Really?
I didn't hear about any thefts.
Who/what got ripped off?
Also, they were letting the public into that show, so who knows who was
wondering
around in there!
I agree with the "riff-raff" comment.
One of my pet peeves are cheap assed owners who drive shit boxes and do
not fix up thier cars. (you know who you are).
I would NEVER let my car be seen with ripped seats and cracked dash,
....when people see these cars in bad shape and forever remember how
junky they looked it makes us all look bad.
I will not take my car out unless it is clean and presentable.
I have replaced the seats, and any other thing that looked less than new
including all the switches and trim.
I wash KITT every single time I take him out - thank god for the "mr clean"
wash sprayer!
