Default Corvette Wannabe?

Here's another Corvette wannabe at the County Corvette Toy Drive today:


Then there was this mid '70s Dodge Aspen coupe dragster lined up with the race cars. This takes me back - my first car was a 1977 Dodge Aspen coupe. I haven't seen one in years. Now I need to go dig out pics of my old "Silver Bullet."

What's the matter with you people? I was joking!
Don't you know a joke when you hear one? HA-HA-HA-HA




Irony - the use of words to convey a meaning that is the opposite of its literal meaning, as in "A Ferrari is a Corvette wannabe."
