I wish I could find a copy of the article I read in the mid-Eighties about a guy and his monster truck.

Even without the good car as reference, the faulty work stands out in my eyes like a sore thumb!

“It was originally pea green and we completely disassembled it and painted it panel by panel. It is a 1969 Pontiac Grand Prix blue.” My immediate thought: “Oh, why?!?” And… :wtf:

If only some of us would be/would have been so lucky to find this kind of bonus when house hunting!
