Ever wonder what 30+ year old brake fluid looks like?
Wonder no more! With this much rust, I’m kinda worried about the integrity of the lines now. Should be fine right?
Someone near me has a Super 7.
He was hooning it in thru traffic, and drifting around the exit ramp. My god does it look like a riot. I’ve never really followed these or caterhams but clearly I’ve been missing out on maybe the best power to weight ratio fun this side of a crotch rocket.

Craigslist experiment backfired!
So I listed my deceased father’s 89 Crown Vic on Craigslist Friday. If you’ve ever sold anything on craigslist (especially a cheap car), you can imagine the bizzaro nonsense I’ve dealt with all weekend. I listed the car for $1100, but was expecting to get $800. I was offered trades ranging from a 1960's Egyptian Hakim…
Wish me luck Oppo!
My son’s school is taking a field trip to Porsche’s HQ here in Atlanta, BUT they only need 2 chaperone’s.
Alright, what did you guys do to Blondude?
I just realized he hasn’t posted a G’night post in a long while.
4 years later..
I still love this car. My only regret is not getting a sedan.
Yup.. THIS is exactly why I hate taking my car to the dealer
I’ve been putting my Takata recall off for a while now. After getting a dozen postcards with peoples scarred faces, urging me to take action before I’m another statistic, I finally made the appointment. Before I get home I’m greeted with a CEL and “Increased Emissions” message.
Wait..those were my spots!
Must be a full moon tonight?
Ride along with this turbo MR2 as it chases a suspect thru the ATL, after girl is ejected in crash.
WOW

Saw this beauty at Napa Auto Parts.
It's true..sometimes you don't realize how much something meant to you, until it's gone.
My rearview mirror fell off yesterday when I was putting up the sunshade.
Thank you God of Motoring, 2 VERY close calls today.
First, I took my Dad’s 56 TBird out for a shakedown after installing a new carb. Some asshole in a Bro Truck was flying thru our neighborhood at 45 MPH, while looking at his phone. He drifted into the center of the street, and nearly hit me head-on. Thank God I already sorted the brakes. If he hadn’t heard my tires…
Just a truck doing truck stuff..
Took the Lightning to a local sod farm today, and got a pallet of Bermuda. For some reason no stores carry sod past May of each year around here. I would like to personally tell the HOA t̶h̶a̶n̶k̶s̶ to go fuck yourselves for making me do this during the hottest part of summer. I spent my whole summer tending to my…
WTH is going on at Acura?
This is their idea of a refresh.
I just watched my Dad take his last breath this afternoon.
I want to celebrate his freedom from pain, and his life long love of early Thunderbirds. I’ll start by posting a pic of his 56, he never got that last ride. All I needed was a couple more days to sort out the brakes. RIP Daddy.
I forgot how therapeutic wrenching can be..
Yesterday I took a day off from going to the hospice. I feel a little guilty, but at the same time I really needed it. I spent the afternoon replacing the leaking heater core in my dad’s T-Bird. It can now be driven for more than 5 mins. Once I go thru the brakes I just may be confident enough to leave the…
Of happenings..
Yesterday was eventful. I gained another doggo AND another vehicle somehow. I’m supposed to only be fostering the dog, but he’s already attached to me like glue. Some lady made an appointment to put have him put down at the local vet. Apparently she’s going thru a divorce and neither of them wanted him. The vet…
