This is exactly why I only read the Austin Chronicle for the escort service and massage parlor ads
I AM big, it's the shitty local free alt-weekly annual Best Of awards that got small Image
j/k, if you're an Austinite pound that poll for @EvilMopacATX because he rules

YESSSSS
Since I can't help myself:

Photo 1: 49 Plymouth, Rudy Rodriguez-style hot rod truck w/ chopped 38-39 Chevy cab, 51-52 Chevy, 95ish Buick Park Avenue to left

Photo 2: 73-76 Chevy Impala 2 door

Photo 3: 39-41 Chevy, though not 100% sure
And for Steve Adler and Greg Casar: anybody who pushes high density housing and getting rid of cars should probably sit this one the fuck out

Hangin' out, down the street
The same old thing we did last week
Not a thing to do, but talk to you

*Photo lifted from Rick McCloskey's amazing "Van Nuys Blvd 1972," a must-have book of California car cruising culture.

**Lyrics lifted from "In The Street" (written by Alex Chilton) from the Big Star album "#1 Record," a must-have for any music collection.
***and the 'Moonlight Cocktail' car that's attracting all the parking lot attention is a 1958 Chevy Impala 2 door hardtop with Cragar S/S mags and some primer on the door indicating a recent boo-boo.

Hey all you Weird-Ohs, it's time for #DavesCarIDService Image
*Ed "Big Daddy" Roth was the king of adolescent t-shirt hot rod monsters in the 60s (and the greatest artist of the 20th Century IMO), but he had competitors. Stanley Mouse for one, and Bill Campbell who designed the "Weird-Ohs" plastic model line for Hawk. ImageImageImageImage

Welcome to #DavesCarIDService, home of friendly while-u-wait car identification
*car is 1966 Lincoln Continental, car on sign is 1949 Mercury

**Unlike Dave's Perfection Automotive of Austin (no relation) I am not perfect at car IDs, I just try to do my best

***If you are new to this thing, here are the general guidelines:

The economy is just taunting my lack of imagination at this point

I am doomed to be the Vincent Van Gogh of farting, creating immortal masterpieces in lonely poverty which will sell for millions 100 years after my death
Farty, farty night
Flaming fumes that brightly blaze
Swirling clouds of methane haze
Reflect in David's eyes of china blue
