Adding a few extra parts to a carefully torn down and laid out assembly.

always a hit

Drop a 1/2" nut in the tube joining front & rear hoops on the roll cage above the drivers head, then weld it all up. Up hills it rolls to the back, down hills to the front.

It's all fun and games 'till someone gets hurt . . . . . . . . . . , then it's just plain funny!

I knew a guy who drank a lot, so he also puked a lot. He would hurl into those big freezer bags, then lay it out flat in the freezer. When he saw an opportunity, he would go to the freezer for the now frozen disc of vomit. The vomit would be a thin sheet, thin enough to slide under a locked door, or through a car window, you get the idea.

I saw him do it to someone surfing at a spot controlled by the locals. The guy left his windows down about 1/2", the frozen puck of puke fit right through. As the sun thaws the puke, the vile stench returns.

The amazing part is watching someone try to figure out how someone got into their locked car to lose their lunch...

If you like someone, and want to play games without ruining their car, try putting a couple of rocks/nut/bolt/etc. in their hubcap. Sounds like the car is going to fall apart. I used to work for a company with a fleet of Ford vans with the big dog dish hubcaps, put a lug nut in one of those babies and it sounds like you're dragging a 55 gallon drum behind you.

Every shop I have worked for or my own personal shop I have ALWAYS had a 50 cent piece glued to the floor outside my office just to watch people try to pick it up some of them go down give it a try and realize it's stuck and give up and the real cheep bastards will get out the Leatherman and get on their knees to dig this sucker off the floor. This works well when Interviewing new people when hiring.

It's even better the second or third time the same person comes back and falls for it again!

a guy i work with is a hunter, and hid one of those elk urine pucks in a co workers truck.

and my personal favorite...
for the guy that doesn't run an auto shade helmet...
when he is gone take out the front clear protective lense, and paint it black. If they haven't had it before it's awesome watching them try, and weld.
