Yowzers, great list, But you forgot one very important accessory.... One seldom seen these days, And I even recently got one, with an entire '82 diesel westy powered by subaru' vanagon attached to it - That 40's era mandatory coolness accessory, .the ............'Brodie Knob' !! If you have one of those on your steering wheel, you have to have a DA haircut too. And maybe a pack of cigs tucked in your t-shirt sleeve -----Original Message----- From: Vanagon Mailing List [mailto:vanagon@gerry.vanagon.com] On Behalf Of Mike S Sent: Friday, November 23, 2007 3:26 PM To: vanagon@GERRY.VANAGON.COM Subject: Re: Friday: Best Stupid Automotive Product At 11:58 AM 11/23/2007, Tabe Johnson wrote... >Anyone got anything else like that? Well, there's the Tornado "Fuel saver." http://www.tornadofuel-saver.com/ And how about gas line magnets ("ionize your gasoline!") STP/Lucas/amsoil and all the other snake oils and additives. K&N air filters. Fram oil filters. Rear deck wings seem to be popular these days, as well as "fart pipes."
The right sticker ("Type R," "Injen," etc.) is good for 10 HP, at least. Underbody "neon" lighting. Most "cold air intakes," which by design are really warm air intakes. Of course, there's always the traditional fuzzy dice, curb feelers, and zodiac pillows. Visit http://www.JCWhitney.com/ for more. |
