Akku's Home for Destitute Oldsmobiles has no vacancies, but the world is full of such deserving cases. like this oneIt has "Akku's Ruin" written large all over it, I feel glad I didn't buy that Toronado now. I'm now huffing and puffing with unbridled WANT

It's got exactly the right amount of doors and B-pillars. Could you clear a space for it by relinquishing something that has more of each?

Going by the shape and the lines of the rear arch, that could very easily carry off the 'mean' look with a bit of black paint

It's got exactly the right amount of doors and B-pillars. Could you clear a space for it by relinquishing something that has more of each? This looks like basis for what will become known as Akku's Theorem. Needs to be expanded to include the variables that allow you to fit the maximum number of cars into space you don't really have.

invest in acro props and younman boards this will allow you to double deck the vehicles on your lawn,you can sell this idea to the local council as being in the public interests as bus passengers will no longer be able to see into your kitchen when you are doing your naked chef gogo dancing hobby

Sorry but to qualify as a Redneck they need to be Caddie's stored upside down, possibly with bullet holes.... As an aside I like it....get it bought you know you want to...looks surprisingly solid and with that chassis you should be onto a winner

Damn you Akku!
You've made me peruse American cars on eBay now!!
There's a really ratty Chevy Bel-Air for sale not 10 miles from me and I have to say I am suffering of much wantage.

Thats been on quite a few times, although it seems to look a lot less rusty than it did in the photos previously! Nice slot mags though....Its crying out for a nice V8, who on earth ordered a 6! Akku to distract yourself from what will obviously be your new lawn feature your challenge for today is to find me a (reasonably priced) Aussie now! Missed out on the ebay HZ Holden (yes I really don't learn ;D) as a daily by a matter of hours last week.....

Much as I do proclaim to be the archetypal English Redneck I really don't want cars on the lawn to be a regular storage option... Please be aware there is a drought on and if all people could perhaps make their lawn smaller by buying old American cars and storing them on the 'new' car storage area then all problems would no doubt be resolved! * You know you want another that doesn't work at the moment ;D John * A water board official may not have said any of this
