Why?
In this pairing, the Corvair is a little too run-o-the-mill; gotta go with the with the Caravelle. Bonus is it's not a Plymouth Caravelle (but then again it probably wouldn't be here, would it.)
Those goofy Frenchmen; three-across seating? I guess wider is better, if Pontiac commercials have any credibility.
Recently I ran across an older Caddy hearse somewhere on the net (cannot remember where) that someone built up; it would run a 12 sec. (or better?) quarter mile. They likened it to running times like that in a Mustang with a boat in tow.
Tell us more about that Dodge Decepzione. Please? With photos and drivetrain illustrations?
I read about an outfit that had plans to convert certain types of garbage into oil... years ago. Changing World Technologies. Their website hasn't changed much at all in four years. Why haven't we heard anything more about that technology?
Man, the one time my hometown hits Jalopnik, and it's this. I'm so ashamed.
How the heck did the Honda 1300 get in there. Shouldna been in the Fantasy Garage to begin with @Bumblebee: yes, it's rare and wonderful in lots of ways, but does driving a Honda 1300 give you that same feeling in your gut that driving a Veyron would? I doubt it. Let's kick it out on it's butt. Respectfully, of…
One cool feature that the Ramblers have that probably should be mentioned; shove the front bench seat forward and the back folds down to meet up with the back seat. You end up with a flat expanse as wide as the Rambler and about 5 feet long.
Yikes! Forget about yesterday's finned Benz, that is my dear departed Granny's Rambler! (or the same model anyway.)
Tough call between the Vallelunga and the LM002; the Vallelunga (what does that mean in English anyway?) is butt-ugly, and the LM002 looks like a Hummer knockoff. I ended up voting for (against?) the LM002.
Moeller has been running the biggest scam of the century with his AirCar thing. He usually comes up with some grand press release when money is tight and he needs attention/investor cash. I seriously doubt he'll ship even one of these machines; something like "unforeseen liability issues" will likely pop up at the…
Wow; so little love for the wee-dub. The only thing that would keep me from choosing that over the Benz is a rusted floor.
He's got no rear windows, yet he wears snowmobile goggles on his run down the dragstrip?
55 years old? Why is that a surprise? Think about it; he was a teenager in the '60's & in his mid-20's in the '70's. The guy cut his teeth on the V8-powered rear-drive cars you youngsters drool over, and was hooning before all y'all were twinkles in your daddies' eyes.
Good heavens... 10's with the front end four feet off the ground! That takes some cohones.
I'll second the Datsun F10. Ugly defined.
Papercutninja: I had similar thoughts on the name, but it ought to start with an "E" to stay in line with the rest of Ford's SUV's. Maybe Escabronc or Escaloco?
How about posting snipers in the towers and signs saying jumpers will be shot.
Another favorite is the Hill-Holder on manual-shift Subarus.
