Pick-A-Part Pet Peeve

[cleszkie]

Say that five times if you can. Anyways, went to a local pick-a-part to see if any good inventory was brought in. Found three 67-72 era pickups. However, it seemed like the previous customers removed the parts they wanted with nothing more than prybars and hammers, totally destroying everthing else in their wake. This was the case on most of the other trucks of various ages and makes as well. It royally pisses me off that these lazy, no-tool-owning, jacka$$es are out there needlessly destroying the inventory. Maybe I'm a little anal, but when I remove an unwanted part to get to another, I try to put that part back (undamaged) with the bolts that originally held it in place, or place it undamaged in the engine compartment, cab, or bed for someone else to use. I can't tell you how many times I've come across a truck with the stainless windshield trim half pulled out and twisted into a pretzel, and the windshield glass kicked out by some idoit trying to remove the trim without simply cutting the rubber gasket with a utility knife. Rant over....
