That's RURAL Virginia

The rest of us are reasonably civilized. I have to go now. I'm jacking up the back of my harvester and putting custom rims on it this afternoon . . .

I never understood why people do this to cars.

Monster truck shows, ok, but this?

Hey, at least the redneck has taste.

It could have been a Bronco.

i used to see a 74 pontiac wagon with the full monster truck treatment around here.

also have seen mustangs with it.

i even saw a rather delectible 55 chebby that had been shortened to fit a jeep cj chassis down south. kentucky or tennesee i believe it was. it was vette yellow and though i didnt see it up close it looked really sharp with excellent chrome etc.

although i personally dont get it, i just smile and think it kept someone off the streets doing something constructive.

i also saw first hand a local guy who made a wagon out of a bmw bavaria. he grafted on the back of a fairmount wagon. i think. it looked pretty sharp. but unfortunately he couldnt get the bmw motor to run right and dropped in an iron duke with its tranny. if he hadnt done that i might have wanted the wagon!

Lets say I married my sister. I already know her parents. One set of outlaws less to work around. No arguements of who we go visit this X'mas or Thanxgiving. Think of the advantages. Oooooh, one more. You don't have to wonder what she looks like under the clothes. You already know.

I love it!
Looks like a good hunting vehicle.
I would love to see it ride over top of some other piece of crap Benz's like the ones that park inside underpasses and block traffic during hail storms.
