With a little help from my friends

We have this thing here, when you find a lost hub cap you prop it up against a fence, pole or something in the hope that the owner will see it and get it back. Do you have that where you live?


Anyway, I recently bought a new car (not new, you understand) it came with the worst, nastiest hubcaps you ever saw. I spent the first week joking to everyone that they would have to pay big time to get them off me.



Eventually I had the time to take them off and repaint the wheels a decent silver like uncle Toyota intended. (Mission brown just did not look good)
On our recent camping trip, with the help of a few many beers, my son-in-law and I came up with the perfect way to get rid of them…



I took them for a drive and simply leaned them up against posts, fences and bushes as if they were lost ones. Some poor sad weird madman will eventually pick them up and ruin his otherwise tasteful car with these nasty imports. I’ll keep an eye out for them….I bet they turn up on a Volvo!
