Gone.

« on: February 02, 2012, 09:07:08 PM »








Someone needs this! ;D  I need to sell this or recycle it. first $50.00 gets it, i'll even help load it up for you (you must have at least a truck).
The door,trunk and engine lid are welded.  The center caps are welded to the wheels, but the wheels are just setting under the fenders.  I had to weld everything up due to the vast number of idiots messing with it week after week... It would make for cool garage art but its a little too big for me to keep.

I think this would make a killer backdrop on our Bug-A-Paluza stage!  Are you opened Saturday?

Our post keep crossing . . . I thought about getting it earlier, but I don't really have a place for it . . . then I thought, if no one else wants it and it's gonn'a get scrapped, heck, I'll buy it and put it up on the stage as a backdrop.  The main thing is I didn't want to see it scrapped.

It's yours.  It will be here at the shop, bring some leather gloves, the cut is sharp and the thing is heavier than it looks!  Looking forward to seeing it a BAP, I wish I had a spot for it at the house, but there is just too much there as it is. :P

Anyway, thought it was a cool photo!

That's pretty cool! Around here that would require a expensive sign permit and a heavy duty mount system. Those reasons are why it sits on the ground on the side of the shop with no shop logo.  It's still here by the way.... ;D
