Tires

Wow! Look at the tread pattern on those suckers. Probably influenced by tentacles of an octopus. No need to use the horn --- folks could hear the Hudson coming from a block away.

Surprising condition

The car is surprisingly dirty for a photo shoot. Looks like they just drove it all the way from San Jose.

Guaranteed not to skid

You need Pennsylvania Oilproof Vacuum Cup Tires.
