Rediscovered some photos I took for a photography class 15 years ago. I was driving a friend, and a friend of a friend somewhere when we spotted this Yugo.

Who could resist getting a photo?

I got to take one for a test drive once, and it’s really just an ordinary 80's economy car. The only really thing that really screams cheap about it is the dashboard, which is made of like lunch tray plastic.

And the gearstick has no shape to it. It’s just like the end of a broom, no molding in it, no contours, just a long, thick stick. That was the weirdest thing for me when getting in one. I didn’t get to drive it myself, tho.

I remember them being everywhere when I was a kid, I still see one on the roads every day or two.

U.S. spec cars had a conventional knob

Hey, if you really want one, you also probably want two.

Why settle for just one?

Easy. You strip one for parts, park it outside, and it will instantly vanish in a rust colored poof!

But then I’d feel guilty for a rare car rusting away! :P

Well it will be rusting away anyways but you could speed up its inevitable end.
