Wasn't involved in this one, but a number of guys I knew were. There was a new teacher at the high school who was rather full of himself and constantly issuing detention slips. Since he had a tendency to leave the garage open a dozen or so went to the house and turned his Pinto sideways in it. Would have loved to have seen them doing it and the stroke he nearly had when he found it. The sense of humor of the teen male...

One of my classmates had a Crosley Hotshot. I can't count the number of times he found it one the sidewalk or otherwise similarly disabled. Yes I was involved in a few of those incidents.

One of father's co-workers in a western Pennsylvania steel plant purchased a VW Beetle in the late 50's, not a popular move. He would frequently find it wedged between two poles with inches to work it back-and-forth to free it. Sometimes the rear-end would be set down onto a shipping crate so the rear tires were off the ground. Many of the steel workers of the time were veterans of WW-II European campaigns. But they never did real damage to the car.

As a freshman pledge, I helped lift a senior's Renault 4CV up onto the fraternity house porch blocking the front door. Years later, I had a 1955 4CV myself - traded even up for my ill-fated Lea-Francis MG. After a movie, I returned to the car to find it up on the sidewalk. I knew where to find the culprits and headed down to Portchester and Tarry Lodge. They did buy me a beer.

When I was in college, my friends and I took a VW, put it in an elevator (we had to stand it up) and brought it to the 8th floor of a dorm.
At another time, we took a VW apart and reassembled it on the third floor of the library (the librarian was on duty, we had to distract her).
