Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for April 12, 2024

And while Gordie contemplates that, Phyllis across the street is calling the Ballard Street Hardware and Psychological Hospital(their slogan is ’We’ve got nuts’)to come and pick him up…again.

I question his ability to park in such a tiny bit of space.

Gordon is probably the one rare person that does NOT get phone calls about an extended warranty.

From the looks of those tires, Gordon needs an alignment.

Gordon appears to be a man who enjoys puttering around in his garage.

Better he should ask himself if he’s sane.

As long as he doesn’t have a screw loose, he is worthy.

No shame in falling in love with that curvy beauty inside.

Will the car let Gordon park next to it? I forsee a call to AAA coming up.

Gordon is in the midst of another auto body experience.

Maybe he is, maybe he isn’t. Only time will tell.

I think Gordon’s had a little too much “fuel”…

No doubt about it, that bumper alone costs a bundle, then there’s the fenders, and the battery, worth quite a bit when you add it all up.

Gordon will not make into the garage…..the guys with the white coats are right behind him!!

Dang! He’s stylin’!

Among his friends, Gordon is known as “Edsel”.

Good morning Balladeers and Tigressy!

Hi Shika!

Gordon continues to eschew the standards of others, preferring to measure his own value by one question alone: Is he road-worthy?

oh man…good thing this strip is only single panel…hate to see what happens next!

It appears Gordon’s auto-immune therapy has yet to fully take hold.

Freshly released from the Ballard Street Chiropractic Clinic & Body Shop, the freshly-cautious Gordon takes a new tact with Christine…

Gordon is clearly a long-time, star-struck fan of Car Wars.

Every April 12th, Gordon enjoys re-creating one particular episode of My Mother the Car, long lost to posterity… but not his posterior.

A wise man always suits up in full kit before doing any battle of wits with KITT.

… or is that a “wide” man?

Gordon would later go on to be one of the most popular displays at the Detroit Auto Show.

If you think you are going crazy, you are not.

First, he’ll have to get Studebaker to punch his ticket.

Every Friday, Gordon “GT” Keeble dolls up for the weekly Ballard Street Motorheads Club outing with Gustav “Beetle” Bailey, Carmen “Ghia” Olsen, and Ben “The Thing” Grimm.

You’re worthy of The nut house, Gordon.

Worst Transformer ever.

Gordon hopes to be featured in Motor Trend at a future date.

you wouldn’t think it to look at him, but gordon’s favorite band is motörhead…

Gordon takes his Transformers cosplay seriously

Is that an Austin-Healey 3000 in the garage ?
