probably some real estate guy in financial problems needing to "liquidate" his assets...

I can hear it now, "Hello, Allstate?"

I bet he had a younger woman in the car! That has always let to trouble. She said look at these and next thing he knew he was in the water.....seen it before.

What kind of car did you destroy and how deep was the water??

;^)

I fell off the boat

I'm tellin' ya, this stuff really works. This mishap could have been avoided. Just spray a little on the leading edges and no more problems.

hahah... thats a riot! didnt take long to come up with that

I'll give him $5.00 USD for that car. Even if it didn't run, it'd look pretty badass sitting in my driveway (and even more fun watching people try to steal it!)

The story made Fox News. They said the car was never shut off and ran for about 15 minutes before it hydroliced (sp)

hydroliced ???

Locked up because water is incompressible.

ahhhh... gotcha

That really sucks then! Saw an earth scrapper go in the ocean running a supercharger Detroit 6-71. Back in my SeaBee days the rack stuck on it injectors. Threw a piston right though the block after it sucked water into the intake.

Just saw the video on the news of the car going in the lake! Some kids thought the car was cool and were recording it on their cell phone, and you can see the guy veer off the main road, drive straight down a dirt road for a stretch, then into the lake...no way it looked accidental. Have a feeling the insurance company isn't sending the check yet.
