This was 24 hrs 7 days a week for a few weeks, then that city goverment got thrown out or something.

My Dad reall like his, I have no idea why. He named it Blue Duck after the Indian from Lonesome Dove. My dad is weird.

Diffrent things that were used at one time or another to hol the car together--Duct Tape (trunk door), Pipe Cleaners (something on the bottom, exuast pipe maybe), Thumb Tacts (the cloth on the roof), and string (the passanger door).

It was weird, he ended up with three diffrent keys because to fix the trunk and door Tony just put on ones from another old FIAT.
