Hobby cars are a lot of work. While you eventually dream of driving that vintage Monte Carlo around town, dazzling your neighbors with a shiny new paint job, stuntin' rims, and a pair of dice on the rearview mirror, the first thing every hobbyist mechanic needs to do is get that ol' bucket of bolts running again. So while they have shimmering dreams of grandeur when they look at the rusting frame of their dream car, all the neighbors see is a steel trap of spider webs and oil stains.
So if you're an unlucky hobbyist living next to a person who doesn't share your love for cars, they'll likely never understand the time, energy, and money that goes into your passion project. And if you've got a Karen living next door, you can pretty much kiss your dream car goodbye…
…Unless you're the snarky dad in this next story.
After years of working on a vintage jeep in his front yard, this dad was nearly finished and looking forward to taking his iron baby for a spin. But the Karenish neighbor who shared the duplex with him didn't see the value in his project car and sought only to destroy him for it. So instead of letting her stomp all over him, hitting his car door with hers on her way in, and snitching to the landlord about his 'abandoned' vehicle, he decided to taunt her by toeing the line of the rules.
Read on to get all the juicy details of this neighborly dispute that came through as a win for a guy who's nearly built his own dream car from scratch.
