I saw a pickup the other day that had just about every single NASCAR sticker of every driver that drove a Ford, since the pickup owner was driving a Ford. Also, to sort of frame the back window, there were four different Calvin pissing on something stickers in each corner. Then the guy had ‘detailed’ the truck with chrome tape, parts of the truck were outlined with the chrome tape to give it an ‘expensive’ look. I think there were actually fake ‘louvers’ outlined on the front fenders with the tape. Louvers make autos go fast.
My brother lives in the area. We were on a “tour” of the local hot spots - my first picture was blurry, and as I was refocusing the camera, he said “You might want to hurry that along, sister”
I believe I’ve seen that truck, CynicalGabe, but my favorite would have to be the lifted, four wheel drive-converted El Camino I used to see in Shasta County (CA) about fifteen years ago. Now THAT was a redneck-mobile.
There was a company here in San Jose called Bull Shift that would install 4x4 suspensions on various vehicles. I know I saw a 4x4 Camaro, but I think they also did a Pinto once too.
I used to hang out with the rednecks in high school. Two in particular had super-hickified vehicles.
One had a Jeep Wrangler with the biggest tires I swear I’d ever seen. You practically had to have someone help you into the damn thing. You know that “Rhino Lining” sprayed on liner for truck beds? Yeah, the whole body of the jeep was Rhino Lined. Bright green, I might add. I guess it made it easier to wash when he went mudding.
Then there was the “Cowboy Cadillac”. I can’t describe it, so here is a picture. Probably the coolest truck in existance and when he made it backfire, flames shot out of the pipes. Sweet. Also I can’t draw for crap. Across the front windshield it said COWBOY CADILLAC. The damn thing was ALWAYS covered in mud. And the back wheel wasn’t twice as large as the front wheel. I just can’t draw.
Two guys in high school had a primer spotched Mustang II, ostensibly yellow, with stock rims in front and cool-guy rims in the back, lots of racing stickers, and a Confederate flag in the window.
Another guy had a pimpin’ (and I say that with much sarcasm) Ford Festiva. Yes, a Festiva. It looked like a blue clown car.
