That would be like putting up a sign saying, "Come and scratch my van."
Funny old life.

when i was panelbeating we had this guy who brought the latest HSV (this is a few years ago now), and he had his car keyed 3 times (keyed, fixed, keyed, fixed, keyed, fixed) for reasons unknown but was probably jealously.
In the end he sold the car cause his insurance premiums went through the roof.

Also know of a hot rodder who's T-bucket had a bottle of brake fluid poured all over it.

to many scum in this world - they should have a open scum season
There are so many people out there who will tell you that you can't. What you've got to do is turn around and say "watch me"

haha Griff that's awesome, i might dedicate a spot inside the van for that ;)

In terms of the c***s scratching cars, it should be an offence punishable by death to damage another man/woman's vehicle.

As much as i'm not a fan of HSVs, it's disappointing to hear that people allow their jelousy to be destructive..

also had an es esk ess, an eskkk (one of them) show van which was keyed and a plymouth hotrod with murals (done by Devo) very similiar to those shown (just about every dirty old perv asked my wife if she modelled for them, and no she didn't as the ones in the mural were way perkier!) It too copped rocks one night on the freeway and the number of people who didn't respect others property or worse let their kids run riot! found one kid walking along the sideboards and up the guard while mum watched. NO SUBTLE  way to say f off when there is shitloads of $$$ worth of paintwork. you soon learn how far the umbilical cord stretches when in public(line of sight was the limit)
If you like it do it, If you like it a lot do it a lot!
