Down on the Junkyard, Volume I

Welcome to the start of another running series that will occur every few months; which I shall call "Down on the Junkyard" because that's what it used to be called on Jalopnik, and I liked it. My junkyard of choice is the Ecology Pick-a-Part in Oceanside, California. Truth be told, the majority of the cars there were shitty old Big 3 sedans, but there were still some interesting sights.

I honestly had no idea what this was. It looked really neat though.

Show cars are boring.

I wanna see more patina.

Zoom!

A Mazda Protege5 makes a lot of sense as my next car. They are readily available with the correct number of pedals, they handle awesomely, they probably get bitchin-sweet m-p-gizzies (compared to my 4runner anyway), and it has 5 doors! Craigslist investigation: engage.

After the sudden death of my computer, I am returned!

Rejoice!

French car, JDM style

Great moments in rebadging!

I saw a Pontiac G3 at work today. It's an Aveo, but it comes from GM's "excitement" division, so you know it's a fun little car too!

See what I did there?

Late to the hairdresser?

EAGLE!
