I found an amusing picture which was recently posted by "Interesting Engineering" It was a disassembled car and all of its pieces displayed to demonstrate the complexity of a typical automobile. But what I quickly recognized is that it was a photograph of an 1985-92 four door MK2 Golf. The comments demonstrated readers astonishment at the myriad of parts necessary to create an automobile. However, my first reaction was not what the original poster had intended. My first thought was that this photograph is not complex at all when compared to a contemporary automobile. There is no ABS, No SRS, Traction control, air bags, HID lights, computers, no keyless entry, and likely no power windows or locks.
Amusingly, I managed to identify virtually every part in the picture. And I'm willing to bet anyone of us on this list could assemble the entire collection of parts and drive that thing away. for a glimpse of the picture, I've posted it in my Google Photo albums which can be found here.
