Anyone up for composing some haiku inspired by project cars? Here's one to get things started:

Crack in engine block

Pull the old three fifty out

New power beckons

Note: Putting it in preformat tags, like this: <pre>haiku</pre> will let it show up like a paragraph. Or it should - now it doesn't seem to be working.

Rust lurks under paint

Bondo hiding many sins

Pretend it's not there...

"Why do you do this?"

He asked, incredulously.

"I don't know," I said.

I can spend thousands

Making my car go slower.

Curse you, evil PAX.

Rusty bolt stuck fast
Fist smacks sheet steel when wrench slips
Where did I throw it?

Downshift into third.

Revs perfectly matched to speed.

No one can beat me.

Engine hoist sinks through asphalt

I fumble to overcome the cracking pebbles

The anchored come-along wins again

Brand new impact wrench
Makes easy work of bolts
Don't use on oil plug

Rebuilt the engine
Everything torqued to spec
Five left over bolts

A little socket

Fell and rolled out just out of reach

Just like the last one
