I'm thinking I might just walk away and be sad that it will never be driven again.

The problem with letting them win is before long I'd expect them to start taking over my other cars and/or house.

Yeah, I would probably have been tempted to have just closed the door, soaked the interior in gasoline, and light the whole thing up...

Somehow, the perspective and the big rubber gloves made me feel like I'm watching a video of the Pyro in Team Fortress 2. Maybe because of "kill it with fire."

Wait till winter. They won't put up much of a fight when its zero degrees out. Hope they haven't ruined the interior by then.

Set a big block of dry ice on the floor, close it up tight. They'll all be dead in a few hours.

I'm surprised he can even walk with the one he has.

There are cars in existence I would fight a nest of hornets for. A 1980ish el Camino isn't one of them.

There's not an El Camino on earth worth that. I mean, if they had time to build that, it obviously wasn't running anyway. Burn that E36 M3 down.
