Redneck Stuff: Barrel Bolt Your Car Doors (Photos)

Treasure Spotted in Okinawa Japan

 

This car parked next to me yesterday in the hills of Urasoe, Okinawa, Japan.

Within minutes, the owner and I were friends.


The lock, hanging off the driver's door caught my attention.

That's how I came to know Kinjo.

It's best to ask for permission to shoot someone's personal property with a camera.


It wouldn't be nice to call somebody you just met a redneck.

So, I just told Kinjo, I'd love some photos of this barrel bolt and lock for my blog.

He let me fire away.  You could tell he was really proud of his invention.

That's proof, to me, that great minds think alike.

It's a four door automobile.

Only one door has this contraption hanging off of it.




Once you lock that barrel bolt, nobody can get the driver's door open.

We really don't have car thieves around the hills of Okinawa.

So, I figure the lock on the driver's side is for some other reason than, keeping thieves out.

Like, maybe he doesn't want someone with his keys driving the car.

When you first meet someone, it isn't polite to ask a bunch of personal questions.

So, I didn't.

But, it got me wondering.

Do you suppose, maybe his wife has blonde-colored hair ?


Anyway, I took the time to research a little bit for you, in case you'd like to barrel bolt your buggy.


You could probably do this redneck stuff to all four of your car doors for under a hundred bucks !


Visit the Redneck Stuff Page any time you're looking for tools or parts for your car.


The Santa Gal will be leaving soon so, don't forget to stop by and see her.

Don't Just Go for a Ride. Get Out and Shoot Some Stuff !


Today a few friends and I piled in a car and got out of town.  It was looking like the sun might shine, finally, after what seems like weeks of clouds and rain.

Head north.  That was the only plan we had because there was a rumor going around, that's where the sun was going to shine, all day long.  Well, we weren't just going for a joy ride.  We wanted to shoot our cameras.  Shootin' out of a car window isn't much fun.  So, we stopped a lot and got off the beaten path.

Up in the northern areas of Okinawa there must be thousands of places the average citizen doesn't even know about.  Every time I go up there,  I find something I've never seen before.  And I shoot it.

Once in awhile the wind blows clouds in over our island.


That's when we hop back in the car and take the bridge to somebody else's island.


Because we didn't take the car along just to ride.  We wanted to go shoot some stuff.

And we did.
