Hello again. We start this week with a picture of the actual Chrysler from the Love Shack video (it’s a 1965 300 Convertible) followed by the original Chrysler Alpine that Richard would rather take to such an establishment, Jonny’s eventual choices, a 1976 Dodge Monaco Royal Brougham wagon and a Chrysler TC by Maserati, and the not-entirely-safe-for-work meme that inspired all this nonsense. Ahem. Moving on, there’s Vauxhall’s teaser photo for the forthcoming re-born Frontera, a Japanese brochure for the Isuzu Mysterious Utility, the manual shifter in the new BMW Z4 Handshandy, Will Ferrell with a Ford Flex in the movie Daddy’s Home, and a bottle of Angostora Bitters with its badly fitting label. Now, some linkz…

I think of a 1967 Chrysler Newport sedan with a vinyl roof

Joe Brudenell

Hi guys (Johnny may already know as we have spoken about it) we still have 2 Skoda rapids in the family. Owned from new by my gran (93) we have a Y reg red coupe and a 5 speed 1987 coupe. The red one im planning to get back on the road this year. Happy to share any pictures. (Richard is correct about the gear throw. Each gear is a full arm stretch ) 🤣

Andrew Barnes

Chrysler alpine awesome car, 😍

Brendan McAleer

... a Porsch 911. "Argh it's Por-shuh, you're worse than a war criminal!" A war criminal like Dr. Ferdinand Porsh?

In Cake’s 2001 hit ‘Short Skirt/Long Jacket’, the lyrics reference a woman who changes her name from Kitty to Karen, then trades in her MG for a white Chrysler LeBaron (apparently for its reliability and cup holder options). I wonder if this is so that she can gain access to the B52s’ sordid sex barn? A repeating line in the song states that “she’s touring the facility”, so I think it checks out.

I'm off to the Fuck Shed in a Chrysler 2 litre, one of those enlarged Avengers that sold very badly.

Rup (FastAsFunk)

Kinell. The fuck shed is the same make, size and colour as my garden shed 😳 I've not looked up the side of it in years. I'm going to check for a massive cock n balls motif next time I'm in the garden in case it's been hijacked by clandestine doggers...

Rich Tysoe

"What kind of Chrysler is the guy form the B-52s referring to?" was going ot be my question if I ever got chosen to ask a question at an OTLOT... Personally I think it was some sort of k-platform minivan.

Rob Stannard

Feel slightly soiled after touching the Handschalter link. Somehow feel then need for Abarth now, anyone else?

Rob Stannard

Chrysler Alpine has similar smutty backstory for me. As impoverished apprentice 1984-87 me and mate paid petrol for co-worker (goole) to drive us to Hull. Predictably dull journeys lulled to sleep by metronomic tappety thrum. One journey Mr Goole had girlfriend riding shotgun. two guys 'sleeping' in back and g/f *sleeping* with head in driver's lap. The tappets had considerable extra competition until we reached the M18 exit. ( Geordies see Billy Mill roundabout) . 8-)

Brendan McAleer

Perhaps next time S&S can discuss what the Fast Car from the Tracey Chapman song would be. It was written in 1983, and you sort of have to pick something that was affordable *then* not necessarily new. This side of the Atlantic, most votes were for some kinda V8 Oldsmobile.

Michael Hamilton

The fuck shed would need a completely different BFF Johnny if there’s an old Chrysler stuck in it!

Iain Lyons

I think there is a series involving Dario and his famous friends he mooches off. Has an enormous garage with all the cars but lives in a studio apartment. Needing to nip round to friends houses to get by. Today he has a big wash to do and has nipped round to Tom Jones’s house to use his tumble dryer

Darren B McLellan

What's with the lack of engine photos on the rally and replica cars? if the 550 has an "incredible Alfa Romeo Sud Boxer 1750cc engine" then why not show us?

Iain W

Dario had an unofficial biography written about him, called "Dario Speedwagon". I'm now wondering if he lived next to any of Speedwagon and borrowed their pressure washer.

Not directly related to this weeks show but more the last few weeks, I see the Corrs are supporting Shania Twain in Hyde Park this summer. Shania Twain's car history must be good too as I know she's had a few high end cars including a Ferrari 488.

Ben Martin-Denham

Feels like there is a conversation thread around cars referenced in songs, which splits into speculation on generic carr mentions (what could it be?), and specific mentions (What specific model? /Is it worth writing about?)

Some off the top of my head: Corduroy - Mini; Corduroy - e type; Misty's Big Adventure - Intense Blue Kangoo; Cuco - CR-V

Ah, but it can't be new. The whole point of the song is being stuck in a dead-end, so it probably has to be built-not-bought, something that is a few years old but was turned into a fast car - an unlikely hero, over here an old Firebird that's been hopped up etc.

Andrew Jones

You are wrong about the BMW 8 series. I just bought an 840d and it suits me perfectly and there isn't much to compete with it if you're not an old man in Merc, you need 911 style back seat functionality but diesel fuel economy AND you want all the techie self driving/lazer light/comfort seat/Harmon Kardon wizardry which is standard on the 8 but rare options in total on the 5. Plus the 8 series came just before they took away all the buttons and installed huge touch screen nonsense plus your a turn off all the safety bollocks and it stays off forever. I kept my last 535d for ten years and a quarter of a million miles and I will likely do the same with the 840d and by 2034 they will have cracked the flux capacitor motor and I will have avoide BEV's entirely....

That 550 Spyder rep is a Banham, which specialised in rebody lookalikes - in this case on a Skoda, but they also did a Metro-based Audi TT clone. Putting a new body on supposedly made the kit car paperwork easier, but in the Spyder's case gave stretched proportions. Before they moved into kits the company started with soft top conversions in the 1970s, including the original Aston DBS/DBSV8 - the numbers built were small but I saw one once in a garage in Oxfordshire sometime around 1995. Felt like spotting bigfoot, but that was a very stylish car.
