I have always felt a connection, not only to my hobby cars, but my everyday driver. One day it hit me. 90% of a car is manufactured from metal, which is minerals from rocks, which I feel, as you mentioned, have a spirit all their own. So it's not so "weird" to think and feel a car has a spirit(s) since it is of an earthly matter. I recently sent one of my old cars to her final resting place, a friend of mines' junk yard. I felt ok, as it was someone I knew taking her away. And the evening before she left, I sprinkled salt water (made from melted snow, sea salt and charged by the Moon) on her and thanked her for her many, many years of service and fun. Btw, I love wagons too. Have always had one as my main ride or a hobby car :>) Peace and Cheers, Chet I am so glad you mentioned cars.
