Is that a din compatible dash kit I see?

Fuzzbuster was the trademarked brand name for a specific brand of radar detector. It became one of those brand names that becomes generically synonymous with the item, like Frigidaire for refrigerator or Scotch Tape for cellophane tape. That brand name seems to have disappeared at some point.

It’s been replaced by “welded diff” by teenagers with rwd shitboxes.

If women don’t find you handsome, they should at least find you handy!

If I remember correctly, “Gatorbacks” were an actual model of tire made by Goodyear back in the 80's. They were called Goodyear Eagle GT Gatorbacks, and they were considered very desirable by the IROC-Z Mustang GT crowd when I was in high school.

Glasspack exhausts. I’m not sure if it was a brand, or what exactly it meant, but I used to hear the old-school guys talking about “Glasspack” exhausts, and even using the old Google machine now... I still don’t know what it means. I seems to just mean: “Exhaust that exits through the center of the muffler” -- but…

All the carburetor slang is gone (mostly for good). things like 6-pack, double pumper, dual quad, and the rest.

didn’t read the article and posted 3 on the tree, lol

“Mag” wheels... these were huge in the ‘80's.

Reminds me of a friend I had who was an aircraft and powerplant mechanic for a cargo airline. He once remarked to me that they banned forklifts from the tarmac because “they had too many oopsies.”

That’s funny; most people do say ‘nein’ to a Neon.
