Hell yeah, man! It's the mirth mobile!
Who doesn't want one? lol..


I did actually have the AMC SX4, though. Just sold it like 5yrs ago.

Every one of the above mentioned cars was frickin' bullet proof (ok...cept maybe the pinto). My buddy had a K-car that he bought for $200 and we beat the living chit out of that thing. I swear, it just wouldn't die. lol
My cousin had one, too. One morning he started it up to let it warm, and we were inside drinking coffee when we heard this horrible sound coming from the back parking lot. It was his k-car... throttle pinned.... filling the town with smoke.
My grandmother had a gremlin. White base model. No carpet.. all rubber. 6cyl manual. That thing hauled *** and ran for feckin' ever.
Chevettes.... she had one of them, too. I think everyone did at one point. It ended up in the woods at the farm. We used it to sight in our rifles. LOL...

the blood red vinyl interior .......... It was freaking hilarious seeing him and the wife
and kids riding around in it ......... I was like ........ somebody hit me with a pick axe
handle or something ......... seriously ........ a total space shot ..... kinda like
Nation Lampoons Vacation with Chevy Chase ......... only much more sinister
One time we had a sleep sofa tied to the top of it and it fell off ....funny ****

LOL...
My dad had a 14ft wooden canoe strapped to the top of his '70 Chevelle for like 3months through the winter........ covered in snow and everything.

Funny that Chevelle..... it burned oil like hell, so my dad always kept a 5gal bucket of oil in the trunk. The oil came from industrial blowers where he worked. LOL..
The car finally threw a rod so he decided to buy a brand new '79 AMC Concord. The dealership called him to come pick it up and when he got there the whole passenger side was bashed in. LOL..
My dad's like "WTF happened to my car?" The dealer had no idea.
So he waited another week for a new one and it came with a 4-cyl instead of the 6-cyl he had ordered.
Funny chit.

never knew how far north of Helsinki, Sysmä was! ....wow ..... getting cold yet ??
+7´c/ round 45f. Been like that for a few weeks. Drizzling rain nonstop for a week now, leafs are falling, and the forecast said night time temps are gonna go below freezing this weekend. Think it`s about time to fix that fuel-heater from my Volvo...

Sysmä is 175km/ 108 miles north from H:ki. A teeny little speck of a town on the east shore of the lake Päijänne. Beautiful place for a biker, 143 lakes and endless little roads around them, but the people are... yokels...

Finland, a land of a thousand lakes. 187 888 to be exact...

Man, one of the bummer parts of living halfway aroud the globe is the best stuff always happens when I sleep...

`Bout those gremlins and chevettes... Volvo`s done that too:


With the 480ES Coupè.

EDIT: Was the first morning of this winter when I had to scrape the windows... Reeally not looking for it... Last year we had a few days here when the temp went down to -32c. Spent one day in the side of a freeway cause my truck`s fuel filter froze shut...
