I'll bet it has power steering but it doesn't handle very good.

That's funny. A coworker of mine sent me that pic yesterday. He was wondering if we could drop that in his Buick.

We don't know what it's out of, but if he ever gets it started, I'd get the heck out of it's way. Looks like something one of them farm boys from Wisconsin thought up when they got a little bored.
