Yesterday, photos surfaced of Kim Jong-il’s final ride and it was not exactly what we were expecting. The evil, American hating, totalitarian dictator rolled to his final resting spot on the roof of a 1976 Lincoln sedan. The cars were apparently used when his pop died and was carted off, so the regime thought it fitting to bring them out again. According to various reports we have read, the Lincoln that carried the coffin is actually armored. Apparently the tell-tale is a visible chrome frame around the top of a lowered front window in one of the photos.
We have no idea how much fuel the big 460 chugged while rolling along in the funeral parade, but with resources as scarce as they are in North Korea, that single car may have put the whole place under a national fuel shortage. Depending on how well it has been kept up, we are really feeling bad for the car behind it because those guys were probably sucking fumes from a pig rich big block for the whole length of the parade.
The North Korean media which make the followers of Jim Jones look like casual fans noted that the snow storm that blew blinding levels of the white stuff around during the parade was evidence that the dead former leader was still able to control the weather. Yeah…
Here are a couple of screen captures from the funeral parade:
OK this is just me I’m sure…
But in the bottom,coffin,picture the front of the car looks like it has down cast rolling eyes and the driver side walker’s feet create a tongue sticking out….
just saying….

I like the little green jeep-like vehicle. I don’t know what it is, but I like it.
Hey Ermott..that green military vehicle,is a Mercedes Gelendewagen..built from 79 till…i think they still make them.
Love fruitloops the dictator apparent holding the car with a handkerchief. Macho Macho not.
Im thinking a giant picture of myself would look great atop my daily driver.
