BKcustoms Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 Very nice,but what does "Pinche Cabron" mean? Is it Latin? Well I know the Spanish meaning, but I'm definitely not saying it here.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jantrix Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 Well I know the Spanish meaning, but I'm definitely not saying it here.. Ditto, I'm really kinda wondering why you'd put that on a model John. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Teresi Posted December 17, 2012 Author Share Posted December 17, 2012 (edited) Very nice,but what does "Pinche Cabron" mean? Is it Latin? Austin........it is a slang bad word in spanish........the decal was from a Slixx contingency sheet for rat rods..........I should have looked up the meaning of the word before I put it on the doors........well, I re-moved the decal and the post anyway........sorry if I offended anyone.

Kmidd65 Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 John, you truly inspire with your builds! Those tailights were looking sinister before the mesh was added. The floor boards with the bolts are a really nice touch. So much to look at on your builds. Thanks for sharing the in-process pics with us!
