    Yea, that ad's a gag. But what is that thing? I'm guessing it's a K-Car. Which one, I don't know.

    It's not a K car I don't think but it's one of those beautiful indistinguishable 80's body styles that someone got paid a lot of money to draft up when any 2nd grader on earth has been drawing cars that look exactly like that for more than half a century.

    Hi,

    Looks like a K-car to me, my house came with a wagon in the back 40, had a 2.6 Hemi in it....even then isn't worth 16 grand....

    Regards,
    Jim

    Who would have ever thought this would save Chrysler from bankruptcy?

    Low bidder gets the government contracts. The pictured car is number "4" in some municipality's fleet.
    Chrysler was selling boatloads of them to the feds, states, counties, cities, corporations,

    Us guys:

    On May 10, 1980, United States Secretary of the Treasury G. William Miller announces the approval of nearly $1.5 billion dollars in federal loan guarantees for the nearly bankrupt Chrysler Corporation. At the time, it was the largest rescue package ever granted by the U.S. government to an American corporation.
