That sort of happened to me. One day, I started getting all the lawyer mailings, all telling me I wanted to make sure I had a good lawyer. I call a couple back trying to figure out why, and finally got that the Highway Patrol wrote “me” a ticket for causing an accident. After calling Police and Courthouses 5 counties…

Mine might not have been BS as much as really bad timing. I was going down the freeway in my ‘71 Super Beetle. I noticed the mirror was vibrating a lot, and was off center. I reached out to adjust it, and the 1 bolt that holds it on broke. I’m just pulling it in front of my face going; WTF? when blue light go on. Yep,…

At least that beats ‘Trail Rated’ for marketing purposes.

My Father’s Oldsmobile was the Delmont 88, and there has been nothing since I liked nearly as much.

My Chevrolet didn’t spell ‘Chevrolet’ across the back. The Bowtie was it’s ID. So just what is the big deal here?

How far are they willing to go? Especially in the era of corporate greed. VW made their rep in making fairly good dependable cars at a very low price.

That’s true. At a car show I went to once, there were a couple of the old ‘shine runner cars that were the first stock cars. One was fully restored, but still with the bullet hole from a Sheriff’s chase. 

Wow. I also had a ‘71 Super, and the starter was easy to swap. The only weird thing was getting the 2 bolts behind the back seat.

Is ‘2 door sedan’ anything like the current ‘4 door coupe’ ?

Best I’ve read today. Thank you.

Well, between the GM thing, and Takata airbags, and VW diesels, practically every car on the planet has been recalled. The numbers would HAVE to be less, ‘cause there’s not that much left.

I guess they just figure that he’ll NEVER do anything. If they sat for all these years, and he doesn’t care to sell them, then why have them? And then he’s gonna die, and somebody else will have to try and sell the place.

Mom’s had the Rocket, I assume. The stickers said ‘442 Rocket V8'. She like to get to work quickly. Pop was always able to get some really odd cars. I didn’t appreciate it enough at the time.

My Mom just had the Delmont 88.

Grillcraft doesn’t offer any for the HHR, the bastards.

The bigger versions of these are kind of like a mini-Walmart. Seriously. You can walk around eating your snacks and shop. One trip I got pipe tobacco, a Pink Lady album (still a fan, folks), some delicious rice&tuna balls, and wool socks.

My favorite line! And I still use it.

I have an HHR, and the back seats haven’t been up for 3 years.

If I remember correctly, a friend of mine once had a New Yorker Business coupe. You could turn the seat and it had a desk and cubbys in the back,

“We lost the vision of the era’s income distribution. “ You deserve a star for hitting that one on the head.
