Cottonability

Cottonable wrote about us in their blog yesterday, which was nice of them. Want to know what they said?

Well.... click here to find out. In unrelated news, the first person to post a reply telling me what kind of car that is over on the right gets a free t-shirt!

JOHN said...

well, here's the thing. i don't know what kind of car that is either! so maybe if you linked to somewhere on the internet that had a picture of a car that looked like that one, i could actually judge this little contest. sorry, i didn't really think this through.

That is an AMC Gremlin. Do I win?

i love gremlins, but i don't think that's correct - see how the back of the gremlin slants at the same angle all the way to the bumper? Our mystery car doesn't do that - unless it's a gremlin from a different year or something... good try though!

datsun coupe is as close as we've come... but is it right? the back-end of the datsun looks a little "perkier" than that of our mystery car... a rear-view shot of the datsun could confirm or deny.

Brando In Tulsa said...

well this is the closest thing I could find, its a souped up Datsun Coupe....but all the telltale signs are there...Bumper....Wonky taillights.....beautiful

I've been obsessing over this now, asking every "car guy" I know. I'm now 100% sure that it is a Chevrolet Chevette. The tail lights match up perfectly, and the diamond shaped logo in the center does as well (on some reference pics).

notice the tail light colors
