Just caught a Hash Metro on eBay that I though would be perfect for HK to pick up for a driver. It's aqua with a white top. The only problems are:
1. How can he get in and out...did these cars come with a shoe horn?
2. How can we get in an out to go for a ride?

| I sat in one of these once. Somewhere there's a picture of me in one. Talk about awkward.

I had one of these when I was 15 just about same color scheme. I worked on it and bombed about with my brother on my learners permit. My dad bought it for 15 bucks. I sold it to a guy for $500. He was an old guy. Maybe he got the better deal. Talk about spartan. Ran pretty good though I always used to say it sounded like a sewing machine.

I'd pay to see that picture. Although my stature is not quite as towering as yours, can you imagine both of us trying to drive down the street in one of those? I bet getting in and out is...challenging. Now that's funny.

Guy says its a 53 but Hudson did not badge this piece of crap until late 54 so it probably is a 55.

I still have a headache from reading spew about people modding their cars. I mean man, if you don't know what you're doing, hire a mechanic or leave it alone. If idiots must tinker, they should play with the radio or something non-essential.
Ooop, got off on a tangent. Anyway, you better feel the love or HK won't give you a ride in his Metro.
