Ultra rare 1968 4 wheel drive Corvette!! This one takes the cake for the highest ride height I have ever seen. It was on BaT as a no reserve and sold for $22,500.

Definitely a rare car with an even rarer option: F70x14 WSW Radial Tires. Ford started offering them as an option on their 1967 cars. They were not a big seller. So to see that someone ordered them on a high performance car is very surprising. The Goodyear Polyglas RWL tires currently on the car came standard on the 428 CJ GT Mustangs.

Finding a set of period correct radials IMO would probably be an impossible endeavor.

There is a filter you can place on the lens of a camera called a STAR filter. It adds the star like look to any highlights, as here with the lights. The filters come in different variations that change the effect from subtle (like this one) to wild

This probably isn't a shock, but California rolls didn't originate in Japan. The American favorite actually came about in the 1960s at Tokyo Kaikan, a restaurant in the Little Tokyo area of Los Angeles. As the story goes, the chef at the restaurant was looking for a replacement for tuna and used avocado and cooked crab to give the roll seafood flavor without actually using raw fish, which most Americans were not comfortable with yet.

Another sugar-filled ingredient that's never found in Japanese pantries is teriyaki sauce. This thick brown sauce is often ladled over chicken, steak, vegetables, and anything else Americans can think of, but in Japan, it's not used. Matsuo explains that it's too sweet for the Japanese palette. "In Japan, teriyaki is a term used for the process of roasting chicken or pork, and very seldom includes a sauce."

In America, hibachi restaurants are a staple in most communities. Diners sit around a flat griddle with other people they do not know, while a chef prepares their meal of steak, shrimp, chicken, vegetables, fried rice, noodles, and other American favorites. But in Japan, the hibachi-style grill is used to make okonomiyaki and monjayaki, which are savory pancake dishes made from wheat flour batter. The two dishes have toppings and other ingredients mixed in like cabbage and sprouts to make a more filling meal.

In Japan dishes are made with very little spice. So any sushi rolls that have ingredients like spicy tuna, spicy yellowtail, or spicy crab aren't served. "There is very little spice in Japan," says Horiuchi. Instead, Japanese people prefer to eat sushi with just a few ingredients such as seaweed, raw fish, and vinegared rice.

American sushi is often served with a ton of extra ingredients like spicy mayo and eel sauce. In Japan, the sauces are frivolous ingredients that are not added to sushi. Extra toppings like avocado, mango, crunchy bits, and tobiko are also never added in Japan.
