Now I admit that that item is just SPEC-FOOKING-TACULAR. 2.2amps at 12V
-- wow! It's one notch above all those things we could bolt onto our
(front engine, rear drive, etc) in the past -- whirling propellers under
carbs, and even beats magnets on fuel lines.

The blatant lies and straight-faced deception in the ad copy is quite
breathtaking.


Though it might be fun to make a car that has ONE OF EVERYTHING on it --
JC Whitney light-up flashing swan hood ornaments, stick-on landau bars,
fuel line magnets, 12V turbos, clear spark plugs (clear distro caps are
just plain cool), quad exhaust tips, super-tall spring shackles,
multiple STP stickers, every wide mirror, interior gimcrack, curb
feeler, lightup hubcaps, ... a rolling museum of excessive
accessorizing! Hell, I'd pay to see it.
