Look like AI slop
No it doesn't
If it's not AI, then explain why the driver's side is on the wrong side of the car!
What do you mean? It is clearly on the right side of the car!
It takes me time to find a source but I’ve got it
TL;DR I’m wrong, there’s other cool photo in there

Kudos on your attitude. We need more people like you on the interwebs.
Where do all these confidently wrong people come from?
So many things look off in the picture, like the way he holds the vinyl
So many? I don't see any telltale AI signs. I guess pushing it in without touching the surface can look weird, but the face, the clothing, dashboard, background, and lighting all look normal to me.
It isn't. It seems to be a Auto Mignon system by Philips Norelco, like it's shown in the last section of this video.
Which is itself such a bot-sounding reply to anything that you don't believe or like. I guess it's the newest "/r/thathappened". A more contributing and open post would be "wow, is that true?" and maybe even look it up to verify.
Posting a pic saying « this happen » is no proof at all anymore. So I’ve search and found nothing 2-3 times before stumbling upon the right words combo that prove that I was wrong.
And yet a search for automotive record player quickly returns many results
This is a rabbit hole I went down a couple of years ago, true but short lived. My '72 Dodge Dart only had "am jams"
You should look into how to do a reverse search on Google images.
Looks right to me. A little low res maybe.
