I have been having a lot of fun with the Curbside Captions, and it appears that I am not alone. Here is one that caught my attention. A wreck. A cop. A guy staring at the ground with his hands in his pockets. Some things never change. But I am sure that some of you see some other possibilities here.
Is that a Willys?
Nash.
And they say all cars look the same now, as if it is a new thing… Take of the badges on a 1920’s car and 99% of people couldn’t pick them
That’ll just buff right out.
The Salvador Dali special edition gathered lots of onlookers but no buyers
“Good tires, Bob said, casually dangling his cigarette, but certainly not great tires.” (I can’t be the only one that flashed to this old quote.)
Ha! Ya beat me.
“OK, kid, now explain this again…you got a what kind of message on your eye what? And that’s how you got distracted?”
(The “good tires but not great tires” quote is a classic, definitely.)
Ha ha, good one!
“Dammit, Eunice – learning to parallel park just shouldn’t be this hard!”
Doh!
“I swear, officer, the car just took-off like it had a mind of its own!”
The aftermath of the first sighting of “Bigfoot” in the 1920’s…
After some disappointing early attempts, air delivery never took hold in the automobile distribution business.
He had this long spool of wire, see, and he was trying to telegraph and drive, see…
“I guess I should have bought the Trail Rated model.” (A particularly fitting comment if this is a Willys.)
Uh oh, better get Maaco.
GPS said “turn right”… so I did.
A thrillshow? That’s no excuse. I’m sorry Mr. Chitwood, but I have to give you a ticket.
The first recorded attempt at text messaging….with a Remington Royal.
A flying saucer, huh? You sure about that, son?
That thing is TWISTED!
I KNEW I should have taken that left turn at Albuquerque!
Right Bugs!
What’s that box stuck on the hood? Darned if I can figure it out.
It’s the side portion of the bi-fold hood, complete with louvers.

Soooo . . . . who’s got AAA?
Darn termites! They ate the car framing and slapped me upside the head causing me to lose control! I fell in the river and almost died of “Potomac” poisoning!
And then the toaster oven just jumped out in front of me!
Today they passed the most severe Driving While Texting law….
(*Dist Co plates….)
DC plates! So that’s what happens when you go hard right.
That hand crank sure has a lot of kick back.
Cop – “Did you know that there was a recall for some Firestone tires a while back? The tires in question kind of look like the kind you have, something about them causing roll overs. They say they have it fixed though.”
Driver -“Really? I might have to explore a law suit. Thank god nothing exploded”
I didn’t expect that to happen when I told the car to “play dead”!
Well, Dad, the good news is that the front bumper and the driver’s door still look as good as new.
I don’t see the rollover airbags deploying…
I can’t say I wasn’t warned. Warranty expires one day and Bam, this from one little pothole.
Hats prevalence of yore based upon:
A. Social Custom
B. Bad Haircuts
C. Lower auto interior roof room
D. Merely replaced by ball-cap-type hats
E. Expense as masses faced generations-long decline of incomes due to class warfare within USA
F. _________________________________
Cop: “What say you, then, Mr. Holmes?”
Man with pockets: “I can make a few small observations, Lestrade. Our driver had spent time in Borneo, smoked a Trichinopoly cigar, and clearly was carrying his mother-in-law in the passenger seat.”
“I’ve decided not to buy the car, but thanks for the test drive!”
