    hey, hey, hey

    It's a GreenVista, BlueVista... Definitely not a Ford roof. Looks quite nice, anyway.

    This poor thing might be doomed to be perpetually for sale. Maybe we should start a crowd-source fund to save it. Make it our 'mascot'........

    If mounted to the sheetmetal at a weld point like they were designed.... the resulting noise of the tip dragging on the curb would turn the fender into a speaker. Everyone inside and outside heard the sound and knew you were close enough to park.
    The basis for this design is the ancient Victrola, which works with no electrical power.

    That hatch is off a Pinto.
