The Sloppy Jalopy is Oscar's junk car featured on Sesame Street. The car has a sign painted on the side: "Oscar's Taxi Service: Ride At Your Own Risk". The car was seen on the show as early as season 12. The Jalopy was the featured element of the street story in a 1993 episode, as Oscar reminisces about his time with the car. Oscar takes Bob to Grouchytown in the car in a 1989 episode. In a 2006 episode of Sesame Street, Oscar and Grundgetta drive the car in a race. In the 2009 storybook, Love, Elmo, Oscar is fixing up the Sloppy Jalopy to use it as a taxicab.
