I am the suck at this game...

Tried it before. Got one or two. Shameful. :sad3:


Now... If you put up pictures of wheels, and asked what car and year they were from, I could probably do some damage.

I got 7 right, and at least 3 were lucky guesses. But hey, I did spend many of my auto-formative years in Europe! (ask me about 4-bangers :-)

Wow, that's a tough test.

I managed a 13 out of 17. Most of them just by process of elimination.

You could guess "chevy small block" for all of them and do better than that, lol.

I got 8, based mostly on color of engine block...

I'm the guy who, as a child, built all sorts of model kits and didn't bother to assemble the engine, coz you didn't see it when you displayed the car on the shelf.

Had I only seen the error of my ways back then...

You display models with the hood shut? Shameless.

I had a General Lee model, I just built the engine and nothing else.

Now you can also get miniature jackstands and a 1/25 scale mechanic for your pos C4 model.

I have one... He just stands there scratching his little 1/25 scale head because he can't find the engine.

Or release the parking brake.

I got 13 of 17 when I peeped this on the "other" site.

I guess I would be cheating if I took it again and got 17 of 17........
