Group B rally, or Can Am from the late 60's early 70's. Maybe a Trans Am movie following Mark Donohue and Parnelli Jones. 

Well, the interior is gorgeous. For $190k I’d hope for an exterior that wouldn’t blend into a shopping mall parking lot so easily. 

I remember when Nissans generally looked better than their equivalent Honda counterparts. Those were the days....

Man, this looks so much better than the Mach E it’s almost embarrassing. I bought a Sportwagen last January and love the thing a lot more than I thought I would in the beginning. Definitely would consider an ID version. 

Fuel injection was a lot more expensive than the literal stacks of Motorcraft 2 bbl carbs they had in the warehouse. Mechanical fuel injection could be a bit finicky to deal with. Even the early turbo 4 Mustangs wouldn’t get fuel injection. I think the first fuel injected Mustangs were the 1983 Turbo GTs, which only…

The CJ Pony parts steering wheel kills any museum piece ambitions. While this car is probably in better shape than most you would have found by 1980, it’s not perfect. It doesn’t have a desirable engine, it’s in the least desirable body style, and in a color scheme that only a cocktail of quaaludes and cocaine could…

Let me guess, they somehow end up in a Klingon ship, which has to go back to 1980's San Francisco to grab a pair of humpback whales?

The brand new 2020 Ford I’d buy would be the Bronco. I perused the configurator and the only option on the GT was paint color. At the very least you’d think you’d have the option of removing the fake grille decal. Hell, they could probably make removing it a $250 option and I bet there would be plenty of takers. 

Yeesh! At almost $15,000 for a set of replacement wheels I’d be avoiding potholes like the plague regardless of how strong the wheels are. With my Mrs. habit of curbing wheels the keys would be hidden well away from her. 

Having short yellow lights, and varying lengths of time from town to town are very important to revenue genera..... I mean public safety.  

I can appreciate the car and the work put into it. You probably couldn’t restore one to that condition for that money, maybe you could. But if I was going into Radwood era German project car hell it would need to be on a Audi Quattro 4000CS.

Probably should have called it a Thunderbolt. It has brand history, and implies electricity and performance. It’s been dormant long enough the younger generation wouldn’t tie it to the Fairlane of old, and the older generation would probably think it’s cool to see the name back.  

Well dammit! I was sure it was going to be Cliff Fett. 

At an Aspark product planning meeting...

One of my storage containers I keep a tool kit, spare belts and hoses, gorilla tape, jumper cables, and recovery gear. About a decade back my dad and I were taking his Bronco “the fun way” from the Berlin-Ichthyosaur park to Reese River valley, then Tonopah, Nevada. About half way through the trail between the park…

My mother in Law has a 6 or 7 year old Hyundai Tuscon. It drives better, and has better fit and finish than the 2 year old Equinox’s we have at work. Sure, that isn’t a direct comparison to the Japanese brands on the bubble, but the Korean stuff isn’t the junk it was at the turn of the millenium. 

We had all but Cool Cat and Buzzy Buzzard when I was a kid. 

For me, it would have to be my flight into Baghdad International Airport in April of 2004 on a C-130 Hercules. At that point I’d been in the military very close to 6 years, so I’d done some stuff and had knew a landing in a combat zone wasn’t going to be routine, but the plane was filled with National Guard troops…

I used to be pretty handy with play doh back in my youth, maybe Workhorse could hire me to make their HVAC controls.
