Seriously, some of these are actually super cool.
Especially the one about the flat-head v8 firing order.

Neat!

I saw several of these, but missed others (obviously).

I did notice that on Flo's V8 diner, the "V8" neon light is one of the earliest "V8" Ford emblems.  Which goes along with the flat hear roof.

Very cool article.  I've watched the first two with the kids countless times and noticed some of those but certainly missed most of them.

Too cool.  :)
Wokeism is nothing more than the recognition and opposition of bigotry in all its forms.  Bigots are predictably triggered.

Very cool!!

I remember reading when the 1st movie came out that they made the eyes of the "cars" match the eyes of the people who are doing the voices and one of the hardest ones to match were Paul Newman's. Tried to dig up that fact now, but had no luck thus far.
