As usual, you don't disappoint Lee, thanks.

This Chargero, if you will, was assembled from a 2006 Charger R/T and a ute kit supplied by Smyth Performance, a name you may know from those VW Jetta pickups. Its conversion involved reinforcing the car's unibody to fit the kit's corrugated aluminum bed, which this car's seller on Bring a Trailer says can support an 800-pound payload--plenty for a light-duty sport truck.

Commercially produced soy sauce is usually helped along by some chemical processing but soy sauce made in the traditional method requires a fermentation period that takes a number of months. Traditional soy sauce is aged in barrels that aren’t cleaned between batches and the bacteria that lives in the barrels helps with fermentation. Dark soy sauce is aged longer than light soy sauce and tends to be both thicker and more flavorful.

Unlike other wines, sake does not benefit from super-long aging but it still takes time to make. The Japanese rice wine needs to brew for a month then age for six months before it’s sold to the public. That’s where the aging process ends and experts recommend drinking sake within six months of purchase.

The word prosciutto just means ham in Italian but most of us use it to refer to prosciutto crudo, a specific kind of thinly sliced dry-cured ham. Standard prosciutto is generally cured for under salt for two months then dry-aged for another seven to 18 months. Premium Prosciutto di Parma is made exclusively in the town of Parma through a much longer aging process, curing in salt for 60 to 90 days and dry-aging for anywhere from 400 days to three years.

Hot sauce can be made fairly quickly but it takes on a new quality when it rests in a barrel for a few years. Tabasco, one of the most well-known hot sauce brands, is aged in oak barrels for up to three years. The aging ferments the sauce and also allows it to take on the flavor of the barrel, much like a whiskey would. Over the last decade, barrel-aged sauces have become more fashionable, with artisan hot sauce makers expanding on Tabasco’s relatively simple recipe.

Not all vinegars with the word balsamic on the bottle are created equally. Many of the cheaper supermarket brands are simply regular vinegars made to mimic traditional balsamic vinegar from Modena, Italy. The proper stuff is rich and syrupy, thanks to a barreling process that involves the vinegar being moved through a series of increasingly smaller barrels over the course of at least 12 years, allowing the moisture content to slowly reduce

The group's first appearance on American TV was on January 3, 1964, on the 'Jack Paar Program.'
