My Lincoln is about 52 years old. Has about 60,000 miles on it.
But is it a Hot Rod Lincoln?
My new-to-me Chevy Corsica is 16 years old and makes me drive too fast. Really, it's the car's fault. I'm not used to driving something with actual acceleration. G-forces feel good.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
But is it a Hot Rod Lincoln?
The engine is hot rod-ish - a 430 CID 350 HP 10:1 compression ratio wedge-head MEL (Mercury, Edsel, Lincoln) series engine with four-barrel carb. But the engine is very heavy and so is the car. I think Popular Mechanics said its top speed is around 120 mph.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Serpentine belt tenser! I actually remembered a car thing!
Mine had nothing to do with braking, meara--it was when the car was warming up. And then it went away, so I ignored it. Until it started doing it all the time, which meant it had seized and was about to shatter. Oopsie.
My Accord squealed on braking because of an accumulation of brake dust, and they said they couldn't make it stop. It was annoying.
Brows done! Why can't people follow simple instructions? I say don't wax between the brows, don't wax between the brows. She waxes between the brows. Once you put wax on, is there any way to get it off other than ripping? Because I did repeat not to after she applied it.
Still, if it does breakout, hopefully not for too long.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I was so scared when I saw "Tom Fugdy" as a GFY post title! [link] Luckily, it was Brady.

Camwhore Tom Hardy could fuel an entire fug blog himself.
Bless his little heart.

I feel like he is mostly not fug. But I may be blinded to his fashion issues....

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
When we bought our 2003 Astro in 2006, it had 40,000 miles on it. Today it has 265,000. We just acquired Sophie, the swag wag, a 1996 Buick Roadmaster Estate Wagon, with wood paneling, and it had 36,000 miles on it at the end of July. In October, it has 50,000. And that`s with me flying instead of driving to Ohio.
Oh, and you know that current black Impala I wanted to buy? Good thing I didn`t. I rented one this trip, and that thing kept beating me up. If I had it close enough to reach the pedals, I couldn`t get out without whacking my knee on the steering column, and I kept hitting the edge of the door getting in.
