does the paint job make the car?

Published Aug. 25, 2008

My buddy Mark Crain painted these realistic flames on a 1986 Trans Am.  Looks like a true firebird now, eh?  The man who owns the car is trying to sell it now... I have it listed on WRAL classifieds and craigslist.

The question is: would you buy a car because it has a cool paint job?

I think the paint job's very cool! If I liked Trans Am's I'd buy it. I'd probably add some things to the scheme though....maybe something like a gate's enterance on front...Gates of Hell.......some lil' devils on it, etc.. Why not have fun with it!!! Sarah Ü

looks rediculous, I offer $1.00 since it will need to be repainted completely so it doesn't look like something an illegal would drive

EdTeach, I definitely think it will stand out to LEOs...it's a ticket waiting to happen. And RickJames, I am gonna call JoeDirt and see if he is lookin a car!

Id like to have it just to be that one rebel in the trailer park now as Wings McGee

Joe Dirt would prob. love this thing. As long as they swapped motors and put a Hemi in it!

Was that really necessary Pike?

She asked,I delivered.Problem with truth do ya?

Pike was just helping to determine the market... thanks!

Was that really necessary Pike?

No.

The question reduces me to paraphrasing that old Frosted Mini-wheats commercial:

The Redneck in me admires the passion and craftsmanship that went into creating something that completely badazz.

But the Grownup in me wants the cops looking at someone ELSE'S car.

Good luck, boss.
