In photo 18, the customer who lost their keys under all those Nitric Oxide gas Cartridges is often used by cooks making whip cream… but in this volume, I imagine that this person is hawking it to drug users for huffing (breathing of the gas) to produce the side effects characteristic of psychedelic drugs–getting high…

Photo 25, I am surprised that they dod not bring in that bubbled tire when the first bubble appeared.

Photo 40, and I thought the battery installed under the rear seat of my '63 VW was bad…

Photo 42, It’s hard to believe that anyone could drive this for very long before the police received a 9-1-1- call, let along three days…

The prius being uncool is fair, we know dozens of owners who like them. Moms friend took a photo of the driveway when her work friends gathered tor nye brunch. 6 Prius from the 2nd and 3rd gen were in the driveway. Only exception was dads Crv in the garage

Probably the license tabs also but she had two stacks of parking stickers on the rear window of the Mazda in 19yrs on a community College campus where it was really a hunting license.

We had an actual key for the Datsun but the key could slide out without turning the ignition off. As my brother found out driving to school one morning.

The flathead screwdriver was the key to the. Church supplies room. A dime or 78 Vw key also worked. Back before they needed all the different locks on the building.

I had a school friend back in the '60s who had an old late '50s something Ford. He installed a momentary switch up high under his brake pedal attached to his starter solenoid. He would turn on the ignition, but not turn the key far enough to energize the starter, and when the radio came on he would beat on the dash and tune the radio and he would say, 'there it is… " and toe the momentary switch and the engine would start… We were a weird bunch… But as they say, “It was funny…”

My brothers 86 Jetta wore out the reverse light switch so he put a generic toggle switch on the dash to turn them on. That car had multiple MacGyver quality hacks but it got him up to the ski resort at 5am to start ski patrol. Until dad forced him to take a loan and get a new 2006 Legacy wagon that’s held up perfectly. The 09 Gti is tucked away for winter.
