restored the car to perfection over the last few years, and sent this:
On a very warm summer afternoon he decided to take his car to town It needed
gas, as the gauge was practically on empty, but he wanted ice cream, so he
headed first to his favorite ice cream shop.
He had trouble finding a parking space and had to park the car down a side
street.
He noticed a group of young guys standing around smoking cigarettes and eyeing
the car rather covetously. He was a bit uneasy leaving it there, but people
often take interest in such an old and well-preserved car, so he went off to
enjoy his ice cream.
The line at the ice cream shop was long and it took him quite a while to return
to his car. When he did, his worst fears were realized... his car was gone.
He called the police and reported the theft.
About ten minutes later the police called him to say they had found the car
abandoned near a gas station a few miles out of town.
It was unharmed and he was relieved. It seems just before he called, the police
had received a call from a young woman who was an employee at a self-service
gas station. She told them that three young men had driven in with this
beautiful old convertible. One of them came to the window and prepaid for 20
dollars worth of gas.
Then all three of them walked around the car. Then they all got in the car and
drove off, without filling the tank.
The question is, why would anybody steal a car, pay for gas that they never
pumped and then abandon the car later and walk away?
IF YOU GIVE UP----
SCROLL Down
They couldn't find where to put the gas!
