Most costly and time intensive mind fuck ever, or the invention of the phrase “Hold My Beer?”

Oooooh, proto plastic engine cover shroud. The prediction they really got right here!

It’s sort of like Star Wars. You’ve never seen this thing before but it’s already old.

I don’t know if I can make it, but I will have all my tools with me if I do.

No Dallas “Mixmaster”? Very disappointing.

I’m guessing you are in one of those states like Texas where the plates stay with the car and you get thirty days to get the registration and insurance legit. For me that was the bright spot to all the trouble it took to get “in the system” when I lived there, once you’re in everything is easy.

Oooohhh, that is loverly!
