Got something to say, but it's not classic related? Here's the place to discuss. Also includes the once ever-so-popular word association thread... (although we've had to start from scratch with it - sorry!)

No, you're not losing your mind. Probably. That right there is an eBay listing for a 100+ year old, full size stuffed zebra. Yes, ZEBRA! I've a good mind to ask the actual dimensions as I'm not a zebrologist, so don't know what is meant by "full size", but trust me, if that fits in a Toyota bB (it will, if I take the hot tub and the dance floor out first..), then I'd give the zebra house room.
But why list it in eBay's classic car section? Could the advertiser be having a giraffe?
By the way, what's black & white and eats like a horse? Yeah, OK so that joke gets its telegram from the Queen soon..
J "Home is where you park it", so the saying goes. That may yet come true..
Sorry about that, I just couldn't resist the thing.
(No, sadly I didn't, but oh how I wish I'd taken the plunge. I mean to say; who wouldn't want their very own dead zebra)?..
As luck would have it, the zebra is back on eBay, but now it's in the appropriate category instead of being listed as a classic car! No flies on that seller eh.

You could argue it is a classic mode of transportation. I have seen people riding zebras so you can see the "logic" in their origional choice of catagory
Understeer: when you hit the wall with the front of the car.
Oversteer: when you hit the wall with the back of the car.
Horsepower: how fast you hit the wall.
Torque: how far you take the wall with you.
Haven't you ever been to a circus John?
If you want a more practical one you can keep, google "zorse".

Wow! What an absolutely beautiful animal they can be:
Sadly though, a living example would have to fight the cat for rug space in the living room and I couldn't subject any living creature to that sort of ordeal.
