A socialist may indeed be academically superior.
And yet, they are most certainly emotionally retarded. Public education is the opiate of the masses. |
When I lived in Indianapolis as a teen, a neighbor had one of those 3 wheel Messerschmitt cars. Strange looking thing.

I haven't seen one in ages and in the last two days I have seen the same one twice. It looks like a garage find, 100% original in the same white color as yours. |

The shop was a group of old retired dealership guys, the Chevy foreman brought all his Corvette customers with him. Guys with really weird stuff, half tracks, Dihatsus, Shelbys, etc. Said it was hard to drive in traffic, liked to stall when it got over 100* and wouldn't restart hot. I think they told him to stop driving it in traffic in August |

I’m working on my late-grandfather’s 1959 F-100. It’s not rare, but I’ve only seen about 5 others in person.
The 3rd generation F-100s from 1957 through 1960 are nicknamed “Fridges” because of their incredibly straight bodies and barely rounded edges. Each year had a different hood and grille. Dealers could put on whatever rear bumper the customer wanted. |
