Nice one Bob:). It reminds me of a well known demolition derby driver from Long Island who called himself Long John Silver...one of his trademarks was to have legs, arms or whole bodies coming out of or strapped to his cars.

No picture, but a good related story. When we moved here from NJ we drove out in separate cars/Uhaul & had walkie-talkies to communicate (neither of us had cellphones then). Somewhere in Ohio or Indiana I passed a truck (18 wheeler - not pick up) that had a rubber chicken hanging out of the driver's door. I radioed my husband to tell him & suddenly this gravelly voice cut in and said, "He was tryin' to get to the other side!" It was the truck driver. We were completely cracking up.

:lol: Chicken....Good one. :lol:

Used to work by Sapp Bros. Truck Stop. That is were this leg idea came from.

Safety: Also I was thinking today. Make sure you do a pull test if you put a leg out the back. If not in very well and it fell out could be disasterous for a Motorcycle following behind you. I see lots of bikes on the road in Gretna.

I think that maybee I will have to try my hand at a custom Photoshop Demo E car. One that Long John Silver would be proud of. I love Demo Derbys. I have painted all of my friends Demo cars years back.

The coolest Demo car we painted was a huge Impala painted white with "Beer" painted on it. This was in the early 80s....

Love Halloween! Been dressing up for as long as I can remember. I go out with my little guy (he's six now) and we try to dress up as a team. When he was about 18 months old I dressed him up as the baby from The Addams Family and I went as Gomez. I put a little mustache on him and parted his hair down the middle. Everyone knew who he was the minute they saw him. Gotta admit, he looked great. This year he wants to do a Star Wars theme (Guess, I'll have to be Darth Vader).

Awesome pic man!!!! Too funny....reminds me of the opening credits of the movie Hollywood Knights...although I know it was an arm that was hanging out of the back in the movie...it still reminded me of it somewhat :grin: Love the custom emblem too!

So that's where my "other " leg went! We love Halloween at our house. My wife goes crazy decorating (tastefully, I might add). We got the sounds and sights and even the smells of the season. I always take that day off from work so I can "get dressed" and go out with my son. He loves when "Daddy" goes trick-or-treating with him. I love dressing up, especially in some sort of "scary" costume. Have fun - now I have to go put my leg in the car......
