--- Quote from: BenRG on 31 Jul 2020, 05:09 ---I'd like it if May's chassis is one of the few of that model in anything resembling its original construction state. This is only because it's been left unserviced or inadequately serviced for so long and it thus has most of its original components still. When word gets out just what this chassis is, a collector (either institutional or private) comes forward and asks to purchase the chassis once she's done with it. This adds even more money to the pot. However, May notes that she is far more touched by the irony that the 'junker' that had been virtually her second prison is actually a valuable antique!
She adds that she will never go to the museum to see it. "A bit too weird to see my own naked, mounted corpse propped up in a display case for the education and edification of generations to come!"

A collectable antique is a '54 Corvette, not a '78 Chevette, and May's chassis is the Chevette. In fact, in the profile comic that Jeph made about May, it refers to the name of her chassis as ReformChassis, which suggests it was originally designed to be used for former prisoners.

Do the plaques read: "This is how to NOT make a car."
EDIT: typo fix, 'car' not 'care'
Perfectly Reasonable:
I predict that May will be insufferably giddy for a week (see Charlotte) before finding new stuff to snark about.

Well, yeah. They're rare, because the factory was so inefficient they only made a dozen of them to begin with. :-D
