Plot device in a Neil Gamen book IIRC Edit: the book was American Gods and it’s Gaiman. Interesting read…
I’ve got friends in the north near Kirkland Lake, Ontario and they do a similar annual fundraiser with a Volkswagon Beetle - they’ve been doing it for years with the same car. I think it’s for fundraising for their local fire department.
Kenogami & District Volunteer Fire Brigade - Herbie Car Fundraiser
The car is cleaned up and cleared for environmental pollutants and then fished out every spring and repeated again the next winter. I always thought it was funny seeing that old yellow car on the ice.
That’s amazing! Herbie looks to be in decent shape for what he’s been through.
Well, compared to being cut in half with a laser, driving up a skyscraper, fuelled with Irish Coffee, stuffed full of bananas and Mayan treasure…
