Default My 69 is permanety attached to me! I got it Tattooed!

:eek:

I got my car tattooed on my shoulder blade yesterday! Now I'll always have it with me! It's still a little swolen, and it should clear it self up over the next couple of days but heres a pic of it. You can see that its still red (yeah thats blood) in some of the yellow areas, and the grey shading on the bottom half of the car should fade a little bit, as well as some of the other detials should clear up a little over the next few weeks.

I like it! What do you think? :cheers: :cool:

That's so cool. If I can ever figure out what I want on me forever I'll get a tattoo. My little sister got one and if she can stand it then I shouldn't have a problem.

Thanks guys.

I might go back at a later date to have it cleaned up and/or enhanced with the crossed flags or some smoke. Not sure yet. I'm going to wait a while and see how I like it first!!

It really didnt hurt all that much. It was more of an annoying pinch type of feeling than pain. Although two of the other guys who went didnt really agree. One almost passed out (ZO6Bliss) and one passed completly out (Chris NJ C5). It was pretty cool overall. I can see how people find tatoos addicting!

:cool:

That looks swell, Mike! :) Better you than me!!!
I can't quite tell from the pic: Did he leave off the sidepipes????
If you were a real man you would have put it on the other side (front - directly under your right nipple!! ). Can you see it without using 2 mirrors?? MJ

The sidepipes and the L-88 hood are there!

I was going to get it put on my chest, but I thought I might not want to look at it all the time. I can see it easily by turning my head, and looking in the mirror. (I can only see a little bit of it by looking over my shoulder)

:p:

You da man Mike. I suspected Bliss to pass out but Chris. You got more stones than me. I guess this means you are keeping the car.

"I guess this means you are keeping the car. "
LOL!!! What happens if you get a motion stripe? Do you and your car each have to go to the body shop?
It looks great! Where did you get it done? Looks like main line tatoo?

Hi Mike,
The tattoo looks great. I have the cross-flags tattooed on my right shoulder blade. I wouldn't say getting the tattoo was painful. I'll do it again when I decide what to get next and it will also be something to do with Corvettes. Any suggestions?

:lol: I'm definitely not winning any beauty pagents - tattoo or not!!! :cool:

Yeah I think I'll keep the car for a while and this means I cant really change the color- but hey if I decide to sell it, I'll always have something to remember it by!

As far as ideas for others go.... I have no Idea!!! Do your car - that is if you want to remember it forever! :eek: :lol:
