A few weeks back I wrote !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! comparing auto enthusiasts to a fictional guy obsessed with laundry equipment. Some enterprising internet soul sent me this picture. You be the judge. Is a picture really worth 1000 1200 words?

!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!

As Mark Twain once quipped "Truth is stranger than fiction..." Keep it clean out there.

They all appear to be hooked up to. This isn't a collection to look at. I get the feeling these all actually get used.

If you look closely, I think there is a Versa in the back corner too.

Wow. A reverse Google image search has turned up some, uh, interesting results.

Seafoam Green! That must have been a limited edition, and a tough one to find in showroom like condition, or maybe it was a restoration.

Yeah and here I thought old oil cans were a cool addition to a garage.... Now...

Simplify, and [a load of] white[ness]?
