judging by the sag in the rear, that car is going to need SLS work too.

John Galt is a famous Ayn Rand character in the book Atlas Shrugged, he invented an ideal and converted major players in the story to get away from supporting communism basically. funny, the quote "who is John Galt" is much part of the story. like saying "say la vive" an extremely long book, but well worth it for the budding capitalist.

John My real name...
