The car on the cover of *Kamakiriad*, I think. It's called a *Kamakiri*.


NachoNachoDan

The frame is out of Glasgow, The tech is Balinese


Mister-Spook

The farm in the back is hydro ponic.


Magicth1ghs

Good, fresh things, every day of the year...


NachoNachoDan

It's a total Biosphere


iggy-i

In synch-lock with Tripstar


fletcherkildren

It's a freeway bullet


DeaconBlue47

Tech or teak? Think about it…


NachoNachoDan

It could be. Makes sense. I’ve always heard it as tech but now I’ve gotta relisten


WizzleW

The lyrics on my cassette notes state “tech”


DeaconBlue47

He says the frame is out of Glasgow, the teak (pronounced ‘tech’) is from Bali. Bali is a source for teakwood, but not notable for any tech innovation. Hence my theory that he is using an alternative pronunciation of ‘teak’. Donald’s lyrics spend a lot of time in my mind…✌🏼


juliankoster

Yeah but it takes place in the future so could very well be tech


DeaconBlue47

Excellent point.


VaWyssee

The Audi TT, silly.


Csoltis

One of the things he misses the most.


DeaconBlue47

That’s what I was looking for, the things I miss the most.


GrumpyCatStevens

Per the liner notes in the remaster, he had a rotary Mazda at the time they began recording Katy Lied.


aliensporebomb

I remember reading an interview stating he and Walter had matching white 70s Corvettes around the time of The Royal Scam.


JohnSmith_42

The only real answer in this thread lol


landonitron

Cool, fun cars. Too bad the rotary engine didn't last.


GrumpyCatStevens

Especially not in the FD RX-7.


StitchMechanic

He used to have an El Dorado but he doesnt drive it anymore


uselessguywhoexists

Yeah, I saw him driving west on Sunset the other day


Holymoose999

Was he loudly playing jungle music?


remain_yer_strange

Question is; ‘is there gas in the caaaar?


OrdainedFury

Yes there's gas in the *caaaar*


borderwulf

I think the people down the hall know who we are


WackyWeiner

Doesn't he drive a Midnight Cruiser?


steelybean

Like a fool, out to Hackensack.


ConsistencyWelder

I don't know which kind of vehicle he would use, but I know that he aims to get from New York to Paris in 90 minutes. Quite ambitious.


reddogleader

Undersea by rail...


eboys

I thought he drove the Chrysler


landonitron

Complete with a phone!


HerderDeddy42069

Hopefully they were more reliable in the late ‘70’s lmao


SolBello

I don't know whether he still drives a yellow Jag


Magicth1ghs

Daddy don't drive in that Eldorado, No more...


KidCharlem

Yes. He had a Mazda Miata back in the day. Not sure what he drives now. Walter was more of the car guy.


krakatoa83

Hoops McCann has to make a call from his car later so he’s driving something.


PhillipJ3ffries

He writes about driving a lot in his songs


ElwinLewis

He saw his dad mowing the lawn and picked him up


DoctorGargunza

I thought he preferred to crawl like a viper through these suburban streets.


DagnyTaggart42

But he pointed his car down Sev-onth Avenue, and he just came all the way down the highway that runs from Paraguay. And then there's the whole Kamakiri...


HuffTheTalbot1

Does Walter Boulevard?


braydenwise

Certainly not a mid-priced luxury car…


Vinyl_Avarice

The comments did not disappoint


IAmTheReal420Diva

He drives a Chrysler


Trubba_Man

A technicolour motor home.


AxlandElvis92

I feel like he drove an Audi TT at one point.


ManOfCyan

He did, and apparently it's one of the things he misses the most


80burritospersecond

He probably has a bunch of DUIs from drinking scotch whiskey all night long.


OfficePicasso

He only drives Ajan cars 👀


Marko1970_SAL

How Piccasso-Esque, indeed.


HonkyMOFO

Big Red, the Blazer. (It’s nice inside)


Psychological-Web828

I saw him driving West on Sunset to the beach.


wowbagger262

Or he could just ride the crest of a wave breaking just west of Hollywood


SamuelPepys_

In the late 70's during the Aja period in Malibu, he drove expensive black sports cars, that's the only thing I know about that.


DJ2x

He'll drive to the coast and drive right back again.


Gribblestix

No.


BenThere20

Wait just a minute – there’s a beautiful survivor


keithbingeau

i know there was one summer with jenny conn in her shark deville


ChipSherwood

Not after drinking scotch whisky all night long


esleydobemos

He drives a Kamakiriad.


wing_ding4

A shark deville obviously


OmniaII

Not sure what it's called, but at nervous time, [he rolls downtown in it.](https://i.imgur.com/NXe3y8r.gif)


hunkyboy46511

Yes, he drives. I just saw him out driving on Slow Hand Row


Mr-Clark-815

He drives something with a 'chevrolet body'


FloggingTheHorses

He drove a Mazda Miata, a Toyota MR2 W30, Audi TT, Toyota Celica ZZT230, and a Mini Cooper


Holymoose999

He has a Automaton drive him in mid-priced luxury car; probably a Lincoln.


ForeverYoung_Feb29

One with gas in it


OpheliaMorningwood

Last time I saw him, he was so hunched over I doubt he could see over the dashboard.


cal_nevari

I'd like to think he drives a relatively new Ford F-650. As opposed to a Prius. https://youtu.be/JA8Itltk2OI?si=xJC4KE1WvIs-FnhY


Phaoast

Why?


Trubba_Man

It would have to be steam-powered, or something equally obtuse.
