    This is inspired by the "Last Rides" series from The Truth About Cars:
    https://www.thetruthaboutcars.com/2016/04/last-rides-compilation-album/

    The basic idea is that one person posts the name of a car, and another answers with where and when the car could have been at the end of its useful life, and what it could have looked like.

    Example:

    Poster A: 1969 Ford Mustang fastback - last seen at...


    Poster B: ...a California strip mall in 1985, with a cheap hood intake, mag wheels and matte orange paintjob.

    1982 VW Golf GTD - last seen at...


    Poster C: ...a club in the Polish countryside in 2008, with a set of cheap alloys.

    1977 Ford LTD Landau coupe - last seen at...




    OK, so let's start.

    1976 Toyota Celica - last seen at...
