Liars...

Travis Barker's '54 Caddy, "Gloria", looks a lot like one I photographed years ago. I mean, the similarities are canny!

It's funny, cuz they even did one of his shows where his ex bought him a car from D'Ago. He probably claims that 'un too.

 

haha, nice caddy though

 

They certainly don't know the car...the front bumper is from a 1955 Caddy...NOT a '53 as stated, the grille itself looks hand-made since it is a straight bar type and the body side scoop is a '54...don't know about the "teeth" being added...the rest of the car looks '54 with the exception of the fins...they look like they have been modified...

Liars, eh...??? I don't know what the "other" car looked like RF...you got pix...???

R-

 

He is a scrawny **** isn't he...

I love when they ask him specifics about the car and he has no idea how to answer...

HE chopped it 2inches...

Where the **** is the ****** on his steering wheel? That would freak me out...

 

He never said he did the work, he said I had it done...Did he buy the car after it was built for someone else?

At least he is spending his money on something with soul, compared to the other celebrities....

 

Watch it again...

When he's talking about his windows not fitting, he says they don't fit because "HE chopped it 2 inches" and because "HE chopped it so much."

 

Roger, was that sarcastic, or you didn't know that's D'Agostino's old Caddy? I shot it in Paso, just as it looks today, quite a few years ago.

 

www.johndagostinokustomkars.com has a picture, and it wasn't named Gloria.

 

That is gangsta!lol

 

isnt that a d'agostino caddy! i swear i heard he bought that car!what a bunch of ****!!! what a fake!

 

i guess im a lil late should of refreshed my screen! thanks fink it is or was johns!

 

No Rob...it wasn't meant as sarcastic...I was curious to see pix of the "other" Caddy and I did not know that was a John D'Agostino Caddy...guess I missed that one...in a****st all his other kustoms...

Thanx for the clarification...now I tend to agree with your thread ***le...

I have no idea WHO Mohawk guy is either (obviously he has a couple of bux to spend on a D'Agostino car)...nor do I know the African-American dude...seems either are no different than other people, taking credit for other's work...that's the way the world is these days....

R-

 

You see a lot of that kind of lying these days.

Lots of credit where credit isn't due, lots of feelings of en***lement, etc. Guess it comes with the hair.

 

I wouldnt expect any less from a guy who use to get thrown into dumpsters before the days of Blink

 

Oh boy, since when is the HAMB politicaly correct. In that case, Id like to be adressed as a european-american, and not just the average white guy. He's the rapper guy from Pimp My Ride

 

He's just a teeny-bopper "punk" rock star...IMO, no more talent in his band that spews cute little Hot-topic jingles than in his custom "building" skills.

Yeah, I knew the guy that originally built it in Torrance- he was building a nice '40 Merc a few years back.

Whoops- wrong car- I know the Blue car he claims to have built as well.

00:33-00:52
Rapper: now what did you do to this car that you insisted on having done?
Barker: uh.......then went on to describe his 'favorite part of the car'

01:25-01:40
Rapper: what was the hardest thing that you insisted on having done tho this car?
Barker: Probably chopping the top...took two inches off the top......my windows still dont fit exactly....because I chopped it so much.

01:46-2:00
Rapper: Whats the interior like?
Barker: the interior is actually is like uh semi like original...WE haven't really done much to it ....like really tuck and roll.....um...leather

that was entertaining.

 

he's still a little ***** taking a lot of credit for something he invested nothing but money into. At least if you're going to roll that car, you'd think he'd put the bong down long enough to learn a uh... I mean uh... like, uh... a um... bit a bout it it, ya know?

 

if I had a kid with hair like that he'd have a red handprint upside his head until it grew back.

 

I wonder if he shoots "******s" out of his gun..

 

I love that car....

Aside from everything else, from what I have seen he has good taste when it comes to vehicles.

 

in my opinion he's like everyone else that tries to buy cool or have it done. he is just a dime a dozen today. since when do you take credit for someone elses hard work. its one thing to have helped but another to have someone do it for you. that is the problem now days, just because you have a custom/rod doesn't mean you built so don't take credit for getting it running or building it.

 

WOW!!!!! I did not know that a kool *** early-mid-fifties caddy built by a well known car builder would be considered "GANGSTA" in the custom rap car building now? I just saw the youtube clip and I am lmao. YO, DAT DER IZZZZ GANSTA! KNUX!

 

It just goes to show ya that there are those that know the background and where the credit really goes to than these attention getting look at me, look what I bought but I take credit for making ********ting jack-***es! 'nuff said! KNUX!

 

Ha Ha...he's so punk! This is actually him before Blink 182....when he was in the Aquabats!

 

HAHAHA, that is awesome

 

I actually have no problem with a guy who pays to have a car built to his specifications, taking credit for the build. Like: Buy the car, find a guy with more skills to do the work, tell him what you want, negotiate with him to make the plan meet reality, pay the man, have YOUR car the way YOU wanted, say YOU built it...

I know you didn't actually build it but it was your Idea. I don't really hate you for it...

But if you buy a COMPLETED, KNOWN, car and say YOU built it. You're a HOMO... Even if you say YOU had anything to to with the build or the decisions that were made during the build... You're a HOMO.

Hell I would just be proud to be able to say I own a D, Agostino car...

 

Am I the only one out of the loop here? Travis who???
