My next car...this is frickin sweet!

I had to post this. It would be really fun to drive around in this car. I saw it at a gas station and had to pull in for a second look. I think my MINI whimpered in fright.

In case you are wondering what you are looking at (I still am), I think that this is a Lincoln Continental chop top with a Rolls grill with barbed-wire slats, huge side exhaust pipes, and wheels that make most SUV's jealous (really, they were up to my hip and I am 6'1"). Or maybe its a UFO. It must have been quite the beauty in its days. I can only dream that one day I will drive a vehicle as fine as this.
