Road Kill

Last night on my way home from the cruise night in Paris in my 58, I hit not one, not two, but three friggin skunks! The stink in my shop is brutal.

 

Anybody else got any good road-kill stories with their old rides? This ain't my first with this car. Got a cat last year and a bird jammed into the grill too. Two weeks ago I splattered bird guts all over the front of the 58. No dents thankfully.

Years ago, I hit a porcupine with my 55 Chevy......Quills were sticking out the sidewalls of the tires.

Last year, I hit a pheasant with the company van on a narrow country road.....looked in the mirror, saw feathers everywhere.

Nice. What are the quills like to deal with?

i ran over a giant skunk about 17 years ago, i felt it roll under the car, i stopped, reveresd and that skunk was gone, how it survived i cant say.  i also hit a trutle last year towing a van from peterborough, it was already hit but my car tote is 3 inches off the ground i had no time to swerve, 6 inches of turtle doesnt fit well beneath 3 inches of tote

On the way to a show this past Sunday, Bambi ran out in front of a buddy's 30 Ford, he was able to swere to the left enough to just clip the ankles on the bumper, other than a little fur left behind, absolutely no damage.
