    If there was any doubt that we were going through a second Malaise Era, those doubts should be dispelled by the fact that I just passed a Toyota Avalon with a Landau roof package installed. What, the Avalon isn’t ugly enough on its own, someone thinks it needs help?

    In our previous Name That Part, we gave you a part from a bin of bulk parts; unlabeled, undifferentiated, and remarkably affordable! As such, I had to do exactly the same thing as you, in determining what the hell it actually is. As it turns out, Target29 came the closest. It was a power mirror…

    In our last Name That Part, we blatantly used the article for a bit of gratuitous self-promotion. We’d like to say that we’re ashamed of it, but let’s face it, we’re not. it’s the UberBird, and it’s awesome. Okay, maybe it’s not the fastest car on the LeMons track, but it’s beautiful and we love…

    On Friday, Graverobber tied me up and locked me in a freezer so that he could take over Name That Part for his own nefarious purposes. Luckily, he provided me with plenty of Dilly Bars from Dairy Queen, so I didn’t mind too much. I am a little offended that not one of you came…

    Math. Back in high school they told us we’d use it every day of our lives. Not believing them, I spent most of my math classes drawing cars in my notebook and fantasizing about showing them to the girls in the class so they could swoon over my mad car-drawing skills. Eventually, I found that…

    Last time, on Name That Part, I managed to throw strange enough logic at you that I finally made you lose the scent. I’m not sure whether I feel proud of that or somewhat embarrassed.

    In yesterday’s Name That Part, I made the tragic mistake of leading with a photo of our beloved Saucy Minx. As such, nobody was actually paying any attention to the actual part involved. Which doesn’t matter, because I wasn’t paying attention either.
