…Just LOVE the ostrich upholstery
where is the passenger side door?
How long did it take to shoot all of those holes in the fabric?
i think its a gall wing door lol
Last! Is it me, but is the interior very unstylish, compared to the gear shift?
the upholstery has chickenpox
The interior looks like a giant band-aid
Sorry styrofoam gearshift, you’ve been upstaged!!!
Now THAT’S an automatic transmission.
Wouldn’t that be a semi automatic transmission?
Fail, every genuine homeboy knows a real gangsta holds the gun sideways.
I wonder if it’s rigged so you pull the trigger to release the shift lock? That would be opus.
Or is that a semi-automatic transmission? Or maybe forty-four-on-the-floor?
I actually want this.
Hey guys- love the sight. One small problem- your slogan should read ‘Epic kludges and JERRY rigs’. ‘Jury rigging’ is a slang for tampering with a jury during a legal proceeding. ‘Jerry rigging’ means fixing items in a substandard manner. It was a term used to describe the way Germans soldiers (called Jerrys) made do and repaired things with what ever materials were at hand due to supply and resource issues during the war. I’m not trying to be a grammar nazi (grammar jerry?), I just wanted to let you know. Thanks.
Well, isn’t that a great holder for your gun?
I’m guessing the shotgun they used to put the finishing touches on that interior is hanging in the back window.
Anyone with Ostrich interiors isn’t worried about getting pulled over.
@Jonas Šauktukas
Actually, it MATCHES the interior.
Taking perforated leather just a little too far.
Look at the steering wheel – where the airbag is. Ostrich. What looks like dots all over the picture is – ostrich skin. Now look at the grip of the weapon. Ostrich. Look at the logo on the steering wheel. I forget the name of this pimp brand of car, but it is a total custom build. For who, I don’t know, but this ain’t “fixed” the owner asked for it to be built that way.
Ride pimped by Colt
Makes you wonder what the hood release looks like?
too bad the buttons for the radio aren’t bullets
Dont shoot while driving
Apparently the owner of the car overheard all his friends talking about a pistol-grip shifter and wanted one of his own…
Ostrich leather on seats, dashboard, console, steering wheel AND GUN! FTW!
I like how the gun & interior match.
But I can see the driver putting it into park when the cop walks to his window, and the driver won’t have to worry about explaining anything. For he/she will be deceased.
Is the look of the upholstery from ostrich skin or shotgun pellets?
The interior of that car is INCREDIBLY ugly!
Wait, do they have butterfly doors on this car?
I heard his transmission was shot…
@chuck
Sorry to tell you, but you are wrong.

