handywork of my fine wife

I wish my wife wouldn't let her sister drive her stuff. Everytime she does she wrecks something. Sister broke the window in my wifes jeep, it was frozen and wouldn't move, so she just lays on the switch til the cable snaps.

Then she says it was going to break anyway it just happened to me!!!
It's a good thing I take meds for hypertension.

 

They bring back the day I was in the shower and my wife at the time came in a said, Your going to kill me.

Just got done restoring my 1969 Mustang Mach 1. That day I put the strips on and decided to bring it back to the house to so she could see it when she got home from work. Well in the mine time I decide to get a shower to clean up.

That when she came in the bathroom and said. Your going to kill me. I said why. she said she was backing into the driveway and did not see the Mustang. I said Shit and got out to check what she did .

She hit the PS fender behind the wheel and slide up along the door stopping just short of the quarter panel. I wanted to kill her but just said I can fix it.


I can feel your pain. But later you will laugh and till the story to all your friends.

 

Grilles are so much easier to repair than marriages. So vent here, we're good for it. Then give her a smile and a hug and tell her that she's more valuable than anything on wheels. You'll reap what you sow.

 

i`d be f***in`livid if mine did that. and I`m not even a FORD guy

 

it's a chance to upgrade to a chrome grill!

 

I remember way back when I was an FNG and posted really lame threads.

 

This is the best response in this entire thread. Thanks for the wisdom deuceman32.

Years ago my firsts wife was backing my 46 Chevy PU [it was a perfect rust free original]out of the garage with the drivers door open-she ripped the door off the truck and did a bunch of DAMAGE to the truck and the poor garage.

 

Unfortunately vehicle repairs are usually cheaper than divorces so as of right now I'm still married. I usually bite my tongue when she damages her own vehicle.

On the other hand, last Summer I lost my cool when I noticed several door dings on the side of my '41 caused by her parking beside it in the garage. When I asked her about it, she replied that "What's the big deal? It's just an old money pit anyway."

After all the words had been said and the dust settled; it took nearly a week before we spoke...

 

I look at it this way , Shit Happens !
Just remember , a good wife is harder to replace than a grill ! At least it's not one of those wifes that bitch all the time because you have a hotrod !
I am lucky in that respect . I have a damn good car wife ! She always got tired of me working in the driveway and could only work on my car when the weather was good . So she went and had a 2 car garage built for me !
Like I said , a good wife is very hard to replace !

In 1965 I had just bought a new El Camino and the wife was driving it to work. I get a call at work and she tells me she had a "little" accident on the way to work. Now this Elky is only about 3 months old. When I get home and see the car it is ripped oped like a can of sardines from the taillight to the front of the drivers door. She made a right turn on a red light and got nailed. She lasted another 20 years (the wife) but now I'm happy and single.

 

You could always "Lawyer Up"!

 

If it's got tits or tires it's gonna be a pain in the ass.

 

I used to have a chain link fence with gates so the kids could play on the driveway safely. Some years back, my wife borrowed my '82 Chevy wagon one evening to go deliver Tupperware. She hits the gate post while backing out, knocks the trim off the side and leaves a 5 foot long crease down the side. She felt bad though. I had to gorilla the fence post back so the gate could close.

We always had the standing rule with the kids, when there was a car moving in the driveway, go up on the front stoop where we can see you. They had great seats for the show.

My first two ex-wives really caught Hell from me when they did some brainless things...then ,after losing a coupla brick houses and everything else...it dawned on me....Tis better to be the "Plaintiff" than the "Defendant"... !!!!

So ,now with this Wife ,I can either be (A).Happy or (B). Right....I tend to choose (A)

 

It's 1977, Johnstown Pa. I'm already livin' in Florida but my brother is living at home with mom and dad. He's out of the Navy and going to college. Dad works for the power company.

It's raining cats and dogs and the power goes out. Dad has to go to work and get crews out. My brother's car, a Gremlin X wit the 304 V8, is the last car in the driveway. Dad takes it 'cause he is in a hurry. Dad doesn't get home that nite. It's the Johnstown flood. He calls about seven the next morning with the news that the flood waters came up about 10 feet around the building and the Gremilin is bouncing around out in the parking lot somewhere.

My mom rushes upstairs to tell my brother the news. He sez "Did ya have to wake me up for that?"

Didn't have flood insurance so, my brother and dad rebuilt the Gremlin in the drive-way. Dad had been an engine builder at one time so the job went pretty smoothly. Since the car had been submerged for some time, they took apart the engine, tranny and rear end. They also rewired it. You can't beat the memories my brother has of the two of them rebuilding that car. Never could get the bathtub ring out of the headliner, tho'

 

ouch that hurt ..my wife would have said I didn't do that and don't know how that happened, been thinking about a replacement for awhile now, lol

 

It can happen with brother in laws as well. Visiting them a couple winters back. My BIL leaves for work at 3AM, I KNEW what he was capable of so I moved my truck even farther off the driveway into his grass. Sure as shit he opened the garage door, backed out and STILL managed to find my bumper and fog light on the far edge of a 20 foot wide driveway!@

 

Now tell her how much you've spent on the car total.

 

My ex watched me back up in the woods with the tailgate down until the tree stopped me, then wondered why I was mad. Sometimes I think they do chit like this to get their jollies off!

 

She wrecked the car and she was sad,
And so afraid that I'd be mad,
But what the heck.
Though I pretended hard to be,
I guess you could say she saw through me,
And hugged my neck.

Now see the tree how big it's grown......

Whole song > http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=59BZxgohr9g

 

my wifey would say "why did you park that pos in my way?"

 

im not sure if its been mentioned or not..

but you could teach her how to fix it...a little hands on training.

hey what could it hurt

 

The Xwife tried to break my legs with her 67 Ambassador wagon. I was standing infront of my,then cherry 57 Ranch Wagon. She backed up while I was yellin and she put er in low and nailed it. Did a helluva lot of damage for a 8 foot run. I jumped and landed on both cars. She took off and has been with her boyfriend for all these 17 years. GOOD RIDDANCE.
I'm not bitter though. yea.

 

I take it now you are trying to improve your response posts.
Keep trying, you'll get it eventually...

 

thanks for the warm welcome there chuckles....i'll try to do better....here's my wife and the marriage is a 15yr honeymoon





another just for you

 

Was she trying to turn it into an Edsel ?

 

Now thats funny shit right there !!

 

She isn't blond by any chance?

 

Years ago, my wife wrecked my 1 week old brand new truck. I let her take it to work so that she could show it off. She didn't even make it there. It was all her fault. Think that was a hard phone call for her to make to tell me what had happened? I still have the wife and the truck and love them both.

Stuff happens.
