Obviously this guy came from a scrambled gene pool.
Let's pray that he never fathers a child!!

The guy looks as though he was once human. Cut his hair and clean him up and he would look human again, and that just what his court appointed and paid for lawyers will do. What's really scary is that "deer in the headlights" look in his eyes. You're looking at the pyschological effects of pot, dude! I smell paranoia. Drug induced paranoia to be sure. He probably thought he was ripping off a plaything of a one percenter or some such scenario.

Too bad it didn't have a plate glass windshield.

Re: Model A stolen by a deranged idiot
 

never been to No. Cal OR Oregon, why all the weirdos? And the tats, I'm seeing more and more around the Midwest even.

To sum this up, and Model A related, there is more and more DISRESPECT in our country, people who disrespect their bodies aren't gonna give a hoot about YOUR property. Or Your safety.

Something has to change boys..............

One word: Methamphetamine

Meth is rampant in this country, especially in the Northwest, look at the Scabs.

And to think this is a picture taken of him just a year ago. :) Meth is bad.

That story with picture was even on an Austrian newspaper on page 3....

Re: Model A stolen by a deranged idiot
 

Like others, I find it hard to believe he was able to start it. Were the keys just sitting in the ignition? If not, how would he know how to hot wire it? Also, how many people who haven't been around Model As know where the starter button is? Or how to choke it? it's not like a modern car where you just turn the key to make it run. And it would be even harder to start a Model A for the first time if you are "messed up" on alcohol or drugs. I know old guys who have been around other old cars that don't know how to start or drive a Model A. Something is weird here.......

Re: Model A stolen by a deranged idiot
 

I have to wonder if he just put in in neutral and coasted down a hill into the drink. That would be easy enough for a idiot.

Re: Model A stolen by a deranged idiot
 

We (wife, her sister, 12 y.o. niece) ended up leaving because of the behavior of the crowd (drunkenness, profanity). I commented that I've never voluntarily hung around that type of person and wasn't about to start.

Bend is a beautiful place, very scenic, full of very nice people, and several nice vintage cars. And a few bad apples. I don't know what attracts the dirtbags to these places, but NoCal and OR seem to have way more than their share. It might have something to do with the people in charge having an excess of tolerance for antisocial behavior.

Re: Model A stolen by a deranged idiot
 

I like to talk about the weird people here in the Portland area but I don't think they are much weirder than people elsewhere. I have traveled a good share of the US over the years and I think you find good and bad people everywhere. But I think the people of Oregon in the outlying areas of Oregon are very independent people and they work together when the need is there. So there are many good people in this state so please don't trash it.

So guess the point of this rambling is please don't give the Oregon people such a "bad" name. You will find all types of people in the world today, some good and some bad. Maybe more fitting the bad category than there was a number of years ago.

Re: Model A stolen by a deranged idiot
 

I LOVE central Oregon, wish I could live there, but family had other plans! Also love the Gold Country of CA, the Shasta area, the coast, Washington state, Idaho, Montana, Utah… Lots of good, clean, rust-free vintage cars in those places.

Re: Model A stolen by a deranged idiot
 

I think we all share in noticing how people's human minds are so different "everywhere" today when compared to years ago.

Appears that nobody can predict which State or which Country will experience for example the next group of Kindergarten student children that will get stabbed, shot, or kidnapped.

When small drug peddlers are caught, their hands are slapped, & they are later turned loose.

Ever wonder why no investigation is conducted to find the highly protected source of the drug dealing wholesalers.

Mass fortunes are made everywhere with laundered drug money.

Re: Model A stolen by a deranged idiot
 

Kind of ironic that it happened while the owner was at church.
Like the Bible says "Trust in God but don't forget to tie your camel"

Re: Model A stolen by a deranged idiot
 

I agree with you Fred, there is weird people every where, This country is running wild with them every where. No state is immune. And I see no change in site.

Re: Model A stolen by a deranged idiot
 

he went from a nice looking cat, to a deranged human??!!

Re: Model A stolen by a deranged idiot
 

I wonder if he didn't have a father or grandfather that had a Model A ? -no way anyone that is not already familiar with a car of this vintage is going to be able to start it-and fewer and fewer young people know how to drive a manual trans.

Re: Model A stolen by a deranged idiot
 

Ha ha, Exactly. Ya just a funny picture.

Weird doesn't bother me, plenty of good, nice, generous, loving, weird people.

The thief is non of the above, most likely.

Re: Model A stolen by a deranged idiot
 

Today I read he was booked and released as they had no room in jail for him.
