what part of So Cal are you in? cause probably 20 years ago (maybe more) i used to see one of those in Long Beach. always in the Los Coyotes Diagonal/Bellflower Blvd/405 area. the only time i can remember seeing the driver it was a women in maybe her late 50's ealy 60's, so it's not unreasonable to think she might still be alive and in an assisted living facility now. wondering if it could be the same car

Remember Hot Rod the movie? (1979)
Suburban_Hooligan replied to Mike C.'s topic in The Off-Topic Lounge
iv seen it. it caused me to on a car movie downloading spree several years ago. got Hot Rod, Hot Rod Rumble, King of the Mountain, a movie id never heard of called "Red Line" staring Chad McQueen, the original Gone in 60 Seconds, The California Kid, a cheesy late 90's made for TV semi "remake" (i use that term loosely) of The Love Bug. Funny Car Summer, Fabulous Floppers, and some late 50's drag racing film called Ingenuity in Action. anyway there's also this movie called Hot Rod -
i remember seeing pic's of the car torn apart after the fire. looked salvageable (it is a race car after all, and re-pop 69 Camaro sheet metal is easily acquired). that's one reason iv been wondering. if it were an axe, would it be on its second head and third handle? or is there some actual made by GM in 69 stuff still there?

Favorite Obscure or Discovered Music Album

for those of you into the "Seattle sound" -
recently my city has decided it was a good idea to take out a lane on a rater busy street and make it a bike lane. it went from 3 lanes each direction down to 2. which do to location (directly off a freeway offramp that's right by a park entrance with a bus stop right behind it) has completely cluster-screwed traffic on that street. but don't worry, that bike lane will go largely neglected and unused by cyclists. don't ya just love it when your government uses your tax dollars for no good reason in a way that inconvenience you? and now they're are signs up on the next main street north of there, so im wondering if they're doing the same thing over there. which will be fun cause if that's the case there will only be on lane in each direction. and there is already about a 6 foot wide bike lane on each side of that street. i need to move.

i left work at 1 and went a cruised PCH down well into the OC. saw more C8 Corvettes, Porsches 911, and for some reason Aston Martins than i could shake a stick at. also 2 Audi R8's and 2 Lamborghini Huracans, , and thanks to traffic i was only able to get a pic of this. a Meyers Tow'd. not complaining, this is the first time iv ever seen one in the wild.
