A Blonde, a Car and a Mattress

[BlackVXGTS]

Not really a joke - true story.

A blonde ran over an innerspring mattress on the highway, and decided not to worry - and kept on driving.
It caught on the undercarriage of her Ford.
The ensuing jumble finally whipped around enough to tear a hole in the fuel tank.
The subsequent lack of fuel is what finally brought her vehicle to its knees.
She had managed to drive 30 miles, with a 60 pound tangle of stuff wrapped around her drive shaft.
She had it towed to her Ford dealership, and complained that the vehicle had a 'sort of a shimmy' when she was driving at high speeds.

Attached are the photos of what they found at her Ford Dealership....................

The last photo is by far the best.

They still can't believe their eyes and are still wondering how to remove it.

haha, funny as. reminds me of when a farmer came into a dealership i used to work it with a shimmy at high speeds, he ran over one of his fences in his landcruiser ute.. the result was very similar.

I looked hard at the 3rd photo, and i can't see any arms or legs sticking out, so i guess she's lucky no one was sleeping on it at the time!!!

This is about 8 years old. It wasn't a "blonde".

still bloody funny though. it just shows the sort of things that show up when your working as a mechanic. the best one i had come in to a place i worked for in sydney was an old hq holden. this bloke after much searching found a mint hq holden up in darwin. was told it ran a little rough but was completely driveable so he bought the car. flew up there,checked it out & was all happy then drove it back to sydney. it fitted & farted a little,had a bit of a miss but drove ok. he then dropped it into work for us to go over & find out whats the story with it was. the boss went over it,changed plugs,leads,points etc but it still missed & farted a bit. so i says to him why dont we rip the head off & check the valves. dont be stupid he says,there will be nothing wrong them,its an electrical problem somewhere. eventually he agrees for me to rip the head off,what i found still baffles & amazes me but shows how bloody good the old holden motors are. when i removed the head instead of the normal 6 pistons there was only 5. at some point in its life someone had removed one of the pistons for some reason & stuck a hunk of wood in the cylinder bore. both the boss & the owner were amazed at that,even more the owner considering it drove it from darwin to sydney like that
