I don't blame you BC, 'cos you know the next step is a hoodride stencil. Mind you, probably be the first of its kind as a uber track-weapon.  |

"patina" indeed No its not really, patina is the sheen, grime, wear and tear, build up of grime even, on anything old. We deal in old furniture and rustica (and any other old tat) and a good deep patina can really add to the look of something (in a good way) ;D Yeah rust is rust, but it can add to a good patina eh. |

... the only injury I sustained was a bumped head when I let the seatbelt of without realizing the car was upside down and that's not really the car's fault. |
