Weirdest Thing Happened Today - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I'm a college student and happened to see something very odd happen. I was sitting in a campus computer lab and all the sudden some chick walks in with a grill off a late model Caddy tucked under her arm. Doesn't that just strike you odd?

Odd,no,it happens everyday.

LT4XTREME · 12-08-2004, 01:14 PM

Track her down and get the full story. Did she steal it? Did she buy it for her boyfriend? Or is she a cool chick that's into cars? If the latter is true she might be worth finding out about and someday you might see her carrying a N.O.S. grill for you old chevy under her arm.

Remember the "Benz" hood ornament craze? It's grills nowadays

ale8oneboy · 12-08-2004, 01:30 PM

She looked like an art student maybe. I agree, it could be grills now. Next thing ya know they'll have chains around their necks with grill attached. Could have been stolen. They may be as easy to steal as the grill off an late model S-10. (Pop hood, snap, snap no tools required)... Watched a friend do this a few times. He joked about going to a dealership and picking up a chrome one to replace is plain jane black one. Btw she just walked by again, I confirm it is a grill off a Cadillac Escalade.

I have a 71 GMC grill she could carry around.

Hooter · 12-08-2004, 01:53 PM

most likely she stole it, we used to have people steal the emblem off our beemer on a weekly basis, till we glued them on

**StingRay** · 12-08-2004, 02:10 PM

Nah perfectly normal. Now if she had been naked when she walked by with that grill then THAT would be something to talk about.

You mean people gold plate them and hang them around their necks.

Sounds kinda cumbersome. It would look pretty damn funny though now that I have that visual stuck in my head

You'd have to have a lot of balls to carry around a grille that you just stole.

sicksanta · 12-08-2004, 10:57 PM

Nah its just a diet fad... no frying just grillin

jimfulco · 12-09-2004, 12:46 AM

Maybe it's her grill & she wants it to stay that way.

ale8oneboy · 12-09-2004, 11:36 AM

Could be. They do just snap off. Could be like one of those pull out radios. Worried about your grill? Just take it to work/school with ya.

724wdcopper · 12-09-2004, 05:54 PM

yea, seen lots of 'em lately here in spokompton!

ale8oneboy · 12-10-2004, 10:15 AM

Update:

I found out one of my friends knows this chick. He said she works for a local plant that makes the grills for most new Caddies. She was using it for a presentation. Still odd, sitting around and having chick walk in with a grill. I admit, I would have been even more shocked if she had walked in with a 71' Pickup grill. "Hey ya wanta talk grills?"

That's pretty damn funny 724wdcopper.
