    Plymouth tried in the 70’s …. Didn’t work then either.

  4. So... does this mean that, in a roundabout way, vinyl wraps are traditional? :rolleyes::eek::p

    I do like the "remove easily with aviation gasoline"part of the ad. :D

    "Aviation gas?!? Oh sure... I've got that around the shop somewhere. Lets see... hmmmm. THERE IT IS! Right next to my halftrack grease, under the big roll of zeppelin tape." :rolleyes::D

    I used to have a passenger side airbag. Could have used some of that Nervine stuff.

    That idea sort of took off. I saw quite a few in the 50’s.

  10. I once had a special tire pump hose that screwed into one of the spark plug holes. You ran the engine and it would fill a flat tire fairly quickly. It was noisy and would make the engine run rough even on a six cylinder. I imagine the tire could have a real blow out because there was fuel mixed in with the air.

    Pulled this off my shelf for this thread. This goes way back, like to the later part of the 1800's. You know, when Coca Cola still had cocaine in it. o_O

    10% pure alcohol, and it says at the top of the label "USES - A remedy to be prescribed by physicians in treatment of alcohol addicts. Also as a female tonic in diseases caused by debility of the female genitalia"

    Old lady in a bitchy mood? Give her Howe's Black Haw Compound. It'll calm her ass right down...lol
