the band, yes
but their mode of transportation?
I wish there was a time machine so we can take Iron Maiden from the 70's and show them a setup of concert now.

I saw the Powerslave tour '85 and was definitely impressed with their stage design and lights. Great detail all around all in a Egyptian inspired theme.
The venue got totally trashed by the audience though.
Police in Norfolk, UK, stop driver in "most un-roadworthy car I’ve ever seen":
Yup, the back left tire is flat, and that is a wrench for the steering wheel and a somewhat collapsed metal bucket for the seat.

I've seen worse.
Minnesota doesn't have inspections; presumably because most cars rust out before they can become mechanical hazards like that.
Most.

Basically all cars have power steering.

To be fair, that isn't that far off.

good lord, look at that lineup for fantasy island
Chances are the same lineup was on the Love Boat the previous week.
I remember the very first episodes of Fantasy Island were mysterious and creepy then it just became dreck.

Most.
I've seen worse as well... South Carolina also does not have inspections. We also have little to no rust issues, at least up here in the mountain-ey bits.
I have seen, on several occasions,an individual driving a red Ford ranger pickup with:
- No doors
No windshield
No rear glass
No hood
No fenders
No bumpers
No bed
No front grill
Harbor Freight or similar tractor headlights, taillights & turn signals, all of which appear to be held on with bailing wire

I guess the cab is still there, so the roof is red.

Actually there is: it is a support beam for the building.
Normally such are hidden from view by being inside of walls USUALLY between units. The condo designers declined to design these units to hide this.
BTW: that condo WAS recently sold.
of course it's a support beam
no explanation WHY they built the kitchen so awkwardly around the beam and why someone with a million bucks in their pockets would put up with it.

San Francisco.
They built it that way because it's a retrofit to an existing building, and somebody bought it because SF.

LOL. Yup also had one. Thought Mom was going to kill me and my brother, with those pesky discs ending up everywhere. Eventually we were not allowed to use them in the house.
