Alan de Cadanet was also opening hoods and pawing cars as they came on stage. He clumsily fiddled with that Hemi Superbird's hood and finally got it opened. The other guy, Mike Joy (I think it's "Joy") also smeared his DNA on several cars. Maybe there's an agreement to allow the TV guys a bit of free-reign with the cars for the sake of the TV coverage.

Yes, Mike "Joy" it is, thanks!
I thought of an interesting skit for SNL, where you bring in a shiny musclecar (that's headed for a new paint job) and mimic the B-J auction announcers as they scratch, slobber, drip, spill and otherwise totally maim the paint job on the car.

They'd be totally oblivious to the damage they were inflicting and would continue to paw all over the thing as they described it in detail.

I would be hilarious to the thousands in our hobby, but to the Gen Pub it would probably be misunderstood.

Yeah, and get Keenan Ivory Wayans to play his homeless guy character from the old "In Living Color" TV show. You remember--he had raggedy clothes and carried a jar of his own urine with a 'pickle' floating in it:

"Saaaay man, that's a nice car! Lemme' check it out--OOPS!" (Sound of broken glass and a splash.) "Oh man, lookit the paint--the stuff in my jar's makin' it bubble up and come off!"
