Wish I could pay what that guy did for a headlight replacement. I was quoted $1400 insurance estimate for one for my truck (after smacking a deer). Dang disco lights...

My boss, who has that same truck, had a homeland security agent pull out in front of him a few months ago. It got both headlights among other things. It really didn't look like 5,000 dollars worth, but it sure was. Uncle Sam didn't bat an eye. :D

Because Uncle Sam was using your boss' money to pay for it, lol.[emoji846]

It's a Nash Metropolitan. [emoji846]

An upholstery shop operator on Atwood Avenue in Madison, Wisconsin c.1967 had a thing for Metropolitans, which could be had for not much more than pocket change back then. As I recall, he painted ’em all yellow and black and parked ’em out front of his shop. A friend (still a friend, all these years later) lived quite near, so I witnessed the collection as it grew.
