THE FLIVVY XYZ PERSONIFIED The finest auto you will ever ride Is the Flivvy XYZ Personified Made exclusively from junkyard parts You'll be amazed at where the price starts From twenty-five to a hundred and fifty Can be paid in full and that is nifty You won't find a better buy Stop by today and give it a try If you are gone an hour or more We hope we don't find you to be next door Trying to get a better deal 'Cause we want you behind the wheel Of our pride and joy, the XYZ Since we think you will plainly see You won't find a finer car Even searching near or far 5 February 2018 For entry into contest sponsored by Kim Rodrigues

Reminds me of a song by Johnny Cash about the Cadillac he made from stolen parts from the Cadillac manufacturing plant..Reads like wining material to me. Way to go..Sara

Sara, that is perhaps the only song Johnny Cash ever recorded that I am not familiar with but I can imagine it was great hit. I had an old '50 Ford that fit the bill. Loved it! Thanks for sharing. You always brighten my day.

Yes, it does, Jan! I had one just about like it as a teenager. It was a '50 Ford that my Dad got from a guy who had left it in his cotton patch. He sold it to Dad for a piddly amount just have it hauled off. Most fun summer I had was with it and 5 of my closest school mates. Loved it!
