{"product_id":"lowest-bidder-parts-cap","title":"\"Lowest Bidder Parts - Still Running\" Vintage Washed Cap","description":"\u003cp\u003eMom tapped the dashboard before turning the key outside the supermarket. 'Just get us home,' she told the car. Paper grocery bags leaned against each other on the back seat. She'd bought the cheapest part that would keep it moving, and she wasn't apologizing for it. That is the idea behind it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe line works because 'Lowest Bidder Parts' tells you what the repair cost, and 'Still Running' tells you it worked. Anyone who has kept an old car alive on a tight budget reads it and nods. So does anyone who recognizes a few bargain parts in their own aging body. The drawn engine and hanging tag make the joke plain. It is not a lecture or a complaint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0675\/7682\/4041\/files\/design_lifestyle_df1af285-1d1d-4cbe-868d-e9ce87e0a9bc.png?v=1793443606\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWorn in like an old engine:\u003c\/b\u003e Premium washed denim fabric gives the cap a soft, broken-in vintage feel.
