Projects New skull shift knob. Dripping blood or no.

Decided I needed another skull shift knob. Turned a shaft to go through it and bolted it on this morning. I bought it on a trip to Mexico a couple of years ago. Trying to decide, dripping blood or not.

 

No!,,HRP

 

I'd sat Nah on the dripping blood myself Gary. It always struck me as kinda weird that a white bleached skull would have anything in it that would supply enough blood to drip... But then we know me to be way to ****ytical...

That always struck me the same way. Probably enough as it is.

As you can see my T isn't a Klone so I have some discretion.

 

I like it as is.

 

Not a fan of skull knobs, but no blood if you run one.

 

I vote no blood.

However I think it needs something. A red bandanna folded and tied in back, slightly covering the top of the eye sockets, biker-style, would IMO, be bad***ed. Take the focus off that ****on on the top.

A red paisley one for a doll would have a scaled-down pattern and IMO break up all that white, and tie it in to the paint. A little glue gun here and there would hold it in place.



Couple bucks online.

 

No from me also

 

Something like this mashed?

 

LOL. I'm a stickler for details so I'd probably cut it down and sew the edges, but yeah, that's the idea.

Of course you could be poking fun at me but that's okay, too.

I know I'm a nutcase so no harm done.

 

We already put enough blood into these cars, so no more is needed.

Don

 

Well we are even. I'm sure you were making a little fun of me with your sarcasm. If we can't poke a little fun at each other it would be a pretty dull thread.

 

I bet if you go over to the dark side of hot rodding (RR site) most would say add blood and spiderwebs! HRP

 

Hilarious. There was no sarcasm. I was totally serious.

But maybe it's better this way. We wouldn't want people to ignore your totally *****in' bucket and comment only on the outrageous vato shift knob now would we?

That's sarcasm

 

Spider webs. Never thought of that. Maybe another thread.

 

Spider webs are traditionally for windshields and grills....not on your knob!!!

 

No blood.

 

Now, you cant do all that and not have a skull on every carb top, it just wont look right............Oh and some Re-Bar work around the windscreen (That needs more spider webs too!)...........

Er............Nah, no blood.

Doc.

 

Funny thing is my wife says i got spider webs on my knob!

 

Hoping to hear from someone down under.

Now lets keep this in good taste. Yeah all T buckets are in good taste.

 

If your going to add spider webs too, you may as well add a fake stuffed rat somewhere to complete the look. If thats too much on the dark side perhaps a crybaby doll?

 

No on the blood (real or fake), spider webs, cob webs, "truck nutz" hanging off the back of the car, etc. Sometimes, less is more. My two bhat.

 

I second

 

Believe me I have dripped plenty of my blood on this car since I started the build in '79 and wiped some cob webs off in the spring. Less is more is my motto.

 

Of course it needs blood.
