Guess I'll add this one, even tho it turned out not to be who I thought it was.
In 1983 I was in driving my husband's 1964 Corvette on the 91 highway (Yorba Linda, Cal) with my 3 month old baby. He had told me there was a problem with something and the firewall. While I was driving, I lost all electrical power and glided to the shoulder of the road, which was just a drop off. I put the hood up and was holding my baby trying not to fall off the hill when a tan volkswagon pulled over about 5 car lengths behind me. A man got out and stood there looking at me. I got a real bad feeling. Just then, a car pulled in front of mine and a bunch of old people got out to help me. The man in the volkswagon immediately got in and drove away. For years I thought I had a close call with Ted Bundy, then someone pointed out to me he was in prison in 1983. Nevertheless, I still think the volkswagon guy was going to be trouble.
Just as a funny PS to this story. When the old guy looked under my hood, it fell on his head and we all had to go to the ER. When I got home and phoned my husband who was out of town at the time about my horrible night, his first words were "you didn't leave the vette on the 91 did you?"
