My parents had one of those, and they ended up selling it as my sister was reaching driving age because neither of them wanted to teach her how to drive a manual. In the end, she didn't get her license until after me, so it could have been my first car, instead of the RWD GM X-body I ended up with. I kind of wonder how my interest in cars would have developed differently. Funny thing, is, my parents sold it to family friends so it could be their daughter's first car, but the mother and father both liked it so much, they kind of fought over who got to drive it, and their daughter ended up with a different car.

Funny article. The pedantic in me notes that it's certainly not "worth its weight in gold" though, as asserted by the author.
For a truck like that, they'd need to have stashed about $200m instead.

I understand. There's a lot to love about a lightweight rear wheel drive stick shift that has Toyota reliability.

That's a beaut. I'm very interested in those bikes.

Cannot find. Saturday Night Live. Beldar Conehead is filling the tank of his car (probably a mid 70s Impala), looks around, takes the nozzle out of the filler neck, and pumps a few shots of unleaded directly into his mouth.
It was the skit where it turned out that the Chrysler Building was actually an emergency escape space ship, the Coneheads went back to their home planet, and Coney was dismissed as a "fluffthrag". (Sure, her cone's been honed, but that doesn't mean she can't hang out and groove!)
Season 2 Episode 22 - Return of the Coneheads
Found the transcript but can't find the skit.

That sticker reminds me of SPAMBY the meat product toy from HBO's Hardcore TV.

Nose art had to give way to politically correct BS, now it's inside.

Poke around Northwest Vintage Speedsters for inspiration. Guy in Vermont was selling a 1952 and a 1956 Brockway, $1200 for both. I don't have enough trailer to get them home, but look for an American La France speedster. 14 liters of noise and flame to entertain the neighbors.

I'd like to show up at the turkey rod run with that.
Still, this should be unique enough.
