Quoted from Lathroum:
WHY??? actually if it was a basket case I understand... the pin has fairly easy rules... and I think it is a very hard pin to master... I like it...
It was more than a basket case. I got a call from a friend saying she knew a guy who rescued a pin from a fire. It sat in his garage for a long time and he decided he was not going to do anything with it; so free if I pick-up. I asked if she knew the title and she said "Indiana Jones I think".
Hooked up the trailer and took off like a rocket only to find Indiana Jones means some kind of adventure theme. Saved from a fire means this was on the first floor of a second floor fire. It got filled with water. His rescue was to throw it in a garage and watch the mold and rust compete to take over. He said he plugged it in but nothing happened. He's lucky nothing happened.
The only things untouched were the boards. Pulled them out, tossed the cab in the yard for the party then to the dump soon after. But I like to pull out the picture once and a while to make people freak out.
