Car Sabotaged by Envious Assembly Line Worker (1973)

“For the Man of Class – Custom-Built Rattle.” The Charleston (GA) Gazette, 13 April 1973. Frank E. Bird of Macon, Ga., said mechanics practically dismantled a $14,500 car looking for a rattle and finally discovered a ball bearing in a door panel. The bearing was wrapped in a note that read: “Well, you finally found it, didn’t you, you rich-so-and-so.”
