Spotted a couple of bugs out in 2 different pastures this past week or
so.
Look to me a 74 and the other is a late 66, maybe 67.  Pretty sad
shape from
what I can tell but I'll bet they are "show winners".

I'll have to track down the owners and find out the scoop, etc.

cool another thread about me..

My multi show winning, including Bug out 64 was a pasture car that was
said to be only good for parts.

Your right it is a shame, even if they can't be returned to the road
they could help many others do so.

Dumb a.s.  Where do you see your name mentioned in my post ?
I do have a bug that came from a pasture and has won shows.
And unlike you I can prove it with pictures and trophies.

Now prove everything you just said Mario.
Who owned the car when it was shown ?
Any pictures ?
Prove that you did the work on it and it wasn't changed any before the
show.
You can't as you are lying as usual.

My 64 was hit in the front hard enough that it broke the aluminum
front beam and all but the painting was done in my drive way.

It still looks great today and runs like a dream.

care to comment on how great your work is? Your silence probably says more
than you can, but give it a try.

> I had a great time at the Farmington show  hope all did.

guess you didn't "win" any second place shows or you'd be bragging by
now...<snicker>

Did better  didn't take any cars to show due to selling a bus. Its
tough to go from sailing thursday night to saturday then hit the show
on sunday. life is good

The welded patch is behind the bunper suport where you get no accsess
with a grinder, but why do I tell whiny little bitches that won't even
fix there own cars.  Come on chris you like to 2 " my work lets see
yours.  I bet you the type that bitch at quarterbacks on TV while you
sit on you Fat A$$ all day.

I'm still here having fun, I'm still going to shows and I sure that
not one of you whiny bitches are willing to bet that If I will have
more show winners.

He was probably being given a swirly by a "satisfied" customer.

Possibly he was sailing with another "satisfied" customer and got
lucky
when the anchor chain came lose from him while he was sinking to the
bottom of the sea.

Trey - 31 Oct 2009 19:32 GMT
You Dumb sh.t.  It has nothing to do with the fact that you can't grind it
down to make it look good.  It's the fact that it has no penetration at all.
Which adds more to your work ethic of hide it and scam people.

Maybe you would have been better off as a telemarketer or something like
that?

your posts make no sense... your ability to get your point across in a
written forum is about as good as your ability to weld.... defend your
welding all you want, but chicken sh.t and pieces of wire sticking through
are poor welding... not being able to get a grinder to it is only showing
that you are used to grinding away your crap so it looks "acceptable"
especially buried under filler... as far as seeing my "work" as i've said
before, I've yet to come here and brag on mine when pictures show how shitty
it really is... that is exactly what you do... crying "let me see yours"
doesn't take the spotlight off yours when that is what the subject is...
your refusal to talk about your work in the pictures, which is NO DOUBT the
best you can do, is very telling...

I've been trying to stay out of this fruitless tug-o-war, but I gotta
tell you... if it never STOPS, there IS no "last laugh". Claiming the
rights to it and then keeping the thing going is not getting the last
laugh. Would you all please stop the pissing contest. It stinks here
because of it. I declare NO WINNER so you all can just stfu.

You are a bad mechanic, and you are a boy, but I'm not sure that

HOLY sh.t MARIO!!!  I knew your reputation and all but I'd never seen
those photos before.  You charged someone actual money for that?!!!!
How much (talking about the first set of pics)?  That's the worst
cluster f**k I've ever seen in my life.  I've seen teenagers that worked
on their first car that did better work than that.  Hell, it looks like
you applied the bondo with some sort of hose sprayer.  Is that it?  Do
you have the world's only high pressure bondo sprayer?  Geeze, seriously
dude I've never seen a worst "restoration" in my life.

in excess of 9,000 dollars.... here is a video taken shortly after the car
was removed from his shop.... before the post mortem was performed.... this
is "as delivered" so to speak... only fenders were removed.. you can see it
oozing with "quality" for yourself!

he's been sued... he has judgements against him from two of our own here at
RAMVA... but you've heard the saying "can't get blood out of a turnip",
right?  as far as Joan, the "throwing good money after bad" saying pretty
much explained her feelings about it... spending a few grand on top of what
she spent on that expert restoration to get a piece of paper that will never
be worth anything due to Marihacks inability to own anything? not a wise
investment.

