Keep hammering this story until the mainstream media has to revisit their sensationalism from when this clown first surfaced.

@lilwillie: That's what I thought when I saw the ambulance. Too bad we'll all suffer for letting things get this bad.

It seems like a lot of money. I sold my Scamp for $200. OTOH, this is a low mileage Duster canvas. They were lovable cars, and this one is a good base to turn into a 340 replica.

I still think the final revelation will be his relationship with the local police.

@joeisuzu: I'm originally from Charlottesville. There were plenty of Peugeots in that college town as recently as the mid '80s, but they were hard work to keep running. Jim Price Chevrolet had the franchise at the end, and I think they still had 405s in stock a couple years after Peugeot gave up. Before them, there…

It looks remarkably like a 1995 Plymouth Breeze/Dodge Stratus/Chrysler Cirrus. I suppose that is a step in the right direction for GM.

@twitchykun(lvl. 75 Yellow Fever Vector)): The van is parked on corner of Fanuel and Diamond on Google street view. Try this link:

There is a crazy homeless tweaker living in Pacific Beach who has all his worldly possessions crammed into a parallel parked old Dodge van and three BMWs, including one 635CSi. I saw one of the BMWs burn once. The fire department watched it from a block away until another fire company showed up on the scene and then…

@Madcows: Mea culpa. I've read that they were derivatives of the trans-4 with heads developed in conjunction with Lotus in the past, but will take Allpar's word for it. Extremely sorry.

@Madcows: The Neon engine was a development of the old Trans-4 which was in some ways an OHC version of slant-6 architecture. The Sebring Coupe/Avenger contributed roughly nothing to Chrysler's survival, just as the Plymouth Laser/Eagle Talon didn't make my list of profitable programs. Chrysler was a shell with little…

Anyone who can identify different generations of x-boxes is standing in a glass house.

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that the 'thin ice' warnings were posted after the ice groomer went swimming. Mind you the Zamboni sticking out of the hole in the ice should serve as warning enough.

@orbit: People aren't being taught to think about non-government solutions to their problems. Reading your post here was a very pleasant surprise. Thanks.

@brandegee: Beyond a couple of specific engines which Chrysler bought from Mitsubishi and some captive imports, what technologies did Mitsubishi contribute to the K-car(including minivan derivatives), the LH, the Neon, and the Dodge Ram? Those are the programs that carried Chrysler until the Mercedes buy out, and…

@orbit: Raise it to what?

What is Mitsubishi doing still being in business? Their products are so bad that Mercedes managed to destroy Chrysler's reputation by replacing their line with reskinned Mitsubishis. Mitsubishi was dragging down their partners' balance sheets even when auto sales were setting records.

@orbit: What I really miss about the prospect of nuclear annihilation was that it occupied the minds of all the useless hippies. Now they're obsessing about chicken little fantasies of man made 'global warming' and doing much more damage than they achieved against our national defense.

If he has been partying like its 1988 for the past 32 years, then he was probably ready for some RIP.
