Talking Decorated Chevy Truck

I went to the local 7-11 a few months ago and saw this truck there. I tried to upload these pics back then but it wouldn't let me. I was laughing hard but I loved that the owner did this.

Re: Decorated Chevy Truck

There's a whole bunch of "art cars" around Seattle. Most of them are just cars with crappy hand done paint and toys glued to them. I have seen this guy on the freeway -

Either the "Cork lady" is a blast to have at a dinner party, or she is a huge wine(r).

The term "art" is used very loosely, but here's the seattle art car scene website. http://www.seattleartcars.org/

I actually saw Extremo-the-Clown (http://www.extremotheclown.com/ - creepy guy in the pic) driving down 405 with a puppet on his right hand hanging out the driver's side window. I think he was making it dance to the music. I stayed away from him assuming he was on some illegal substance..

And they take donations. Maybe I'll give them my $.02, or maybe not.

And Cool Whip bowls?? I thought they were the only thing you could eat cereal out of when I was a kid....when we got out the good bowls...we used the Parkay ones that were all one color

I thought the Chevette that used to run around here; painted up like a cow, complete with pink snout and a tail hanging out the hatch was bad....
