I thought that a person would die from overdose before they smoked enough crack to do something like that! Gotta get me one of those custom hooker fuzz dashes.

Re: a classic truck gone wrong.
I usually like a truck that sits a little higher, there is a lot of good custom work on that truck, but wow extreme is an understatement! That could be a kewl ride, if it was finished and you got rid of all the troll dolls in the interior! Another comment, all that work, and you leave the motor looking like that?

To each their own, but to me that is beyond, well the negative word I want to use escapes me at the moment.

I feel sorry for that truck.

Re: a classic truck gone wrong.
Anyone recall those carpet rakes that were used to fluff up shag carpets? Don't know if that would work on smurf fur, though...
