Default Sharpie-wielding tattoo artist turns Corvette into tribal sleeve

lol



Justin Hyde — If you've ever longed for a new Chevy Corvette semi-permanently tattooed stem-to-stern with Sharpies to resemble Fred Durst's forearms, your wish has been granted by someone in the greater Indianapolis area. I am Jake's mid-life crisis.

Caught by a Jalopnik reader on July 4th, the tribal-emblazoned 'Vette was chillin' outside a Value City furniture store. To those who think this pinstriping-gone-wild was permanent, the passer-by was so gobsmacked he had to walk up and touch it, and "It rubbed off a little." Did you do that on your last visit to the Louvre, heathen?

Who decided this kind of crap is cool? I (and everyone I knew) used to draw this **** on our folders when bored in high school 30+ years ago. It's called doodling.

Team America...**** yeah! Only in this wonderful country can you buy a car like that, have your credit debt bought by another company for less than you owe...(aka, **** everybody else over) and then sharpie your pristine c6 vette. Why? Because you can!
