Default Vette as art...but you won't believe

I was standing by the 81 today when a local 'artist' walked up. He does large sculptures like Burning Man and buried Cadillacs...He asked me how much a car like mine would cost...he wanted to "chop it up" for a sculpture. I just walked away... :sad:

and the art they make is usually just rubbish.. overpaid and over subsidise junk .. at least, that's what it's like here. Here some guy was elected to make a new piece of art for the town center and he made a coffin w/ corpe that stuck out of the ground, meant to symbolize the resurrection of the town center or something. He actually got paid big $$$ for it :crazy: :crazy:
