    My good buddy Dave Shuten painted this old trash can for me with House Of Kolor, Metalflake, Lace and pinstriping. Now everyone tells me it's too pretty to put trash in it!:cool:

    I think I would use a liner bag and avoid slushies.

    It would be traditional to put trash in it. Street rodders would put a cry baby doll next to it. Tuners would probably throw it in the trash. I would use it as a trash can.

    It is too pretty to put trash in. Put it in your man cave or build a man cave around it.

    Far too pretty but I am easy going. Want me to haul it off and use it for you?

    No. It's a trash can. It's a nice/kick-*** trash can at that, but if it gets scratched and stuff you can take it back to him to get it fixed or repainted and it'll keep a custom painter in business and possibly help keep this hobby/culture/career/what-have-you alive. Who knows? It may keep him in business long enough to teach the next best painter in the industry. Just a thought.

    Use it for what it is made for!

    Thanks for all the input. I brought it home and the niece and nephews love it because it's their size!;)
