    re: stupid license plate frames on the Seagrave - at least he didn't have a "My other car is a Flexus" or a "bad boys club" decal.

    I concur on the questionable practice of allowing some dehorn to drive into the meet with his brake drum/wheel combo dragging. Maybe the guy at the gate was distracted by this dude's fine wares?

    Don`t you hate it when you try to take A picture of a vehicle and some A@# gets in the photo. Notice the side mirror.

    ..those socks have magical powers, the rim ran right over them and didn't leave a mark!

    The truck down to the drum still has the tire wedged underneath! Wonder if the rim/debris caused any damage to other vehicles in its wake?
    Looks like a scrap metal scrounger that stops at the swap meet on his way to the metal scrap yard. Does he even make back his swap meet entry fee?

    3 swap meet violations;

    1) Truck on drum (dumbness)
    2) Walmart chain license frames (no fashion sense). Bet the truck was pro built and the owner added the frames!
    3) socks with sandals (no fashion sense). Gold chainer.

    Men don't wear sandals. Flip Flops fine but sandals just look wrong on a guy. Especially with socks.
     
  9. It was probably under all that shit.
     
  10. Agreed! Especially those dirty looking Berckinstocks(sp)

    That's what happens when some tool pays for a finished car or to have one built. The builder does a great job onlt to watch the owner install $7.99, cheesy Walmart s#$t on it! Damn nice looking, minus the frames!
     
  12. there is a Segrave roadster fire truck down the street from me. it looks pretty decent and must run. also it has a for sale sign on it. I resist the urge to stop every time I pass it

    I suppose it coulda' been worse. At least he only used
    the stupid, goofy and ghetto-looking, 'chrome-chain-link"
    license plate frames and didn't get a matching and even
    more stupid, goofy and ghettoi-looking 'chrome-chain-link'
    steering wheel too!!! :eek::D

    I'd love to rock that Seagrave... The only issue would be if I brought it home, the wife would make me sleep in it ;)
     

  16. dirty berckinstock - immitations - too.
     


  17. I don't think that I would admit to knowing this guy, let alone being his offspring.
    Your admitting to sharing the same gene pool with a guy who wears socks with his immitation Berckinstock sandals. Nice.

    I know but realistically, inheriting wearing socks with sandals is far from the worst thing I have to worry about inheriting from him. :p

    So I guess you guys hate the frames huh? Well, aside from me, only one person has noticed the false bullet hole sticker on the dash. What the fuck? And as for mister "lets grind up the roads" what an asshole thing to do. Where I live, they keep having to replace roads and I can't help but think that some of it has got to be because of some jerk like this guy. Really, he couldn't pull over and change tires? I had to do it in pouring rain and smoldering heat. It looked kinda cool there. Dude is just a dick.

    I was there as well, the Seagrave was pretty cool, it got a lot of attention. Should have gone with the gold chain license plate rings.

    The guy in the socks and sandles probably installed the plates on the rig when the owner wasn't looking. The joke is on the Seagrave guy...

    First off, you need to show some respect. Talking to someone about their family like that is completely uncalled for.

    Secondly, I don't think I would admit to knowing enough about hippie sandals to be able to pick out an imitation.
     
  27. Okay, we have the spelling police, the traditional police, and now we have the fashion police on here. I am certain with all of the experts, the only reason we can't all be perfect, would have to be due to our own stupidity, or lake of compliance. Damn, I wish I was perfect.
