Winter Park, Florida
He’s waited long enough. Justin Mimbs offered this jewel a while back and it’s time his efforts are acknowledged. A routine photographic exploration just outside Orlando yielded a historic find. This is the first Body Dumper submission on behalf of the alligator state. The BD jigsaw puzzle is slowly being put together. We will build the southeastern seaboard slowly but with great conviction. Danny might be Florida’s greatest export, but Justin Mimbs is solely responsible for documenting its foul play potential.
This one appears to be a late 1980’s model. The streets were not flooded with textbook, smooshed era corpse cruisers in the late 80’s. But this era still manifested more than just passable BDs. Justin’s photo journalism clearly indicates that. However, we can see this is an aesthetic rebirth for the BD. Not since the mid 1960’s was the Dumper being designed with such square lines. As much as we love the early 70’s archetypes, these 80’s whips are not exactly small change to the Foul Play Enthusiast (FPE).
The faded paint is a subtle suggestion of automotive neglect. I get the feeling there are Newport cartons on the passenger seat. Perhaps this Dumper makes routine trips to Publix for low qaulity cat food and Wonder bread. A bad attitude is most desirable when driving this one. Aggressive acceleration, hard braking, and impatient honking offer the world a side profile of generalized misery. But most of all we see those tires. The tires are beyond textbook. It’s the most fool proof indicator that we are in the midst of a BD. You can see the swirling depths of hell in those tires. A portal to the darkest corners of foul play. Florida’s first is more than worthy of being acknowledged. The beauty is there will be so many more to come. Stay hard and God bless.
