Now this is a Frankmobile!

I wonder if I could drop a 2.5 turbodiesel into this baby.

Not quite sure it's what I had in mind when you mentioned "Frankmobile"

I remember seeing one of these in 1968. They had several of them and one of them broke down during a tour.

So they left it on a parking lot for several days. Unguarded.

And people could just walk up and check it out. It was parked right on a busy street. If I recall it was on Park Row at S. Collins in Arlington, Texas.

Back then this was not the best part of town.

If one drives wreckless in a weinermobile would one yell out "hey weiner" at the driver or the other weiner word for bad driver.

My wife won't let me say weiner in front of the grandkids. No fair!
