She's dating me we can infer that decision making isn't a part of her skill set
She had never owned anything other than Hondas until we met, she got a flat tire in front of my shop and quite frankly is super hot so I tossed her the key to my E90 (was my NAPA sales rep at the time) shortly thereafter we had our first date at a BMWCCA function.
She bought herself an LCI 328xi for her birthday last year and proceeded to tell people loudly that I've broken her the tattoo came shortly thereafter. Doesn't want to forget "where she comes from"

ooh i like it. I've always had this idea.
Not automotive, but definitely a hotrod.
It's a 4.5cm ruler in half centimeter increments. Ot was originally 6cm long, but the last 1.5cm faded away as it's tricky tattooing fingers. Comes in handy all the time.

I imagine finger skin doesn't stretch or sag much over time, this should work better than the yard stick across my belly

4.5cm = 45mm = 1.77 inches; what are you measuring?
(remember this is a family show)
Had this little baby done about 14 years ago by a bit of rusty LeMons race car when the sawzall let go. First and only time in my life I've ever gotten stitches (and took them out myself).
Mrs VCH has a picture of her 68 Camaro on her leg but she won't let me take a picture of it just now. I may have to wait until later when she's asleep...
How's this turbo diagram for y'all? Of course, it's not perfect, being 2D in a 3D world... Props to wikimedia for the inspiration.

A long time ago my buddy got the Cadilliac crest on his forearm. 2 years later they did away with it as an official logo. Good reminder of the impermenance of things.

I've got lots of tattoos but no automotive ones.
Does branding count? I still have a scar near my collarbone from a burning blob of grease that went down my shirt while welding on an old truck frame.
long story short about 14 years ago on a trip to the dragon I barrel rolled my car. The wheel, brake rotor, and bearing were pulled right out of the hub.
