Took the #AMCGremlin to work today. Spent an hour before driving home to be a one car parade through Springfield, the bass of old school hip hop rattling the streets. $4/gallon gas dismisses the joy in the joy ride, but seeing surprised motorists with smiles or confused expressions is always priceless. #CarTalk #AntiqueCar

Thanks to #JamesFell for this hysterical tidbit.

“Hey, honey, I just bought you a brand-new car. Check it out!” “Haha. Very funny.” “No, really. This car is all yours.” “Yeah, right. I checked the calendar. It’s April Fool’s Day. That thing looks like a dump truck had sex with a Japanese toaster oven.” In the 1970s, in North America alone, AMC sold almost a million of the ugliest car you ever saw.
