Craigslist Project Car - Pinto with a Jet Engine

[Frosty]

Now this is something you don't see everyday. Thumbing through Craigslist today, I stumbled across this interesting project car. An unfinished '73 Pinto wagon with a jet engine! Yes sir, nothing will get your attention faster than a Pinto passing you on the highway at Mach 1.

Guess the regular Pinto caught fire not easily enough so he added a custom jet engine to help out.

Perhaps. I figure the jet engine is a crash detourant. "Come any closer and I will light this sucker up!"

You may catch the other car on fire but he might be able to get the heck away from that crash

There's plenty of room in the dash for the seatbelt light.  Does the seat have to be a floatation device?

[Frosty]

Nope. It's a jet Pinto, not a jet boat. However, an ejection seat and a parachute might not be a bad idea.

I just saw the below and it's creepin me out a bit:

Perhaps you are relieving the Brownsville Station classic tune "Martian Boogie" in your head Ringo!

"So I ordered me up a
Couple of those grease bombs
Waitress brought 'em over
Lifted up the bun, checked 'em out
Damn, no ketchup

So I nudged the guy sitting next to me
At the counter, I said, "Hey, partner
How about passing the ketchup over?"

Suddenly, this little bitty green hand
Holding a ketchup bottle came into view
And I freaked cause the guy sitting
Next to me... was a Martian!!

Now in twenty-eight years of eating hamburgers
I ain't never run into no Martian
Not at 2:30 in the morning and certainly
Not at a fine scarfing establishment like Eat"

This is a very true statement right here
