They still sell tons of these for use on top of 4x4s for camping while on Safari... so you don't get dragged off (and eaten) by a lion or tiger in the middle of the night!

Most of those car top rigs are rather expensive...

It's scary when you start making the same noises as your coffee maker.

I like the old Checker Cab. My cousin used to have one in high school, man, you could fit a lot of drunk 18 year olds in one of those things!! 8)

In high school I worked for a local ice cream place. This was in Kalamazoo Mi - home of Checker motors. The president would come by every so often with a 6 door checker marathon - each kid got to sit by the door - no middle seats.
