Sandie ◊ 2022-08-22 16:05	They're the first type of GSI wheel covers, that and the smaller sidelights make it a bit earlier than the one from last night but 1992 can still be right.
dsl ◊ 2022-08-22 17:53	Agree. It was made before Sept 92 update.

Bux_48 ◊ 2024-12-24 00:44	Now I realize that is an automatic, that would explain why it was a leftover (indeed in the movie it's used by a paraplegic woman)
AleX_DJ ◊ 2024-12-24 12:07	I think this deserves