You gotta be kidding.  $9k for THAT?!!  Hell, 50lbs of bondo are going
to fall off the first time it hit a bump in the road.  Doesn't this
numbskull know that you can't put filler over rust?  The rust just keeps
on eating right under the filler.  Not to mention that one of those body
panels looked like it was attacked by a chimp with a ball peen hammer.
If you can't bump the metal flatter than that you should replace the
panel.  And just the shear quantity of filler.  It seriously looks like
the dude has some hose sprayer that sprays bondo by the gallon.  You can
see gobs and drips and runs of filler on the damp frame members in
places.  And what's with the bits of welding wire that he just left
hanging in places where his welder stuck.

Seriously, this just blows my mind.  I've seen some real hack jobs in my
life, but this one takes the cake.  Someone needs to confiscate his
bondo sprayer.

Maybe he uses a chopper gun:

Yeah, looks like he takes a chopper gun, a 50 gallon drum of bondo,
stands about 15 ft back, and just blasts away.

no, it's us that are becoming the expert at confusing the meth head tards of
the group... you've yet to tell us about your work in the pictures, yet you
get upset that *we* aren't showing ours... yours came up first, we'll
discuss that, THEN we can move on to ours... here is a refresher of the work
YOU put out of your so called "restoration shop".... kinda hard for me to

not even sanded smooth masterpieces are something to behold...

Yes even the yellow ghia was a pasture find. the PO couldn't even get
$200 for it it was is such bad shape  and the 66 was pulled from a
dissasembled moble home.  A basket case itself that had at one time
been cut lower mid window.
You have no clue what it takes to build these so that they do win at
show.  Both cars have awards to prove it  the yellow ghia has 3 and on
id from a big all around show.  LOL are they perfect "NO" but I've
seen where they are better then magazine cars.
I've asked for 2 years what are you tring to get out of this?  If you
are so much better come prove it or just STFU finally,

I'm going to continue to play with the cars and if you think whining
is going to get you anywhere, It doesn't matter If people don't show
the cars I will still enjoy doing it.
That just leaves you with being a whiny bitch with a primered car that
you don't work on...  engine built yet?   The black convertible was
held together with pop-rivits a spray foam, how many people are able
to fix that  you can't even fix an inside panel on your ghia.   whiny
bitch

Why do I get the last laugh  because I'll be playing with another VW
today. and tommorow.

try looking at the whole picture, you'll enjoy life more

I, and most, *will* "STFU" once you tell us what you see, as a self
proclaimed expert, in the pictures that are posted of Joan's car. You
claimed it to be show quality and also claimed all rust had been "cut out
and replaced with metal" as was charged for on the invoices, and stated
here... but you avoid that subject like the plague(as you did here) because
admitting to what is in the pictures also means admitting that you not only
did shitty work, but that you stole money from her and then lied about it
for a few years... You, and folks like you, will never do that, you don't
have the "balls" to me man enough to take responsibility for your actions.

> I'm going to continue to play with the cars and if you think whining
> is going to get you anywhere, It doesn't matter If people don't show
> the cars I will still enjoy doing it.

again, your definition of "biching" and "whining" are about as accurate as
your definition of "restoration"... you don't have a clue.

> That just leaves you with being a whiny bitch with a primered car that
> you don't work on...  engine built yet?

if I don't work on it, who does? My engine is on the stand, and it has an
engine in it, what is your obsession? maybe it's that you know that I have
access to a real bodyshop(frame equipment and a real downdraft, not a
storage building like yours) and the skills to make them "nice" if that's
what I wanted... the keywords there, since you have severely diminished
mental capacity, are "if that's what I wanted"... you can try to displace
the heat from you by claiming that those that don't have shiney turds like
you pump out don't know good work from bad, but as I've said before, I don't
own a dog, but wouldn't have to wonder what one is if it wanders into my
yard. Hell if I wanted the car to be painted and didn't want, or couldn't,
do it myself, I'd just pay a real bodyman to do it, it's that simple. So
simple even you should understand... or maybe that's what bothers you, that
I could drop as much coin as I wanted, at any time, to make it "nice" but
it'd never be you doing it, due to me knowing good work from bad... that's
probably it, right there...

> The black convertible was
> held together with pop-rivits a spray foam, how many people are able

> bitch

the black convertible isn't at question here, neither is my ghia, Joan's bug
is... lets take a minute and discuss that. do you need me to post the links
again, or can you remember that bondo'd up piece of sh.t you called "show
quality" work? as far as my ghia goes, you don't know what you are talking
about. what inside panel are you refering to? or are you just being a "whiny
bitch" again?

