COTM - Chop of the Month - October 2008

COTM - Chop of the Month - October 2008

I thought just like last year I would make the theme:

Halloween

I hope we get alot of entries this time.
Thanks for the picture suicidoors.

I will let it run til the end of the month and get a poll up first thing in November or as soon as we get 30 entries.
30 is the max for a Poll.


Click here to get the fullsize Picture.

Good Luck!

Re: COTM - Chop of the Month - October 2008

Truck in downtown Sao Paulo, where it's still working long hours like it did 60+ years ago, when it was first introduced.

I just couldn't get any lazier... for the Halloween part, there's a black cat on the front seat (you can't see it... it's behind the door)

Wow, this is some good stuff so far. One question for XXL, why is the cat driving the opposite direction of the buses around him?

Re: COTM - Chop of the Month - October 2008

Okay. I guess I'll go ahead and throw mine in. I haven't changed anything on it in about a week so I might as well. I really liked it till I saw some of your guys' chops. Very nice.

I love the color layout on that last one. And the reaper in the smoke is a nice touch.
