Did you know that thousands of Jalopniks will go to bed tonight without ever having ridden in a perfectly restored Citroen DS or even touched a Mercedes 300SEL 6.3? Some have never seen a lead sled in person or opened the door on a 55 Roadmaster.
Those of you blessed with a stable of cool vintage machines, please remember the less fortunate, especially during this holiday season.
Won't you please consider fostering at least one Jalopnik? It costs you nothing but a little time, some gas money, and a hefty liability rider on your insurance, but isn't giving what it's all about? Jalopniks are available individually or in sets in a variety of sizes, colors and flavors. You'll receive a photo of your little Jalopnik and a personal thank you note from Mr. Wert, who allows nothing but well mannered, or at least well meaning, often sober, dragons to reside here at the Jalopnik Academy.
So, please, won't you think of fostering a Jalopnik today?
There is just so much right with the stuff in Jay's Garage. This will be a masterpiece. As an aside though, I really think this is the peak of Mercedes body styling. If they put modern mechanicals into it, and put it into production, I know scads of people who would buy one.
I know of a W108 that was (and hopefully still is) available for $1500, how hard can it be to find a wrecked AMG? Bonus points for going for a Red Pig theme.

...never mind that an original 6.3 goes like stink. This creation will be a monster.

I mean, it's common knowledge making a car look wicked automatically adds 50 HP, or why else would ricers with huge wings go, um, so fast?

I half expected 22in DUBs and a Denso paint job.
