Lord Voldemort's ride.
Ha! 1968 Pontiac Grand Prix. Bought one from my grandfather for $1. Kept me on wheels for a few years while I worked my way through graduate school. 400 cubic inches of slow-turnin' V8. Nice cruiser, but it was falling apart by the time I sold it.
Same color as this one. Even had the spats on the rear wheels. I wonder if it was the last production car to sport spats? Anyone know? Stupid question-- this is GRM, somebody knows...

Went to the gun show yesterday, totally SWMBO's idea. She indulged me fondling every Garand and PPK folks would let me touch. I was sure to point out every Springfield 1911 we saw, fingers crossed the hint sank in, and she picked out a new hand guard/rail for her AR.
We bought from Discount Tactical out of Broken Bow, OK. Really nice husband and wife couple manning one of the larger booths at the show, they don't have a website yet, but are working on it, super helpful, and very friendly. So much so, that when we made our way back to pick up SWMBO's rail, I picked one out for me too. No pics of mine, it's not installed yet.
Got my low profile gas block in the mail today, and installed my new handguard. I still think SWMBO's looks cooler than mine though. Oh well, we don't have them for their looks.

We had a 76 Caprice Classic that sported skirts. I think all the big GM cars might have still had them that year: Olds 98, Buick something-er-other, Poncho same.

They still have debtors prisons in Dubai. Rather than jail around 3000 luxo cars/year are abandoned - later sold off at police auctions on the cheap.
The concrete underneath looks like a ramp. My guess is he put the boat in, went to buy beer and ice then the tide came in.
