How about a car that has trophies for shows that were before it was made?

This is correct. BAD TEMPER is the winningest show car of all time. Lots of people like to hate, but the trophies speak for it. Yeah Air Vin Von Stok lll and the Editor of AIRMIGHTY were here in the Colonies to wrap up the photo session and legal work so it can be featured in the magazine.

Get this, they took out a wanted ad for a very Euro looking Dutch model for the photo session. Thousands responded to the adv, and the kid in this picture with Air Vin and the Editor, is the chosen one! OKAY. Word has it that in the next issue for print, the front cover was going to feature WWll vehicles. But when AIR VIN came across BAD TEMPER, he called his editor to immediately to get out to the Colonies to sort this one out and rather having these WWll rides on the cover ................... BAD TEMPER!! Shit, they know what this ride is all about. They have driven it. OKAY.

On the legality issue, which you are working on. THE HOLY GRAIL GARAGE is pimping BAD TEMPER, turns out that both Jerry Seinfeld and Jay Leno want it. Either bidder will take it home. But the down side to this, they may NOT allow the BAD TEMPER photo session in the AIRMIGHTY magazine!? OKAY!

Hopefully this all sorts out for the best and for BAD TEMPER to be featured in AIRMIGHTY. Why you may ask?? Well, since this is a European magazine, they are more lenient with certain things. With this said, the cheerleaders of REAL MADRID are all posing in & out and around BAD TEMPER ............. but TOPLESS and all wearing BOOTY SHORTS!!! So keep your fingers crossed.

Our club has talked about using old trophies as bowling pins and having a bowling night in some parking lot.

Mine are somewhere in a closet, I think.
