Passed By My Own Tire

When I worked for a towing company back in the mid 70s, we towed a bunch of impounded cars and about 1 a week, owners would climb the fence at night and try to repo their cars.
More than 1 were found still in the yard with the car sitting on the ground.
We always took all the lug nuts off and put the hubcaps back on.

As a side note, my wrecker had an engine driven air compressor to run the air gun and I could also pump up tires. It was a mopar A/C compressor!!