Thank you
@Denny J
Comment win!
@Starz
I saw that too!!! Dang I hope not. I think the car also has heated seats. Really.
Bwuahahahaha.
@Dono @ Denny J – completely agree! Comment win for sure.
“Well doctor, it’s hard to explain, it only happens when I’m driving. When I shift, I get a shooting pain.”
Oh that is straight pimp. In a way.
gansta
Dr. to Badgirl: “I’m not sure what triggers that…”
Dono, damn I wish I had thought of that too! You are GOOOOOD
Love the site, but I’m with Scooter. This car is not fixed.
Hey, I read about this guy. He tried to hold up a liquor store with a gear shifter.
‘cuse me, uuuhhh Chuck: “Jury rigging refers to makeshift repairs or temporary contrivances, made with only the tools and materials that happen to be on hand. Originally a nautical term, on sailing ships a jury rig is a replacement mast and yards improvised in case of damage or loss of the original mast.”
See, entertaining and educational
Best comment so far…
Love the ostrich handle on the gun.
This gives an entirely different meaning to “riding shotgun”.
@purdlemeow
And “Stick ‘em up!”
Not to mention “gunning it.”
@Scooter
and with suicide doors
@Mark
an m26 grenade
Dear tech support @ Smith n Wesson
i recently purchased a .45 acp and accidental got a car stuck in the barrel .
please send info on how to remove it .
thank you
@chuck
Can’t pass up the chance to correct a grammar nazi… but WRONG! Jury-rig is the original term, and predates “Jerry-rig” by almost 200 years…
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jury_rig
@chuck
First, “sight” is a sense (as in eyesight). This is a SITE (as in webSITE).
Second, like Badgirl said, jury rigging is indeed the correct term; look it up. Some moron probably misheard it and started saying “jerry-rigged” instead and it stuck.
http://www.answerbag.com/q_view/9245
@Badgirl
I’d never seen that usage- only ‘jerry rig’. I stand corrected.
This is awesome!
It looks like this guy even has Lambo style doors!
@chuck
Failblog is <<< that way. They’re waiting for you. Get filed under “aspegers-afflicted trolls”.
Also if we’re going to be pedantic, you can use either, really. Slang’s funny like that.
also, i like my car upholstery like I like my women…. COVERED IN SANDFLEAS!
@tahrey
Hmm, non-nested comments thread. How future-retro.
@Badgirl
I must say I don’t recognise what car it is… perhaps a compact Mitsubishi?
@tahrey – Couldn’t say for sure myself about the make but some one on here knows by how the console is configured. That part doesn’t look like it has been altered. Thoughts any one?
I think I just had an epileptic seizure from that car’s dot-laden interior.
think of them as tiny bullet holes from the gun/shifter
this guy is a shinola (from sinaloa) going arround in tijuana
thats totally done on purpose…not a “there i fixed it”…the gun handle matches the interior ‘dots’…and the car has lambo doors…u dont make a quick fix on a car like that….
This console is from a mercedes by its appearance, the style and location of the door lock and window controls, in addition to the shifter slot design
“Interior upholstery courtesy of The Braille Institute of America”
Always some moron at the lights, gunning his engine
Like i said at the previous photo “life in the ghetto ain’t easy”
Dont shoot while you drive or you change gear
Uh, you’re an idiot. Jerry-rigged is a term that dates back to WWII when the Allies were fighting the Germans, or “Jerry.” Jury-rigging is what crime bosses try to do when they go on trial.
@Lexx Like you said, it is a Mercedes…early to mid 90′s C-Class.
@tahrey
I’m pretty sure it’s a Jaguar. One of the X-Types..
It’s a late-90′s E-class Benz.
Actually, it is Jerry rigged, as in WWII Nazi soldiers, AKA “Jerry’s” or “Krauts”. You can rig a jury sure, but Jerry rigged implies shoddy makeshift engineering.
But yes, jury rigged is the original term.
haha i think thats the most ostrich ive seen, esp on an old body mercedes clk 430 with lambo doors. a shot in the dark, but i would bet the drive is not white and he probably needs that gun for protection.
dots-shmots, just say “thats my cigarette lighter!! ask the cop if he wants alight? you kids always try to over analyze these simple things
dwight suitter aka bsshooter be here till i die, won`t be long!!
must be some white kid thinkin he is hard cause he watched boyz in the hood for the first time
burried
I hope the driver isn’t going to rely on that Daisy Power Line 93 CO2 BB gun for any kind of protection, cause it won’t provide any.
Let’s cool it on the ignorant comments.
SUPER…
I LOVE KAR
I met this guy in Baton Rouge! his car is insane, its got a huge flat screen tv mounted on a telescoping pole behind the front seats and his hood is signed by the the new orleans saints.
Its still an automatic.
ha ha ha ha im not sure what was more funny, the picture or the comments : )
They’re not “dots,” or “holes.” It’s supposed to be ostrich leather. Real or faux, I just don’t know. LOL. *snorts*
@flichagainstthefire
jerry-rigged came from WWII and the traps the Germans(Gerries) used to leave on trails(i.e. Claymores and anti-personnel mines) so really it is correct too
Jury rigging dates to the 1700′s and refers to makeshift repairs or temporary contrivances, made with only the tools and materials that happen to be on hand. The term “jerry-rigged” was used by British troops in WW1 to refer to the German (Jerries) practice of making temporary repairs using whatever they could get their hands on.
wait, is the interior of this car covered in bandaids??
actually, this car belongs to a longtime methamphetamine addict who picked holes in everything in their immediate vicinity…can’t you tell? They did’nt show the cop that stopped them, because the cop’s skin looked like that too!
The interior has the worst case of razor bumps I’ve ever seen.
XD!!! Awesome~
“Let’s cool it on the ignorant comments.”
Thank you for saying it first, Paddy.
And Im guessing the trigger is used when the driver goes into reverse?
Let’s cool it also on the name calling. We can disagree without making personal attacks, can’t we? Now be nice or there will be no ice cream later.
THIS is the first thing you fix if you want to have a Mad-Max-style car!!
btw… Why do I think that the bullets won’t fit into the clip (cause they’re too big) ?!
is that ostrich upholstery? wtf?
Yeah, the console looks pretty similar in construction to the console of my dad’s 98 E-300 (Turbodiesel FTW!). If it is, what a hack job, my God. It’s almost a shame to do that to a Benz. And Ostrich leather? *i second the snort*.
is from tijuana this guy is in a car whit a anapromex stiker
No no no, ride-pimping does not equal jury-rigging. This is intentional. You’ll note that the grip of the gun is covered in the same tasteful ostrich-grain vinyl as everything else inside the car. Next we’ll be posting pictures of the wacky inventor who used spinny chrome things as substitutes for hubcaps and chrome straps to keep his trunk closed.
I think that’s the gun he killed the ostriches with for his interior. Somebody thinks he’s a baller.
Wow, someone likes to gun their engine
So Gangsta!!!!!!!!
No need for explaination; it’s camoflaged with the same grey speckly crap that’s everywhere else in the car. No copper would ever see it…
Boy, they sure don’t make cars of this caliber anymore!
The owner obviously is having problems with his ignition system – that’s a “starter” pistol.
Is this Plaxico Burress’ car?
ya it’s a 2000-2002 Mercedes CLK-class (post 98-99 model because of the touch shift thingy)..just sayin’ XD
@Neil
You actually expect Wikipedia to be accurate?
Well if they can build a jet around a 30mm Gatling Gun, they can certainty build a car around a .45 caliber handgun
Now that’s a cheap way to add a cylinder to your engine…
Yee-haw… I just went from a 4 to a 5 barrel engine!
“No, honey. I really don’t understand why I keep blowing out my transmission….”
So mister I see your trying to sell your car. “Yeppie, it’s gotsta steering wheel,a music doohickie, and most importantly an anti-theft system!”
now, you needn’t have a gun-shaped bulge in your jacket when trying to assassinate someone! You can say it’s an antique!
well you see officer, this is just the newest self protection program on the market. When someone tries to steal your car while your driving it, you can just shoot them.
Drive-by ready. (Also, I’m just amazed no one thought of this already.)
Duh… it’s OBVIOUSLY a Dodge Magnum…
Win
GUN it , man !
“DRIVER! Put the car in Park”
“DROP THE WEAPON”
“Put the car in Park!!”
“I SAID DROP THE WEAPON”
(Radio) “He’s not cooperating”
lol epic win
Really… a good one!!!

Douchecar.
do you have a better idea on how no to get knifed?
Sorry I am tardy to the party, but I couldn’t resist posting this clip which reminds me of this car:

More eagle anyone?
well officer, im practicing to hold myself from shooting idiot drivers who cut me all the time
Ahhh so this is the interior of Dirty Harry’s car! “Go ahead, shift my gear!”
