Volvos in Seattle...

I like that blown gasser.:devil:

James Dean's Little Bastard Porsche...

Just fucked that car all up. Mr Dean didn't fare too well either.

Some people are cheering Global Warming thinking this will be a thing of the past. Boy are they in for a surprise.

Mobile. Fucking. Waffle House.:devil:

I'm hearing a chorus of angels, rfn...

Seinfeld's car had star power added to the value and still got ten million less than Gooding predicted. The one that didn't sell was "non operational".

I wonder if it came with a Zoot Suit? :eyebrow:

Fairly interesting read in wikipedia. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pegaso

That car is, uh, unique.

Drove by the muscle car guy and caught a couple:

This LTD made me think of the one Burt Reynolds drives in "Gator" "White Lightning", but, I think his was older. And brown.

This one is just cherry:

While I was taking the pic of the LTD, a customer drove up in this old Rally Nova with factory sunroof:

The first car I can remember driving in was a ford Ltd. I think that was the car my mom had when I was born. White. With a black vinyl simcon top. I closed one of the doors on my fingers just as we arrived at a carnival one day. That was a panic. Missed the carnival. Just one of many trips to the ER for young Jimmy.

Baby blue, vinyl top, four door, LTD? Grandpa citizen car, soccer-mom before there was soccer, trade for a minivan, drop me a block from school before somebody sees us, so uncool it's warm. :yelsick:

My first car was a 1977 Ford LTD Brougham. Painted silver by the previous owner via Krylon cans and it had the blue top. Didn't even make it home before dying.

I spent a long time cursing my father for talking me out of the Camaro and into this heap. Once I got a bit older and wiser, I realized that I would surely have crashed the Camaro within the first year. I also realized that I now was capable of most any minor to intermediate repair on a car due to my father having taught me how to repair that junker, one breakdown at a time. Now, I bless his wisdom, although I never got around to telling him so.

One of my few regrets in life.