> Why do I get the last laugh  because I'll be playing with another VW
> today. and tommorow.

and despite your claims to the contrary, I can walk out and get into my vw's
and drive them anywhere I want, and not worry about chunks of mario, um I
mean bondo, falling out onto the road...

I enjoy life tremendously, thank you. One thing you are incapable of
understanding is I also enjoy watching a thief and liar dodge every chance
to back up what they say, or in your case admit you lied through your teeth.
It really is that fun to see you chase your tail like an inbred mutt... As
far as looking at the whole picture, that is all well and good, but a
"whole" is the sum of it's parts, and that is where you fail... 20 footers
are fine, as long as the hack doing them doesn't try to represent them as
"show quality restorations" as you do... lets, again, take a look at the
parts that make up the whole.

make a man a man.

I don't need to say anything I'm still enjoying playing withe the cars
everyday.  I enjoy walking around the shows and seeing all the
different ideas, but it seems finding stock gets harder. Its great to
have people that want me to do the stock restorations.  Hey Chris this
is how I get to play with things like the Zwitter.  And the VW powered
lawn mower is comming along great.

Someone get ahold of AJ and tell his his sisters old 67 is looking
good and I will have pictures up soon.

I'm still tring to make room for the 52 MG td and a few other
projects.  lol

is that the same AJ that you tried to steal his car and defraud his auto

No its just karma paying me back for him steeling money from me.

Chris I would tell you to come to Herbies on a thursday night and talk
to anyone that knows AJ, most will think hes in jail again, but you
don't want to know the truth. It seems your best way at attention.  I
thought it was your rule to ignore me?  how about I post only VW
related items and you and the rest of my stalker fan club do the
same.   There are real situations out there that could use that time
and energy, I do a clean up  amung otherthings   what is it you do?

Hey again its 50 post more about me then anything.
Hey Bug nut post your real name and a picture  I'll Go by the law and
send the police to deal with your threats , oh wait only real men
wouldn't hide behide a key board.

and yes I'm going to be playing with more VW's today  ...Its just to
much fun being me.

Heres another truth for you, and the very nice woman that owns the
grill can tell you, that my customers like and respect me that I'm
always haveing lunch bought for me.  I've never had to my lunch on a
friday.   And I have an 88 yr old man bring me home made bread once a
week.

Have a nice day

Some stole from you ?  I doubt thats the real story but if it did just
happen
to be true, good for them.

You sure aren't a real man.  Probably not any kind of man.

Better you are playing with them then working on them.
Or did you steal some little kids hot wheels to play with ?

Mario, a true business man buys clients and customers lunch not the
other
way around.  But you wouldn't know about such things.
Only ways you would get a meal bought for you is if you were the
dishwasher
or someone thought you were homeless and felt sorry for you.

88 year old man is probably your dad and grand dad or your suger
daddy.

f.ck you, bitch.  I never threatened you.  Reread my post, you sack of
sh.t.  I said I would love to see someone punch you in the face... and
I stand by this.  You DESERVE a severe a.s kicking, and you YOURSELF
claimed to have smuggled in a firearm at a show... do I really need to
dig up that little tid bit of info, fuckwad?  It's out there, but I
know you, you won't admit to it or address it, just like you refuse to
address the fact you stole nine grand plus from Joan.

My name is out there, all you gotta do is look for it, you lying
weasel of a cocksucker twit.
Joey Tribiani - 07 Nov 2009 03:13 GMT

pretty hard to steal money from you when he was working in your shop for no
pay, eh?

>Chris I would tell you to come to Herbies on a thursday night and talk

>don't want to know the truth.

this is where you are full of sh.t, as usual... *all* I am interested in is
the truth... but you refuse to even acknowledge anything even remotely
truthful.

>It seems your best way at attention.  I
>thought it was your rule to ignore me?

it's not uncommon for you to not remember who said what... Hell you can't
even keep what you said straight... like Joan's car being show quality
work... but we all know it isn't, but as you said, you are not interested in
the truth... too bad the pictures tell the truth when you aren't man enough
to do the same...

> how about I post only VW
>related items and you and the rest of my stalker fan club do the
>same.   There are real situations out there that could use that time

you are right, there are lots of situations that need attention.. mainly in
this vw hobby... letting folks know about the thieves such as you, is a
*good* thing...

