Thought I'd seen everything...

[scirocco-al at insight.rr.com (scirocco-al)]

Yes,
    I think I've seen something that will add to this conversation.  I've
seen a mid 80's civic 4 door driving around Columbus with numbers and decals
on the side and a 2ft' tall fake dock owl bolted to the hood as an ornament.
Right on the front too.  One of the oddest things I've ever seen.

I've seen a few Dodge K cars running around with the twin racing stripes
(ala Neon R/T and Ram SST), but best for stripes I've seen was a
Dodge(another Dodge!) Dynasty
with the twin racing stripes, but they were contact paper, and the
color....Woodgrain!  never had seen anything as funny at the time.
