Washed and waxed the truck...
on Sunday (you wouldn't know it from this damn dirt road I drive on everyday 
) and this happened too me on the way home from work yesterday. 
I was just leaving work to kick off a good afternoon. First stop was going to be the dealer so I can get my AC working, then I was going to go to Hooter's and check out how my friend likes her new job.
Well, after having to go back to work real quick, I get on the road. About 2 miles up the road, a very nice '76 CJ7 decides to drop a driveshaft.
As you can see from above I'm lucky I had my arm inside and it didn't come through the windshield. At first I thought it hit the grill (dreams of a shiny billet grill), but when I pulled over and checked it out, it was the fender.
Why couldn't have been the hood? I want a flipper cowl! 
The whole situation is kinda ironic. I just bought a '78 CJ7 Saturday
and this is the second driveshaft I've seen come off this summer. The First one was off of a old K-5 Blazer. Luckily I was behind him and heard it howling before it cut loose. 
Thanks for letting me vent. I'm sure I'll get a few "Damn dood, that sucks!"
And yes, it'll buff right out.
Well, the Geico guy his here. Wish me luck!
