The Cool, odd and unusual car pics thread...
And that is just a gorgeous MKIII. And do I spy a '66 Shelby in the background? And JEESH, less than $2000 for a brand new Ford? You can't even get a beat-to-hell hoopty Ford for that much, now.

'67 '68 '67 ...and they're not even fully assembled yet. also, interestingly enough, before WWII the swastika was seen as an emblem of bravery and good luck. then Hitler got a hold of it and ruined it forever.

Bank of America Borrows Muscle car...
I had Bank of America once, when I was in my early twenties. Never stole my car, but they did--and several times--hold several large debit transactions until my account balance had gotten low at the end of them month, in order to purposely overdraw me. I dropped them as my bank after they tried to rope me for over $600 in one month. they threatened to close my account about the same time that a lawyer contacted me (that's right, he contacted me), saying that what they were doing was illegal by Federal law and that there was a class-action suit pending. I declined on the class action suit, but asked him if he could still personally represent me by calling the bank himself threatening with a lawsuit. They settled out of court and sent me a check for the amount they had put me under (not including the overdraft and inactivity fees) and I only had to pay the lawyer a comparitively paltry $60 of the money they had given me back. I did however learn my lesson, and I keep a very close track of my finances. But the bank I'm currently at hasn't tried to stiff me over anything. So then, maybe this guy needs to lawyer up too.

Why didn't I think of this?!
Interesting. But I still stick to the belief that the Mayans didn't finish their Calendar because a buncha white guys showed up and ganked them all.

JUNE 2012 CAR SPOTTERS THREAD!
I really really want a BRZ or an FR-S. But I'm thinking if I got the Scion, I might order it with no badging, other than the "86" emblem on the fender. I dunno if I would rebadge it as a proper Toyota 86, or leave it like that though

what color is the LED (I'm assuming it lights up the vapor)?

That is too funny, We should start a thread on popular names and what they really mean! FORD = Failure on Race Day, F*cked-Over Reconditioned Dodge, Forget Out-Running Dale MOPAR = Mostly Old Parts and Rust GM = Generation Midlife, Chevy Chevrolet = Cracked Heads, Every Valve Rattles, Oil Leaks Every Time Buick = GMC = Pontiac = Poor Old Nitwit Thinks It's A Cadillac Saturn = Slow Ass Tincan, Usually Runs Never Oldsmobile = Old Ladies Driving Slowly Make Others Behind Infuriatingly Late Everyday Mercury = Lincoln = Dodge = Drips Oil, Drips Grease Everywhere; Dead On Day Guarantee Expires Plymouth = Please Leave Your Money Out Underneath The Hood Etc. we could have so much fun with this. I know there are some not PC versions but they are funny. Shucks = O'Rielly's = PEPBOYS = Be creative and come up with a blast of new name meanings. Camaro = Can A Mechanic Actually Repair One?; Chevrolet-Assembled Mustang Always Requiring Oil Mustang = Motor Under Strain, Transmission Absolutely No Good; Must Use Supercharger or Turbo Against Normal GMs. GTO = Gas, Tires, Oil Volvo = Very Odd Looking Vehicular Object Acura = Another Crappy, Useless, Rotten Automobile; Asia's Curse Upon Rural America BMW = Bitch, Moan and Whine, Big Money Waste Honda = Had One, Never Did Anything Toyota = This One You Ought To Avoid Hyundai = Hope You Understand, Nothing's Drivable And Inexpensive Porsche = Proof Of Rich Spoiled Children Having Everything One surprisingly apt for this conversation: Jeep =Just Eats Every Part Those were about all the ones I could think of. I know one for GMC, but it would likely offend half of the forum's population.

Never Let a Stoner chic drive your car...

That will buff right out.
Not many '61 Corvettes left running around, and some dingus drops it off a carrier truck?! HEADS WILL ROLL FOR THIS!!! Yes they will...at first I thought it was a 62, but it has contrasting coves. Narrow white walls were first offered in 62 IIRC...so this car should have/should have had widw whites IIRC. well it wasn't the color of the coves that gave it away for me as much as the inner trim: vs I had thought in the past I had seen '62's with color contrast coves, but I suppose they were custom jobs.

Pets Now wear Seatbelts in New Jersey...
hows this for a stupid law? brother that lives in Oklahoma links me to a story about a group of mothers who want to get "Duck Duck Goose" banned from playgrounds because some idiots tried to do it in a moshpit at a rock concert and got trampled. ---and the politicians are like, "A chance to screw over constituents before they're even old enough to vote?! heck yes!"

restraining a dog is a good idea. I always belted mine in, with the regular belts, and she was still able to stick her head out of the window. But (felony) animal cruelty? six months in jail? $1000 per animal? Really, New Jersey?
