You know.. remove the banner and spoiler, fix the antenna ($30 or so for a new mast+cable from the dealer, if they still stock the part), and paint the hood a solid color, and you have a very clean 90-91 Integra that I would drive all day every day. The sedans didn't sell very well to begin with; seeing a clean sedan in the wild is pretty rare these days.

Completely unrelated, I miss my 91 Integra.

In more capable hands, the Cadillero would be a really neat thing. I can see what he was trying to do, and I like the idea. Just needs better execution.

I think the grille and rear tail lights are what stands out - he should've tried using a front end and tail lights from a Caddy from a similar year of the El Camino to better match to the body.

Guy did that at the petsmart by my house. Pulled into the crosshatch zone in front of the store, hopped out and walked inside, left it idling. Plenty of other open spots around, so it's not like he was inconvenienced in any way. Soooo I locked the doors with the engine running and then called the cops on an illegal parker.

I was parked in the spot next to the empty disabled spot, and as I was getting ready to back out, he came out, grabbed the door handle to try to open it, and then looked up and locked eyes with me. I'm not sure if he put two and two together, but I didn't hang around to find out.

Serves the bastard right.

I see something similar all the time at the grocery store and it drives me nuts. A man is sitting in the car, idling, right outside the door while his wife goes in to get something. He's 20 feet from an empty parking spot, but he chooses to block the road. He could have even dropped her at the door and gone to park, but nooooo. Next time I think I'm going to tell him off, it's usually some middle aged dude in a convertible so he'll be able to hear me bitching at him.

I go around to different grocery stores for work so this is pretty much a daily thing for me. There will be a line of cars parked right in front of the sign that says 'Fire lane, no parking.' AMERICA!

They're probably headed to mud-fest.


I used to live in Okeechobee, Florida. It's your run-of-the-mill small town. The economy of the town is driven by it's close location to Lake Okeechobee; one of the largest fresh-water lakes in the United States. Professional fishing tournaments are held frequently in the lake. However, once a year during the summer a near-by ranch owner opens a portion of his field to be turned into quite possibly the largest privately-owned mud-pit in the state. I lived there when the first Mud-Fest began, and it was a huge deal. On one side, it brought in a good chunk of change to the local businesses. However, the dark side of this was having to deal with hundreds of rednecks in lifted Jeeps/Fords/Chevys who may or may not be on something as well as possibly drunk; driving those death-mobiles everywhere for three days. Another problem is the traffic it creates. The town is split into even quarters by the intersection of 70 & 441, and to get anywhere in the town, you'll end up on one of those roads for a minute. Suddenly a normal small town is having traffic jams of diesels and lifted bro trucks all coal rolling or whatever the gently caress it's called.

Extremely appropriate.

Although it was a double-edged sword for me. I worked in a local shop there installing car audio. During Mud-Fest I was constantly raking in tons of money because I had poo poo-loads of overtime. It was nothing to have a 100 hour work-week for the two weeks leading up to the event. On the other hand, I was constantly covered in dirt and mud and always sweeping the shop the second a tool left my hand.
