i'm digging the flat black right now, it's so easy to touch up. besides, i haven't concocted a suitable paint scheme for it yet.

we had once (and this was before the pirates movies started...i've been a long time pirate nerd ) took cardboard boxes and various stuff and make my truck into a pirate ship for halloween! this was long before my digital camera so i'm still trying to find pics of it in some of my boxes. it was awesome!!

That would be pretty cool!! We biult a body kit once out of cardboard for a buddies grand prix. We even road tested it up 90 mph! It was only held on with duck tape and it never moved an inch.

Yep...duck tape was what we used too! believe it or not I used to be quite the artistic redneck until i got cityfied. i made all kinds of stuff in art class just using duck tape (i'm just waiting for someone to chime in with "no it's duct tape" it became my trademark in a way.

At first I thought It was your Pontiac!! Something like that would look awsome. Is it single stage or base/clear?

Before you criticize someone you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way you'll be a mile away and will have their shoes.

Re:monstercarlo now painted 2 Months ago Karma: 11  
three things you'll never hear a redneck say


those tires are too big

i thought graceland was kind of tacky

duct tape won't fix that.

i've been thinking about how to paint my car, but i keep drawing a blank.
