And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two?

Someone at GM must have tried to better Henry Ford's comment of the Model T being available in any shade of black. 1953 Corvettes were only manufactured in white.

James Bond's back-up ride. With a hood big enough to use as a tanning bed.
