I was just gonna say that! Who could ever forget the Jaray Streamliner!

It was a legend! An icon! Ahead of its time! a design for the ages! It changed everything...yet it changed nothing. Not only is its form etched into the hearts and ethos of the twentieth century, but...Oh, wait! I was talking about something different. Never mind.

Well, _I_ certainly didn't forget the Jaray ..... because I never remembered it in the first place ! Some questions, though : is the little flip-open window in the front to pay tolls on the highway ...... or to ask for help when your Jaray flops on it's side when turning a corner at 11 miles per hour ?

I always preferred the Jaray 2dr. sedan over the other body styles.

This one has factory air too I see....nice!

A set of Cragars would really set this car off.
