Yes, those were the days. Guys knew how to fix those cars. Parts were available at the local car wreckers yard. They could keep an old jalopy going for years, until the nasty safety standards legislation took them off the road and built in obsolescence became the name of the game.
I recall how shocked I was when I first learned the meaning of "planned obsolescence" Talk about naive :)
The pimp mobile. BTW the house in the background is where the 300# naked guy lives.

Is that a Continental?
Now THAT's a car. People will get out of the way of that. And if they dont, it's got real bumpers.
