    Drove by a 1970's VW Van that was in pristine condition....almost felt like I'd time-warped back to the 70's....groovy, man!!

    Also walked by a very old Toyota in the parking lot at work...had to stop and get a closer look since it was an unusual tan/peach color. 1992 Corolla, also, in excellent shape....kudos to whoever has kept her going for 34 years!! (We don't have rust here, in Colorado, because we don't salt the roads, we use other stuff....so glad about that.)

    Montana doubles down on car destructive formulas for icy roads. They mix a lot of gravel w/the salt. That way once the ice melts trucks kick up all sorts of rocks & I swear, there's got to be at least one out of 20 drivers around here w/cracked windshields.
    Maybe that should have gone in the "just need to vent" thread

    1977 Volkswagen Scirocco in decent condition. One of the better examples of Giugiaro's "Folded Paper" design suite. Been quite a while since I saw one prowling around.

    Ford Lightning in the Costco parking lot.
    Another Grenadier. My brain cries Land Rover everytime I see one.
    A 1950s panel truck, likely a Chevy, and a Model A before it got cold. Both is good condition.
