The cable/chain was tight, didn't want to risk touching it or having an alarm go off. You can see in the picture the hood is popped open a bit, someone must have tried to check as well. I think I saw the Certi-card on the console.
No way was I going to try opening the hood. If I had a car on my driveway and came out and saw someone trying to open the hood of my car, taking pictures, etc, I'd have a fit. Even though it's been "untouched" for years, I still respect other peoples property. That's why I took some quick pictures and got out of there. If this car was on a driveway at someones house, pictures would have been from the street. The fact that it's right off the sidewalk of a busy street made it a little easier.
Sometimes I've seen a maroon '67 Chevelle parked on the street in front of this space. I've seen it 3 times when I've went down the street on different days. Another curious person I suspect?
