1) My 1st car, a '70 Mustang fastback. I was doing the last of my prep to take it to the body shop for a repaint in my parents garage. The garage has one of those old single piece wooden doors with 4 springs. Springs were broken on one side, so the door was propped open with a metal pole. Backing the car out of the garage (1st time in about 2 months) - yep, hit the pole, garage door starts down, jam it into drive and the center bar impacts the trunk lid. Doh!
2) My current FGF: Loading the car onto a full trailer by myself to take it in for glass beading. It's a homemade trailer from a friend with a crash bar across the front and an electric winch. I smoothly pull the car up the ramps and forget that the truck is on the street and the trailer is up on the driveway. Yes, the car clears the incline and starts rolling forward on it's own. I jump on the trailer to hold the car but its headed for the crash bar. I catch the center post with the unprotected front end of the hood (bumper previously removed). Crunch.
