I've seen blingmobiles that have looked better then this. I honestly think we may have a new contender for the worst Mercedes ever.

Don't care so long as it isn't another Mercedes

Think it can be saved?

Thankfully the engine is still original...with the exception of some of the worst wireing that I have ever seen anywhere.

Here's another WTF- they called it "Mercedes-Penz" and it has markers and pens glued all over it.

It's a BABE car!!!!! A little respect, please

Big Apple to Big Easy - buy a cheapo clunker (2008 limit was $250, upped it to $500 for 2009) and join a caravan of certifiable lunatics on a road trip from New York to New Orleans.

Jingle Benz was one of many decorated entrants. Last year, Darling Wife and I helped prep Barb & Louis' entrant.

I proudly present The Thunder Fox:

We haven't been able to make the run ourselves, but it is most definitely on the calendar for '10.

I'd give it a shot if it were a diesel. Although being a Christmas nut that I am...

Now that's interesting. There's a highschoolish/college aged girl in town that used to have her car (Geo Prism maybe?) painted with zebra stripes and a bunch of animals painted on it but it's been marine critter related for a year or so now. That might explain it!
