This story smells unless I'm misunderstanding something, the whole headliner ("ceiling padding") would be covered in gore and filth, the seats would be stained and ruined, the carpets too, and likely even vinyl/plastic door cards and paneling would be messed up if the car sat for any period of time. Oh, and there was a jagged hole coming out of the sheet metal roof, which would cause a pretty severe water leak (and then mold) throughout. If the car went to a body shop before hitting the auction block they would have replaced and reconditioned everything, but most importantly they would have patched the fucking bullet hole and painted the panel.
States have various abandonment laws too, it's not a case of "fuck it", it's more like "it's been 60/90/120 days so go file the form and we'll sell/junk this piece of shit".
RE: The bitch running over counter-protestors in Yorba Linda, looks like they're giving her the Holmes treatment with those charges and bail. I wonder if there's good evidence behind the attempted murder charge or it's just a prosecutor sperging out? Kind of satisfying either way...
You could be correct, all I know is the dude got it at a sheriff's sale and he told me that story a couple months after he'd scrapped it because it broke down. I'd assumed he meant that someone else had replaced the interior upholstery afterward and then he was monkeying with it, probably trying to put some ghetto speakers in or some shit. Same guy told some tall tales occasionally so your account makes more sense to me.
Either way sometimes you can get a hell of a deal at estate sales or sheriff's sale if nobody else bids on it. Then again you might also find cocaine bricks stashed away somewhere. Depending who you are maybe that wouldn't be such a bad thing. I don't know what year the Snack Van is but I'd assume anyway that he isn't leasing it.
