.. found this one. It wants to be a Ford.

Found this poor guy sitting on the street in Oceanside; basically we were thrown on the grille when we drove by in our Jeep, so we stopped and tried to get a closer look, and upon closer look.. it's the grille of a Jaguar XJ6, Series 2 [73-79 era]. And yes, that's a rattle-can GOLD bumper to ehm.. match?

Although, for all we know, he just threw that in there to cover the smile the Chevy has when it's got no bumper or grille.

Poor Jaguar, Poor Chevy.

Some people just shouldn't be allowed to use tools.
Poor truck looks kinda confused, maybe a little scared.

Thumbs down Re: .. found this one. It wants to be a Ford.

i still wonder what some people are thinking when the put a tool in their hands and do things like that to a chevy. if it were a ford or a dodge it would not bother me as much.

Re: .. found this one. It wants to be a Ford.

Someone needs a beating...

suzq044 - I was walking into a chicken finger place one day and this lady rolls her window down and says to me: hi there! When the kids saw your truck('65 c10 step) they went: it's MATER!

I just bust out laughing and said 'thanks'.

Of course, we all know Mater is based on the previous body style... but it was pretty funny to me.
