In the background of the one pic you can see one of the abandoned schoolhouses in the distance.

    My dad had the same one when I was young. Got to shift it and was super smooth. Also, could take the key out while driving. I think it got like 30mpg.

      They were great little machines. My buddy’s mom had a red one that we used to beat the hell out of… it was like a little go-cart on steroids.

      A friend had a Civic. I also liked the shelf built into the dashboard. My Accord had one too. But that’s no longer possible in these days of air bags I guess.

    I really like that second photo. Good example of “a picture is with a thousand words”

      I’m sure if that car could talk, it would be a lot of swearing and screaming.

      Yup, not sure what made the big hole in the windshield though. I didn’t see anything inside that would have caused it.

        Buckshot creating a bunch of smaller holes that in turn created one big failure.

          Could be, or it was where most of the shots were concentrated I guess. Most of the guys around here are the deer hunting sort, so a lot of things end up with practice holes.
