A few instances where F-bodies appear. Found while looking for old car clips. What do you have?

Amazing HD quality, not.

My 1989 GTA came from this dealership when new. Cool coincidence.

Cool!

It’s crazy how different it was.. the way people dressed, big boxy cars, etc

Now everyone would be walking around looking at phones with earbuds in and all the cars would look like dinner rolls..

Hey man, the instructions even say it's ok... It's 'breathable'. Washing the car every three days was bad enough, pulling the bra added to the job. Not to mention the bra was usually covered in road salt and snirt too.
