They had started to call him “Chrome Dome,” but it wasn’t merely because he was a middle aged balding man with a little bit of extra fluff around his middle. No, he had an addiction to chrome truck accessories that was frankly, a little disturbing.
While everyone agreed that Putco Chrome Door Handle Covers and Chrome Mirror Covers were very sharp when added to any truck, people were astonished when he added the Putco Liquid Spider Web Billet Grille. He was such a soft spoken person and his wife was afraid of arachnids. She had from that day refused to get into the truck. Later on the townsfolk would say that was his plan
all along.
Slowly, but steadily the chrome accessories kept appearing; Putco Chrome Tail Light Covers followed by Putco Chrome Pillar Post Trim. Shortly thereafter he wowed everyone with Putco Chrome Hood Accessories.
He was modest, only shaking his head and smiling when people would compliment him on his upgrades. He never bragged and when asked to pose for pictures in front of his pride and joy, he would politely refuse.
It was during one of these particular instances when they noticed something quite strange. You see, he had taken to wearing gloves all the time, even during the summer. When questioned he merely said he liked the feel of leather while driving. But when he refused to take his jacket off for dinner and of all things, started wearing an ASCOT! *gasp* Suspicions grew to an all time high.
The townspeople gathered together with pitchforks and rakes and made their way to his home, chanting, “Take it off, take it off.” It was very embarrassing and ridiculous for all involved.
Calmly he stepped out onto his porch and removed his hat, ski mask and shirt to reveal his skin was shimmering chrome.
Naturally the crowd shrieked and some even ran, but the bravest of them all was a young girl of six who boldly asked him, “Did you swallow too many dimes? I did that once and had to go to the Doctor!”
He merely shook his head and announced that from this day forth, he was going to fight crime. The townspeople shrugged and went home. Chrome Man, as he was later dubbed, lived a boring life, for the town was small and nothing ever happened.
