When you see a pretty car...

I hear Aztecs are going up in value because they've gotten old enough to be considered "quirky" and "fun".

Yuk.

Didn't Walter White drive one?

I was a valet at Pinehurst, NC when these came out. I was one of the few that thought they were oddly not bad. Weird, but not horrible. Yet also not desirable. They were a pretty common rental car which is why we saw them. We laughed at them but they were pretty good as rentals for guys coming to play golf as they held several sets of clubs quite well.

A Cybertruck is the only vehicle in existence that is uglier than the Pontiac Aztec

And that is a HIGH bar.
The Aztec used to come standard with an attendant who would stand in your driveway and slap you when you parked and got out.

The car wife and I bought for our son to go to high school in. 327, 202 valves, 4 speed Muncie and for me to teach him auto mechanics. Which he got a lot of with this ride.

This was back at the end of October, but I just now got around to editing the video
The Rolling Sculpture Car Show always has lots of pretty cars. I learned how to hand crank a 1925 Rolls Royce!

I'm wondering about that Jeep truck. My automotive knowledge is generally poor but the internet tells me that the truck used in the movie Tremors was a 1963 Jeep Gladiator Thriftside (J-200 short bed). Is that what we're seeing at 6:45? I only ask because Tremors is one of my favorite movies.

I'm not really sure. That one is a 1966. I talked to the guy briefly and he's modified quite a bit on it. Give him a call if you're really curious: 619-857-9376

It's not really pretty in the classic sense, but here is my BILs 1967 Jeepster Commando, which we used to help us clean up brush at my folks' place today.
