Default Stuff you hate to see at Car shows

This topic is rather taboo, but we all hate to see certain things at shows. Here’s a few,

Historical Lic plates on kit cars
Plastic wire loom coveres that match something on the car
Signed parts
Stuffed animals
Jap cars with samari swords, or ninja crap.
AC all removed, except on the firewall.

What’s one that just makes you shake your head

Those weird little kid dolls that face the car with their heads down or whatever. What started that weirdness? Those are just strange to me.

How about 1969 Z28's with the grill Z28 badge mounted in the wrong position I say about 60% are that way.


The last 2 I believe are correct, RS and standard are in the same spot.

A doll on a cooler. Double.

One show, I can’t find the pic, a Ricer had a Ninja sword and a old WW2 jap Flag in his car. I was hoping a Vet would come by and kick the guy in the balls.

Models on the Aircleaner, I saw a guy slam his hood on a model of his car on a small turntable, flattened it rite out
