Corvair Monza

It’s Brooklyn, and that’s hipster lingo for something the rest of us won’t understand it’s trite and outdated

that’s why I chose Corvairs as my obsessional vice

the coupe version was the peak of the peak [post E-type of course]

Not to mention absurd repair costs. I sold an Audi recently and vowed to never touch one again. I didn’t even feel that way about anything else that wasn’t a Fiat.

Let’s hope it’s more like Avanti, kept on life support for a decade that nobody expected

given the vector, I’d call that two-dimensional...not that elon deserves more than one

 I wonder if I can run Leisure Suit Larry with this newfangled ‘wind0ws’ thing?

column shifters are even less useful than bench seats and bumper jacks. good riddance.

If they haven’t sold off the rights to some huckster, one valuable commodity that Jaguar owns is the E-Type. Rendered in any medium, made pretty, filled with cheap tech, priced like a Boxster, with the energy of a modern turbo four.....a new XKE would sell like hotcakes......

that only happens when a car depreciates so much that it becomes affordable with the type of young hooligans that get their jollies by packing a car with as many of their hooligan colleagues as it will fit....like the ratty old Cadillac limo my softball team considered investing $600 in to make grand entrances to…

When we were about 12, my friend Steve and I entered a kids fishing tournament, and brought his little sister Andrea along. We both had good luck, with several catches each, and were so good at fishing that day that we didn’t want to pause to have our catches weighed, so handed them off to Andrea to run over to the…

My 2004 WRX needed a third engine [replaced twice under warranty] but none of that showed on its carfax

we won’t have to put up with any of this nonsense when Elon gives us flying cars

thank you. I do the same and have to explain it often

My sister and I had a nice collection of Matchbox cars, with clear preferences as to who got what when mom took us shopping, but that MG with the dog in the back seat was the one car each of us was always trying to win or steal from the other.

It should and would be a golden age for salvage yards stocking hard parts like body panels, suspension components, glass, and rebuildable engines and transmissions, if anybody gave a damn about keeping their (newer) older cars on the road the way we did (and still do) with cars from the 1950's and 60's.

My first car was an inherited 1966 Chevelle Malibu Sport Coupe. No SS, but top of the line trim on a 283 powerglide was sweet enough. But it lacked the kind of street presence I craved. I should have quit with a pair of hijacker air shocks to lift the tail and cherry bomb mufflers for sonic authority, but my…

I’d rather face a tornado in a locomotive than every other vehicle I’ve ever driven, half the houses I’ve lived in and two thirds of the stores I’ve ever worked in.

Not only that, but the Legacy GT and the Outback H-6 were the first Subarus to get the electronically controlled 5 speed automatic (a heavy duty piece designed for their then upcoming SUV). It’s no ZF, but for a slushbox, quite entertaining.
