Oh gosh this is hilarious. I bought a 91 cutlass convertible recently in Ohio (I live in Florida), but the drivers door is stuck in lock and the passenger is intermittent but can always unlock with a key. I am having the car shipped from Ohio to Florida today. The driver was picking it up, but he was a 15 minutes early, but for some reason he got in the car anyway. Previously I had told him only the passenger door opens consistently, so I told him to use that. I wasn't there at the time, but he called me in a panic. Imagine this conversation in an Arabian accent. "I am locked in your fucking car man, I can't get out. I not know what to do!" I said my daughter will be there in a few minutes, she has the keys, and she can unlock from the passenger side. Now I have to hope the passenger door didn't take a crap too. Savannah gets there, tries to unlock the door... nothing! OMG, the guy is beside himself, and this is verbatim, "I can't roll window down, I am not knowing what to do!" Savannah said why did you get in the car before I was here anyway? He said he was hoping to help and get the driver door open, he's seen this before. Savannah ended up pulling the window back a bit and slipped the ignition key to him. Form there, he just crawled out the drivers window. This cost me an extra $50 bucks, but worth every penny for the lifetime of laughs I will get out of this. Unfortunately I have to pray for no rain, as the window will need to stay down for the entire trip now. I can fix the doors, but obviously can't until it gets to me in Florida.

I'm not mad he got in the car, he had good intentions. I know if the driver needs help to get the car on the truck it costs $50 more. I'm not sure if this qualifies, but I am going to have the extra $50 ready just in case. It'll be here on Friday 5/12. We W-Body people know if one door doesn't work, you better prop the other open if you get in the car without keys though. Obviously he's never owned one lol.

It seems like the shipper should have paid you $50.

Well i Went the pn’pulL today. Found 2 cutlass supremes and ripped the mouldings off each of them. One is really new and still very soft. I bought it for .59 so hoping I can either make it fit or use its profile to buy a new chunk. Amazon of all places has a windshield moulding that looks identical to it so I’m not to worried anymore. My local speedy auto glass place says they can’t source glass for my car front or back! Makes me now add front and rear glass as next must buy and store when/if they ever turn up:in good cpshape at the jy. Also found 2 new rear rotors for my f150. Have not bought rotors from the jy before but these are new!
