There's a house in our 'hood that has a ton of plastic flamingos in the back yard year round.
Whilst walking the B-Dawg today, I noticed that the flamingos were prepared for winter.
Yep, each and every one of them has a knitted scarf.
THAT is AWESOME!! lol

It doesn't make you look like less of a douche when the rest of the lot is also supercars, and you
still
park your expensive ride far away...

The lone car actually showed up the day before. I thought it was a cool pick, then the rest showed up. This was in Orlando.

Interesting. Must have been some kind of convention.
And if memory serves, I've a cousin who lives in Orlando, who I've not seen in far too long.

One of the cool things about living across the alley from an automotive machinist & hard-core car junkie is that you'll never know what's going to show up in the driveway. Yesterday, it was a 1949 or 1950 Crosley - and if you've never heard of one, don't feel bad; neither had I before yesterday.

does it have the tinplate brazed block motor or the cast iron block?
I saw a few as a kid that were still on the road...I think they were able to give a Renault Dauphine a run for its money

I had to go look it up; according to Wikipedia
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crosley
, 1949 marked the shift from brazed sheet metal blocks (do you still get to call it an "engine block" if it's made of sheet metal?) to cast iron, as the "Mighty Tin" brazed ones didn't hold up to anti-freeze well -- apparently, they suffered from bad corrosion that caused the brazing to come undone with rather dramatic results.
We looked it over quite a bit; it's got some innovative (for the time) bits like an overhead cam, shaft-driven by a beveled gear
as well as an overall air of extremely cheap, thin manufacture. In some ways, you can see the a picture of the crosscurrents of the postwar era right there - a car that was economical and touched what could have been all the right buttons for Americans who were emerging from first the Great Depression and then the horrors of World War II ... except for the fact that Americans suddenly found themselves with the world's last-man standing manufacturing capacity, confidence from emerging victorious from the war and a taste for cars that were bigger, flashier, faster and more technologically advanced. The Crosley was none of the above.

What do you expect from an appliance manufacturer?
A kid I knew back in the early 70's had a panel delivery truck. Cute little thing.
