Mopar Experts . . . .

I have never seen a Fender Tag like that. Have you? According to the VIN it was a 383-2V (L). Is that correct? Is this a made up car? Originally a 383-2V, now a 440+6?

This fellow showed up in a MA grocery store (Roche Bros. in Westborough) shipment just recently. An ultra rare Orange lobster - more rare than a Blue lobster (1 in 30M vs 1 in 2M). He was donated to the New England Aquarium and after a month-long quarantine will make his debut. His estimated age is between 7 and 9 years. Lobsters have a lifespan of approx. 100 years. For those that make it all they way, they usually weigh around 40 pounds.

The rarest colored lobster which I have posted photos of previously are those with no color: White. This occurs in approx. 1 in 100M.

Is that Hugger Orange? Or Carousel Red?

More rare than a Lucerne Blue lobster?

(lol)

The brown paint was not camo. It was there to save lives. The USA was concerned that Germany would use Mustard Gas (as it did during WWI). That brown paint is a special formula that would turn RED in the event Mustard Gas (not really a gas - more like droplets) was present.

Hurst Rescue System 1 Gremlin

George Hurst had the idea of creating a vehicle that could be used to transport his Hurst Rescue Tool, nicknamed ” The Jaws of Life” and other equipment to aid race car drivers in the event of a crash that caused entrapment of the driver. For this job he chose the AMC Gremlin. The Hurst Rescue System 1 was a complete rescue package equipped with firefighting, first aid, a 1000 pound winch and even a stretcher.

Tire maker Pirelli released this week a special tri-color edition of its colored tires to celebrate Festa della Republica, the anniversary of the Italian vote to establish a republic government after World War II.

Unfortunately, the tires will not be sold to consumers. A Pirelli spokeswoman said they were specifically made for dignitary use.

If I had seen that and his trailer didnt have any lock on it, it would have disappeared

I was following a pickup truck years ago on a divided highway, a couple of hundred yards behind, when his fiberglas tonneau cover flew up in the air. We were the only two vehicles on the road. It was tough to guess where this thing was going to land, but I managed to dodge it. He kept right on going...........

Had a car lose it's muffler in front of me a few years ago, looked brand new as I drove over it in my F-350.

I lost a shower stall out of the back of my ElCamino years ago. The wind caught it and it went about 30 feet in the air before crashing to the road and sliding into the ditch. The car behind me stopped in the road and waited until it stopped. I had to go back and buy a new shower stall.

Insurance Tip:

I had a piece of aluminum, conduit or flashing hit my car two years ago. When I went to my body guy for an appt he asked if the piece was moving or did I run over it? I asked what the difference was and he said a moving piece is covered under comprehensive whereas a stationary piece is considered collision, and the driver fails to avoid.
The piece in question had been in the adjacent lane and was touched by the tire of a van and sent airborne, hit my grill and went under the car exiting the tight side damaging the rocker panel. So being hit by a flying object as opposed to hitting an object that was in the way is worth knowing for insurance purposes. Repair bill was $1500 with a $300 deductible, or $1000 deductible if it was deemed collision.
