Sweet Jesus, is this a thing now? I took these pictures in Waco, Texas a few months ago and the similarities are striking. At least the ratty Chevy is more honest about its white trash heritage? IDK...

Do not seek death.
Death will find you.
But seek the road
which makes death a fulfillment.
Saw these two beauties this week.

First up is someone who decided to order everything in the catalog for his new jeep.



It was truly a garage queen extraordinaire.

Second up for your enjoyment is this little gem. Now you might be thinking, "hey some kind of super sports car" but NOPE!. It's a fricken Ford Mustang, 4th gen, probably around a 2002-2004. It turned before I could get a side shot. The roof was chopped, windows were about 6-8 inches high and a ton of Pepboys specials added onto it.

That mustang cannot be legal with so much of the taillights covered up can it? And those x-tra large blind spots...

Terrible bike stuff:

Ireland has always had some poor judgement. Like the time he said he had to go home from the national team because his grandma died. When she was found to be alive, he said it was the other grandma...who also was found to be alive.

I thought most rally cars had to be street legal so they could get from stage to stage.

I have been pulled over for this no less than 3 times in my younger years. Each time it served as a way for the cops to check and see if I was drinking. After they were satisfied I was not drunk they gave me a warning and let me go.

Did a bank repossess it and not bother to sell the cars? It's not like you couldn't have found a buyer for everything in a week if you were just liquidating.
