My father use to say this limerick about an Austin.

I only rember the first lines, There once was a man from Boston who bought himself a fine austin.

I think the rest was a little rough for a young mechanic such as myself, Let me know if its too much to post on this site.

Thanks, Mark

There once was a man from Boston,

who drove around in an Austin.

He had room for his ass

and a gallon of gas,

but his b**ls hung out

so he lost 'em!

Ah yes,

Now I remember this little gem of good taste! It was one of many my former boss (late sixties, early seventies) carried about in his considerable memory of off color humor. Thanks for bringing that back!!

LOL!Humour with a car evebtually taking the shape of a fable,i think is the best advertisement and tribute to any car for its excellence.

Although yours is a tad 'salty' of a limerick, it not as 'salty' as others I've heard in my checkerd past!  Though not related to the subject of L.B.C.'S, it did remined me of a 'clean' little poem that my Pop would recite on occasion while working on his old Ford F-150:

A little spark.

a little coil,

a little gas,

a little oil,

a chunk of tin,

a bit of board,

put it together,

you've got a Ford!

My apologies to all you Ford owners!
