That's just wild. If there had of been a motel in Hell back then, we would have stayed there for sure. Ended up in Albion for the night. The first sign we see in the morning out of town ... "Prison Area: Do Not Pick Up Hitchhikers" lol

Thanks for the pics!

the ones on it right now are 235s i got them for free from a buddy who works at a chrysler dealer, got them off of one of those cash for clunkers cars. i like em, they make the car look more aggressive (like an actual old cop car)... but i cant stand the rear stance of the car. the ass is to high, idk if it has a tow package or what but its so high. ill ge the name of the tires for you, and what they are.

Nothing planned for 2010 yet, but some good uses would be The Kalamazoo Blues Festival, The Woodward Dream Cruise, or any other big show we would get.

We wouldn't have to drive it, just park it near the stage for photo ops etc...

hey Zac

That Brighton thing in early Aug was probably me
It was for the Brighton Kiwanis and they used an old Ambulance (It was a fire engine the year before)

Yes I would like to use your car in the future, also if you know of other big events in your area you want to get your car in contact us, and we can sell both our acts as a package deal.

Was that you in brighton elwood soul? thats cool! everyone i knew kept telling me about it, but i went down to florida that week to visit a friend... i was very bumed i didnt get to take her up there. any big event you got in mind let me know. I havnt attended any music fest type things with her but i know shed be a hit.

hey ghost, thanks! tell me about it doesnt that ass stick up high? I CANT STAND IT!! lol idk if it has a tow package with extra leefs, or what, but its so damn high. i want to try to take a leef out or something, but the way my exhaust man has the pipe right now i cant, the rear hits the pipe on bumps with a lil wieght in the back. To me it doesnt look anything like the bluesmobile the way it sits, but you cant tell on the grass, i just have to deal with it right now lol.

I also distressed the "to serve and protect" a lil more. Might have went a little overboard on the passenger side but oh well, it deff looks old lol.
