Don't have one but the late 60's early 70's crossed flags would be cool.

Maybe get the word CORVETTE across your lower back, and four big red dots, two per cheek, as the tail lights. anyone want to photochop that one?

Now there's a visual I don't want to picture. Almost as bad as getting an "M" on each cheek. Two tattoos in one. One way it spells "MoM, bend over and you have "WoW".

You don't want to know where the front nose flag emblem tattoo would have to go...

I have the crossed flags and my daughters names in-between on top and bottom.[IMG][/IMG]It was cheap because he messed up on my oldest daughters birth year. It looks alot better than this crappy picture.

It looks like it's supposed to be 1983.

It's closer to 1883 when you see it, but it is actually 1993. Lucky me. She just became a teenager.

Yea she gets pissed every time you tell her to do something. But then she expects to get everything she sees. I got her a 69 camaro to start working on so she wants alot of car stuff so thats cool. I don't mind buying car stuff. I hope to finish it a year before she can drive it so I can enjoy it first.

I don't have a tattoo but if I were to get one it sure would NOT be on my back(You can't see it)the only people that can see it don't give a d##m about it.So you end up paying a lot of money for something you can't enjoy.Something nice on the bicept maybe.I'll have to give it some thought.

Give it a lot of thought..........!!!

That big, huge, cool looking snake that wraps around your bicept today, will be a shriveled up little worm when your 70 & your skin is'nt as tight.....

I didn't get mine untill last year. I waited 39 years to get one. I didn't want some big gaughty looking crap. I just wanted something small and something that I loved. That's my girls and Corvettes. It is only about 4 inches long and up on my left shoulder. Both of my girls live with their mother so this is a way I can take them with me everywhere I go.

Thats

I'm not a fan of tattoos; didn't like them when I was in the Corps and don't like them now that I'm in corporate America but a comment like the one above makes me understand!

I got drunk and went to several tattoo shops during my 20 years in the Corps but turns out I was never drunk enough to sit in the chair
