Not sure of the correlation between construction site safety and a (butt ugly) Vette.

Prolly ugly, but hard to tell from the extreme close up shots. If the photographer wanted to zoom in even more, he'd need an electron microscope.

Obviously they didn't have your impeccable taste in mind when they designed the car

A weak attempt at being pithy.

Apparently we aren't alone in our assessment.

Saying "Not a fan" is not the same as calling something "butt ugly"

qnitro was able to express his opinion with some class

A nice hardhat or a traffic cone on the passenger seat would have sufficed.

I don't like this "customization" nor do I like most of his bikes.

I didn't say "butt ugly" I said "F**k Ugly," as in the only thing that would make that Vette look better is a giant paper bag.

So you're the self appointed "class" evaluator?! Get over yourself.

Article says "818" and car has "811" on it, damn it, now Paul Jr. has to re-wrap that whole car....

Folks,

The idea behind the car is similar to the one used for the 811 Bike. 811 is the "One Call" for utility locates (in many areas), before you dig. Undergound Locates, or finding buried lines and pipes, is not only serious business, it's an obligation for contractors and homeowners, before they dig on property. It's to get attention, which clearly, based on this thread, it has.
