I’d pay money to see Buzz Aldrin deck Vladimir Markin.

It’s cool and it’s only about 20 miles from where I live, but it’s just a little too much cash for what it is. I’d go as high $15K for it as it looks clean underneath (a big issue in these parts) and it is pretty rare even though I’m not feeling the color. Sadly a CP for me.

Gunny would have been proud of his throw.

When I took my first driver’s test in New York state (Suffolk Co, Long Island) in 1972, at the end of the test the test administrator told me that I put the car on one of the stop lines and failed, but if I gave him $20 I would pass. (My 16-year old self would never have had 20 bucks in the wallet, and screw him…

If you have an older Jeep, if something does happen to the old 4.0L I-6, just drop another one in. As other people have mentioned though, the frame generally rots out before the drive train gives up, especially here in the Northeast US. My current I-6 motor (in a WJ) has 130,000 miles and it’s just broken in. I had a…

If there was ever a poster child for CP cars, this is the one.

How do you like the diesel GC? At some point, I would like to find a used one when my current 11 year old GC finally succumbs.

Dear Land Rover Heritage: Please start making new bulkheads (firewalls) for Series Land Rovers ASAP. There are a couple of Series IIs near me I could get for cheap, but I know the bulkheads are rusted out and they are unobtanium in these parts.

I love the whole idea of this car, and as a wagon lover I would own it... if it was about 5-6 thousand dollars cheaper. I sadly give it the CP.

I wish I had the cash and the space. I have lusted after a P1800ES since I saw one in the local Volvo showroom down the street from my high school. I've come close a couple of times but never been able to actually get one.

When I was a child in the 60s, my parents had a 1953 Buick Roadmaster. It was a big black and chrome monster, built out of leftover battleship iron. I remember sitting in the back seat, up on the center armrest so I could see out the front window (yes in the days before seat belts, car seats, etc) and thinking I was…

While past experiences don't always equal future outcomes, and derivation from a small sample is meaningless, I probably still would not buy a Subaru.

The design of those hats come from the old Soviet military design for officers, though I think they've puffed it up a lot more than the Sovs did. Some of the other military guys there are wearing the ushanka, the furry ear flap hat, which you see in most cold weather climates.

What a great idea Doug! I am going to start buying up airplane drink carts, put Hayabusa motors in them and sell them. Since my brother lives in Florida, it shouldn't be difficult. Woot! What could possibly go wrong?

These stories are always amazing, but Kaye Meloni and Dave Amino are my new heros!

That's a treacherous bridge in the winter for sure, along with the Ogdensburg-Prescott bridge which has those fun high winds and steel deck; I always hated taking my motorcycle across it.

I had a '70 that was imported from Italy. '66 was a very good year for cars, I'd even say 64-66 was a great time for cars — there's certainly many I would own in that period.

I owned an Innocenti Mini Cooper with the 998cc engine. It was great fun!

I've owned a DS and a SM; the SM's tire change procedure works exactly the same as the DS.

Anyone who's ever seen Ballmer's "monkey boy" dance is not surprised by this at all. That said, he's having a good time and gives precisely zero fucks what anyone thinks, which is a nice place to be.
