After finishing the second season of Supernatural, I am sad to report that my favorite character really isn't Sam or Dean, although Dean's a close second. It's the damn car. Yes, the girl who doesn't drive is in love with a black '67 Impala.
raloria has a glorious tribute to the
Metallicar with all the reasons to love it, including that lovely moment in "Bloodlust".
My uncle the classic car nut would be so terribly amused. Even more amusing he restored an Impala many years ago. He's an authenticity nut so he scoured all the want ads and car magazines for the right parts. I even snapped two pictures in the garage that I dug up from posterity. I'm pretty sure she's a 1962 model, but don't quote me on that. Given the color and his personality, I've joked that it's more of a Jan & Dean car than a Metallicar. He had a thing for oldies music as well. Now he's a Civil War enthusiast.
I haven't actually watched the first season yet. Netflix brought the first disc yesterday. I'm hoping to be caught up when the show returns. I'm sure I'm going to lose something by watching them in reverse order. But I never did approach my shows in any sane manner.
