    Truly random thought. Why aren`t more carmakers making a car with a green paint color?

    This got me thinking...Am I the only one who while watching a movie,starts looking for paint defects anytime a car rolls up on screen? Especially when they make it a "nice" car to try to impress the audience?

    In older TV shows and movies, they smeared something on paint to reduce reflections of camera/crew in the paint. It was so obvious.

    I feel sad when they wreck or blow up a nice vintage car in old movies.

    Wonder what happened to the owner of this plate. I want the plate for my car.


    Formerly the "Best Detailer", now just Super Wax Waster Man. Not necessarily tactful, but normally right. It`s good to be da King !!!

    At a local mall, there was some noise that was mistaken for gunfire so there was some panic as people sought refuge. The police quickly swarmed the area The local newspaper had a story about someone who had visitors from Iraq with them at the mall. The person was embarrassed and apologized. The visitors were reportedly to have said in Iraq the police usually run away.

    While walking through a street rod car show recently I noticed none of the cars had window wiper fluid nozzles. Made me wonder when wiper fluid became a standard feature. Does anyone know?
