1/2 price for 1/2 a car....or some kind of flying machine! Makes sense to me! This is at a used car dealer in Lewes, Delaware. I had been wanting to get a shot of this for a couple of years now, so I finally did...on a day when they were closed...just before I left for Ohio. Kind of wacky for Wednesday.

With that propeller it looks like the car is about to fly off from the wall. makes a good shelter from rain too:) Nice find and capture. You will miss that beach and most of all your daughter and cute granddaughter Jimbob.

Very good find Jimbob. Perfect one for Wacky Wednesday. Hope however that you don't use this car for traveling back to Ohio.
Would be a long journey, lol.

What an eye-catching ad for a used car sales lot, Jimbob. I don't blame you for waiting for them to close as the sales people can be rather aggressive! They probably would have tried to sell you the VW since you were taking pics of it. Indeed, a super WW post!

I wondered what happened to Herbie, JimboB.
The stop sign looks good in the scene.
He was not going half fast when he hit the building.

buying half a car is like buying half a parachute jimbob, now i suppose if you just jumped half the distance out of the plane you might be ok...makes sense to me! then logic say with the car your only going to get half way to work? you would save alot money in gas :)

its a great find you have here.. and a colorful pic! thanks for the chuckle this morning.

That's a great marketing gimic and attention getter as well!!! Its one of those landmark sites you pass along the road and when you are in that area always look to see if its still there. Great post for Wacky Wednesday!!! p.s. I would suppose the car is "half fast.":-):-):-):-):-):-):-):-):-)

Jimbob - Half a car isn't worth a penny more than half price, though the propeller drive mechanism has to be worth something extra! Great find!

Wonderfully funny! People don't advertise creatively much anymore. This is a gem, and a great shot.
