Lancia is one those companies that put far more time, money, effort, resources and creativity into making awesome concept cars than its actual showroom products. I suppose once Fiat squashed all the design and engineering flair out of Vincenzo's old firm then they were only left to keep the spirit alive with concepts and design studies.

I'd like to see that feature with a door mounted snow brush instead of an umbrella. They're always in the way in the winter.

SlowBloke posted:Lol skoda has that in the fuel filler door.  If so, that's pretty cool, but not always in the way like a 2-3 foot long brush. A snow brush typically, but not always, has a scraper integrated an end.

These are small enough that I keep one in the driver's side door pocket in all my cars. The big snow brush goes in the trunk.

Finger Prince posted:What, stock and missing the hubcaps? In 2024 these 70s cars exist in one of four states: fully restored and never driven, restored/fixed up and driven on fair weather days, original/beat up sitting in a field with a tree trunk up against the firewall, or on the sales floor at Menards as a Maytag washing machine. The fact this car is all-original with minimal rust and some missing trim, but still running and driving, is rare. Someone would have had to sink $3,000+ on this to get it road worthy, money better spent on a boring and more reliable 00's or 10's beater. The kind of person who'd get this running and drive it daily despite the weather is someone who likes driving cars with some style and likely enjoys working on them, too.

The person here has a rare original pre-69 Impala with glorious age and weather related uh, 'patina' and obviously isn't precious about it. You ever hear the phrase 'scars are cool'? Well this car is wearing a set of scars earned over a period of at least 55 years of existence and is still rolling. That to me is very cool.

And I dont even think it's a chain. Looks like a standard snatch strap. But still applaud using that cheap rental. (also feel free to vote for terrible/wrong thread)
