    Looks like you used watercolor paint. Why is there a toilet bowl in your front yard?

        I'd like to take one right on the hood, sorry that wasn't nice.

        Jokes, just jokes.

        Seriously, what kind of paint did you use? It doesn't
        look like automotive paint and why didn't you use tape to line things up better?

          Might want to not park that thing on the curb on garbage days, they might pick it up along with the trash.

            The survival of this thread to its third page - without being locked - is proof that R3Vs spirit is still here. Sad but fucking hilarious!!

                I used rustoleum, its good for the two rust spots I had and it comes off fairly easily with some brakekleen. Nice spirit. I see im going to like these forums...

                  that thing actually passes tech?

                  Go to maaco, spend 400$ and be done.. that looks like a late 50's boat paint scheme... but maybe the stripe and stickers add 20 hp??

                    So you have money for Scorpion cat backs, fuh raze seats, and a roll cage, but you can't afford a Maaco paint job?

                    If I was a tech inspector and someone came w/ a car like that, I think I'd shit myself (laughing so hard, and at the same time being afraid that there are actually cars like that being driven on the street).

                      That car is halfassed.

                      If you are going to do something halfassed (rattle can a car) at least spend the time to get it too look somewhat decent.

                      Sold it.

                        That's what I was saying, he could have at least masked off the car straight
                        with some tape to get the lines even. Why not use automotive primer
                        and do the whole car over with the stripes painted flat black?

                                Pretty sweet. The different colored bottlecaps definately set the car off.

                                Where did you get that roll-cage-bar-thingy? Looks like bent bicycle tubing.