>Hey again its 50 post more about me then anything.

yep, but only because we want to see how many times you can reply without
actually responding to the subject... Like what you, as a
professional(LOLOLOL) vw restorer, see in these links:

http://www.metwiz.com/joansbug3.htm

of course you will post 100's of more posts trying to avoid the above... but
you really don't need to own up to your pathetic attempt at bodywork, the
pictures don't lie, you do. FACT.

>Hey Bug nut post your real name and a picture  I'll Go by the law and

>wouldn't hide behide a key board.

You do that and I'll be pissed off... I'm still waiting for that letter from
that pansy lawyer you promised me... you know, the pansy lawyer with the
theiving, cocksucking wannabe bodyman for a client...

>and yes I'm going to be playing with more VW's today  ...Its just to
>much fun being me.

since your definitions of words like "restoration" and the like are so
skewed, it's hard to tell what you mean by "playing with"...  usually that
means stealing more parts, money, and the usual ration of bullshit on the
internet that you spew...

>Heres another truth for you, and the very nice woman that owns the

not sure what you think that means, I have customers and collegues (yes my
peers actually like me, don't you wish yours did? then again your "peers"
would be similar liars, theives, and crackheads?) that buy my lunch all the
time... no need to brag on it, I actually have the honest income to buy
theres too... seems your "customers" have a softspot for those that have
nothing. the only difference between you and those living in the local
mission is you have a computer that you either stole or used stolen money to
get...

>Have a nice day

always do, and an honest one too... I'd suggest you do that, but I don't
really want to waste *that* much of my breath.

I would make it a point to visit his shop and laugh in his face at the
shittiness of his work if I didn't have a gut instinct that he would
confront me with a 12 gauge, meth head style.  He knows there's plenty
out there that want to beat his a.s, and he admitted earlier to
packing a firearm into a show at which  he was too chicken sh.t to
exit his friend's vehicle. I've got reasons to visit the east coast, I
have a friend in Maryland I could visit... I could easily swing down
Mario's way and tell him what I think face to face, and verify in
person what a truly waste of flesh he is, but I don't particularly
relish the idea of being brutally murdered by a pint-sized shitfaced
twerp that's a career liar and shitbag con man.

he's not worth it, and he knows it, that's why he lets his fingets type
things that his mouth would never deliver in person.... I'll see marichode
at some point, and I'll have no problem telling him exactly what is in those
pictures I keep posting links to. He may try to act like he's not worried,

Anyone wondering what sort of character Mario has need only to look at
the video that someone posted earlier.

Look at the way he tries to weasel out in front of that reporter by
saying "my wife handles the billing".  Wow, what a stand up guy.

takes a real man to stand up for his wife... only takes being a bitch like
Mario to tell the reporter that his wife is the thief, not him... He'd
probably do the same thing if someone did confront him, get behind his wife
so the one that might have a chance can do the fighting.. the other one
would then turn and run... Mario, don't trip over your skirt or tampon
string.

Reckon it itches when Mario gets sand in his vagina?  Probably puts him
in an irritable mode.  Or maybe that's just PMS.

>cool another thread about me..

are you a vw in a pasture? (probably more likely a "pie"), if not, the
thread can't be about you, numbnuts...

yeah, that show winner... you told me face to face(about the only time you
are honest) that your 64 was only "daily driver" quality and that it had
never shown at bugout... fast forward a few years to you finding a plaque
then suddenly it "won" bugout.... you are a tool...

you don't need parts from old cars when polyester is so cheap...

I saw his awards picture and first thing that popped into my head is I
wonder who
is missing theirs.   I also noticed the picture of his 64 is from
quite a distance so
no details or workmanship are showing.

same pic he's been showing for years... but from folks that have been up
close and personal to the car, it is as Mario described to me, nothing more
than a daily driver quality car... nothing wrong with that, but to brag
about "show quality" then explain shitty work with "my customers just want
daily drivers" shows the he actually realizes that there's a difference...
of course the pics I posted links to don't show daily driver "quality" it
shows  lack of talent...

There is a '58 or so sunroof  Bug in the field next to Boondocks USA (Rt
35, Iowa). It has settled into the ground up to the hubcaps, and is
filled with dirt. All a guy has to do is carve out the dirt sticking
through the rust holes and it's a SHOW WINNING CAR! I wonder if it ain't
Mario's first restoration.

If I had started this thread and it was going to be about bondoboy, I
would have
said I found a pile sh.t in the pasture.
