RAT Found in Engine Bay of Max!!!

Well this is kinda of a weird story. This week when I was installing my new springs and struts (see homepage) I popped the hood to see a big pile of freedom fries..... aka french fries piled on top of my intake manifold. I was a little dumb founded by this, not knowing if my friends played a pratical joke on me or if someone else just walking along some how got into my car and popped the hood. Well the next day I went back to clean all the burnt grease and dirt off my engine. I noticed a small furry thing up by my headlight. Not knowing what it was I took a stick and rolled it around. I noticed it was somekind of mouse or rat leg. Some how a rat either going after the fries in my engine bay or making a nest got caught up in the fan chopping him to pieces. I also found a piece of the scull that still had the wiskers attached. I threw the mangled limbs into the yard then realizing I could have grossed out some org members with a few photos, but I couldn't find them out in the yard. Owell

not a max but ugly just the same, my father started his truck and heard a screech... a cat had climbed up on his engine and was shredded when he started it.

Haha, how did they pop your hood and put french fries on your motor. Maybe you ran over a little kid with a happy meal?

Just the other day while changing my filter, I found what appeared to be a human finger on the radiator shield. Turns out, there was a Whopper Jr. with cheese down there also. BTW, ring on the finger was engraved "hoffa", ring any bells??

Rat Engines

I've heard of a 327 rat and a 427 rate, but never a 3.5L rat.

Yeah I wish I took a picture of atleast the part of the skull I found, but after I couldn't find the leg out in the yard I just threw the skull piece out there aswell.
