I was at Dave's house one day some 30 years + ago, and I had to go to St.Ann's. It was starting to rain and I had my motorcycle, so Dave told me to take his Plymouth Valiant. I was parked on the road in St. Ann's and I went to the passenger side of the car to throw a bag in the seat. When I opened the door, the door fell off the car car onto the sidewalk. Of course I fairly freaked out and got the door back on and wrapped it around the back window post with my belt. When I pulled back up at Dave's and he saw the belt. He started laughing very loud and said, Oh sorry , I guess I forgot to mention the door.
