Because he had a sense of humor.

No, in the original thread he said he was refused entry of his Honda into an All Ford Show. Thats why he went and changed all the badges wasn't it?
"I was told that I was not allowed to enter my car into an "All Ford" Car Show so I made this up," says Grenon.

i remember in Street Machine a while back, someone had built a 2 door EK and went to put it in a all chev show. He nearly got past the entry gates untill a die hard came over revealing the true identity of the car...

Typical BMW drivers... or maybe it's just a coincidence.


I wonder if Captain Obvious is a member here...


With a name like that they must get a lot of business.

Not only is the length of wood across his chest, but that's 2 meters hanging outside the window.

Try the 4 or 5 metres hanging out the other side where the oncoming traffic would be . A candidate for the darwin Awards if I ever I saw one .

It would be worth damaging your own car just to hit the timber across the drivers side. An idiot like that doesn't deserve oxygen.
