“Plymouth Valiant”
I tried to resurrect one of those from the dead around ‘87. I recall driving in dense San Jose traffic when the engine was completely silenced by an electrical failure and fluffy white clouds enveloped the car. I could hear the roar of traffic but couldn’t a) start the car or b) see anyting but white clouds out of any window. Quite ethereal, really.
in case anyone is curious about my previous post - the white clouds were billows of smoke coming from the engine compartment. Didn’t smell like smoke (combustion) but it certainly emmanated from under the hood.
