Low-tide muddy find! What is it?

Discussion in 'The Hokey Ass Message Board' started by ConceptVehicleDesign, Feb 2, 2010.

  1. Once you've built something "killer out of it, you can honestly say that you were really 'diggin' this car even before you brought it home.... I mean REALLY diggin' it!!!:D

  2. With such strong ties to the water... buried under it, using it to free it from the muck, and using it to float it across the river... you just gotta graft some embossed Evinrude letters into the valve covers or something.

    Hilarious thread!
