Clint's car?  
Today I just happened to go past a bookstore and just happened to buy the tie-in comic Fury's Big Week (which I'm going to use most of, and ignore other bits, but anyway). One of the panels had Clint driving a car, and given he got woken up in the middle of the night and told to drive, I'm going to guess that it's actually his.

Also, it doesn't exactly seem like a SHIELD company car...



My question is: anyone have an idea what kind of car it is? I've done some poking about and looking at cars, so my guess is possibly an old Pontiac, or maybe an old Thunderbird, but I'm the opposite of a car person, so I have noooooo clue.

Any ideas?

Ahhh, old American muscle car. SO perfect for Clint. XD

OMG YESSSSSSSSSSSS. SO perfect.



What about an old-school Dodge Charger?

Granted I think the taillights were a little different on later models, but I'm pretty sure there were some late 60's models with those taillights too.

I effing love that possibility b/c that's kind of like the badass James Dean version of classic muscle cars. It's such an unbelievably cool choice-- that's what the bad guy in Bullit drove. This bit of possible!headcanon just makes me all kinds of happy inside.

But also-- could be the GTO. Which is a very cool choice too.

Also, the same car Michael Weston drives in Burn Notice. (And thinking of Michael and Clint discussing classic cars and fucked up families and very dangerous women they love... well hello there, happy place!)

OMG I totally forgot about that!

INORITE! Guh, now I keep seeing SHIELD sending Clint down to Miami for something, and it turns out Michael, Fi, and Sam are working the same guy and there is snark and banter and ALL KINDS OF AWESOME. And in the end, they go get a drink and obliquely talk about the headaches brothers cause and how hot it is that Fi & Nat can kill them with their pinky fingers. I need this crossover like whoa.

I did see a short fic about Coulson (I think; it could have been Fury) offering Michael a job. It was AWESOME.

Yes yes yes yes. I need this in my life. Gah.

I saw one C/N crossover awhile back but now I'm trying to remember the premise. It was a post-movie fic I think where Nat goes searching for Clint, who's laying low. And I think she somehow runs into Michael and Fi? Damn. Now I need to go find this.

(But I so totally need Michael and Clint bro-ing it up now...)

Since AO3's filtering is down, I could only find 3 BN/A crossovers, but I bet there's more. The only I was thinking of is Fishing Job. Unexpected Faces is really cute too--of course Fi would like Nat's shoes!

It was the second one I was thinking of-- I had read the first. Love it!

Gah. We so need some Michael/Clint bro-time....
