    This one seems sorta politically incorrect or somethin. I can wear my neon green Driveshaft Through the Skull T-shirt anywhere really. School, hockey games, the garage when I'm working on the Tempo.

    But I think I could offend people by showing up in a Shabbat Shalom M F R shirt.

    @Ford Tempo Fanatic: On the other hand, if it was a Shabbat Shalom MotherFcukeR shirt, I have no doubt it would be readily available at a horrifying shopping mall near you.

    How does a 2002 in that condition end up in a junkyard? It has all its wheels still! What has condemned this classic to the junkyard?

    The thing I like most about Toyotas of that vintage is the way the automatic transmission shifter looks like an afterthought, as if the designers were saying, WTF are you thinking? Get a stick shift!

    These three should be combined into one or two glorious junkyard creations. Maybe the Toyota engine into the Spitfire or maybe an M10 powered RWD conversion on the Toyota or the BMW engine in the Spitfire. The Spitfire engine can stay at the junkyard, the rest needs to combine into a nice PCH for someone.

    That spitfire has only a single carb, not the duels it should have. I saw a '76 Spit at the yard down here in Sun Valley, with an overdrive gearbox. Sadly when I returned with the So-Cal Jalop brigade, it was gone. I could use those side marker lights off of it, but they're not worth the 400-mile drive. Sad though that yet another nice little British roadster has gone the way of Elvis.

    @Graverobber: You mean it bloated up to twice its size, OD'd on drugs, reportedly died on the can but has been seen ever since in odd places and so may not really be dead?

    Sad end for three fun little runabouts. Incidentally, the Corolla should indeed have the 4AGE, as you can read here:

    Does anyone share my belief that "Triumph Spitfire" is the best car name ever? I think we need a QOTD on this. Or did I just miss it?

    I'm partial to the Triumph, since my first car was a Spitfire, but that 2002 is sweet, and even the humble Corolla has some merit. I'd write more, but Power Block is wrapping up, and I've got to get to the garage.

    That 2002 reminds me of when I found a '68 A-100 forward-control passenger van in a yard 35 miles away, which was mostly intact, save for some of the engine, the ultra-common 318. Completely normal to see those parts gone, but it's the only normal thing about this vehicle.

    I made an offer to the guy who owned the yard, $200 for a month's worth of parting out, this was 1985, then he can sell what's left. He agreed, and I started carting truckloads of parts home.

    I left pretty much a bare shell. You gotta love having a spare transmission for when your OEM one, with over a ¼ million miles on it, is being rebuilt.

    This BMW is that kind of find. Unusual to find one in a salvage yard, much less one this intact. Good find!

    Every junkyard should be so nicely stocked. The CA cars look more like fixer uppers than an eye blink from the crusher.

    The Mercedes to the right is laughing at the poor 2002. "You are weak!"


    Plus, how did gramps exit his car? That first step's a lulu.

    @Mr4Runner: Since all you're really saying is "I'm cooler than you are because I saw this first", and I've never seen it before, and I am clearly much more awesome than YOU, you therefore must be wrong.


    Sorry, the logic proves it, it's undeniable.
