I have spotted the INC plasti-dip TT. It looks half done, part here part there. Saturday around 1:30, spotted a Orange Viper with carbon fiber rims and a Saleen S7 getting on the highway at Transit in Depew. ---

To the guy driving the e46 M3 Vert on the 33 at about 5pm, your car is pretty sweet and all but passing me (going 70mph) like I wasn’t even moving and bopping and weaving in and out of traffic is just not cool. ---

Spotted what looks to be a burgandy 70ish Corvette stingray with a first gen vette front end. I think that’s what it is, only seen from a distance. I’ve seen it twice now in Tonawanda (Lincoln park area) anyone know what it is and care to elaborate? I hate 70s vettes but find this car intriguing. ---

> [@camarojoe](#): > > 2 completely different style cars. That’s got to look terrible. Hope to see it in person and how bad it is I was hoping you would see my post and respond knowing what the car is haha, since you know a lot of the muscle car enthusiasts around, from reading your posts. But like I said…I THINK that’s what it is, but was hard to tell with the distance between us. I’m also hoping someone else, or I get to see it up close to figure out what it actually is. Looked to be an older gentleman driving it. I spotted him pulling out of a driveway around Wellington, edgewood, Midland, area in Tonawanda, can’t recall exact street. Then saw him again a few days later on Sheridan/Eggert heading towards Amherst. ---

Ha, no. I figured they were taking someone to the holding center. It just made me do a double take when I saw how close they were following you. ---

It was earlier in the day. Maybe, 11:30. It was definitely you. Delaware near Merge. I think it was just a coincidence. My girlfriend said “Oh, that’s a nice car” as you drove by. I looked and said “That’s Onyx…and that is a Tonawanda Cop. I bet it’s nothing.” ---

> [@Mankthetank19](#): > > Yesterday on Sheridan I saw a white audi coupe with plasti-dip hood, trunk, and side skirts, which was driven buy a young Asian kid. Plasti-dipping multiple car parts does not look good kid! It does go pretty well though, considering the minor mods we’ve done so far.
