he is

 

+1. I was chatting up a gentleman who has tricked out his 20 year old Trans Am. Not exactly my style, but he absolutely loved it and loved telling me all about it.

 

I'm also with uncle Fishbits, I sometimes look at crap cars and wonder why people went to the effort of tricking them up, and then I think of all the crap stuff I did to cars when I was a kid and I just smile. I once nailed an old rotary dial phone to the dash of a mark 2 cortina when the very first car phones were appearing and the real ******* would drive around with the the phone clapped to their head even when they had no one to talk to just to show they had a phone. I would pick up the Handset and clap it to my ear whenever I saw one. I also bolted silly useless spoilers to pieces of crap etc. but as Fishbits said I loved cars and everything about then, good bad and ugly.

 

and another to CO in August. anyone want to join me?

 

Wait, are you making that up? Did you really bolt a rotary phone to your car?? If so, that is awesome.

My grandpa was so frustrated when cars behind him would beep the second the light turned green, he had me mount a truckers horn facing backward under his rear bumper to blast back at them.

 

No I am not making it up, I really did it. literally nailed to the dash, rotary dial, curly cord and all.

Like this

 

My first cell phone mounted in the center console of my '84 Corvette didn't look much different than that except for the rotary dial.

 

As a person who has and uses a rotary at a work desk, because I love hanging up on people like the old days (just hanging up, promise).... THIS IS THE MOST WONDERFUL. Thank you.

Also... there's some guy in San Francisco that has an old Impala, and he rigged up a train horn to it. Throughout the night in Golden Gate Park, people in the Inner Sunset or Richmond were talking on Yelp about the ghost train of GGP, and what in the hell was going on. It took a year to figure out it was a car.

This car already attracts too much attention, let alone without Lamborghini doors. I love the auto rear hatch. Mirrors fold, door handles project and retract automatically. Headlights swivel, air vent auto raises. Exhaust cutout opens and closes. Too bad hood didn't go up automatically too. Not much left other than the doors.
