Werr ret's see, we had the eh, we had the Fairrane.
Then the u-joints went out on that and the bushings and then your mother wanted to trade it in on the Tornado, so we got the Tornado.

Threw a rod, sord it to Jacobs for a hundred dorrar.

Overhead cam, duar exhaust.
You know I had, ret's see I had, four Buicks, roved them arr.

Now your Uncre Emmet, werr he drives a Thunderbird, it used to berong to your Aunt Everyn.
Now, she ruined it, drove it to Indiana with no gear oir.
That was the end of that!
Sord that Cadirrac to your mom.
Your mom roved that Caddy.
Independent rear suspension,
Randau top, good tires.
Gas hog.
