That bug was featured in either "Speed and Sound" or "Vdub" magazine a while ago.
Go thru the back issues of at least 18 months ago if you can

That car does'nt look local. (Missed the previous post) :oops:

I agree with Muds. Do not touch means - KEEP YOUR 4KING KID'S GRUBBY HANDS AND FEET OFF MY CAR.

If you've ever had a car on show, you'll know what we mean.

Tom Bishop will tell you that 80% of the people that walked past his Kubel (Thing) at one of the last shows kept knocking it with there knuckles to find out if it was metal or Fibreglass.

Its not on, so - DO NOT TOUCH.

I agree....when I did the show in Cape Town with Mo, I had people turning the mirrors, opening the doors, sitting behind the wheel, etc :shock: .....I actually don't mind if people have a look and ask if they can but just helping yourself is OUT OF ORDER! :twisted:

Ok, I can understand the kids thing... :oops:

Only problem is that kids cant read... I think the root of the problem is that kids are not properly supervised/kept in check these days. And there is also a general lack of concern for other people's property....
