Just watched a Leno's Garage featuring the vehicle in post #2298 (above). The builder has been featured on the show before.

The same-o, same-o white car profiles remind me of the Sunday comic features such as "which of the pictures is slightly different."
I still play those, BTW.

Why not, they're fun, you can do them as fast or slow as you want, and they take your mind off the zombies in the streets.

I've been driving my current car since April of last year and I still have a bitch of a time finding it in the parking lot. The old one was red, this one is silver.

I'm this close to paying for a custom paint job.

If you want a big-ass martini after work, you're gonna need a big-ass mixer.

This crazy thing was parked outside the liquor store I frequent a few months ago. Bought a bottle, but it turned out that I liked the truck more than I liked the whiskey (I'm not much of a scotch drinker).

Just set off the alarm with the button on the remote and follow the sound.
Doesn't work well when several people are doing it.

A few years back, silverfish (no, spell check, silverish, not silverfish) Hondas were the most common call for locksmiths. They had to take care of keys broken off in someone else's door.

We have one of those silver Hondas. I don't care for the silver, but it hides dirt well.

Last summer I walked up, opened the door and fully sat inside someone else's car.

It was unlocked because there was a teenage girl sitting in the back seat. Her pointed "Umm..." was the first inkling I had that something was wrong.

Gravdigr · 03-27-2019, 12:48 PM

Popdigr and I did that at a pawn shop once. Opened the unlocked door and we both were inside the 2-door ~~Mitsubishi~~ Isuzu Trooper II. It wasn't until we started to shut the doors, and the door pulls weren't in the right place, that we realized our mistake. They were identical except...

Our Trooper was a four-door.

That two-door was a fairly rare bird, I know now...

Spoiler alert, they're probably still numbers.

On this day in 1927 the Sunbeam 1000 HP

broke the land speed record by going 203.79 mph at Daytona Beach, FL.

The 1st non-American car to make a record run at Daytona Beach, and the 1st car to surpass 200 mph.

200mph...1927.

Let that sink in for moment...

Bullshit, everybody knows Sunbeams travel at 186,000 miles per second.
