I like your idea - but I still have a hard time believing a Fiero chassis with at Chevy V8 really be all that much fun at the track, particularly given all the mods that had to be done to fit the body.

Sorry, can't do it.

Very nice!

This looks really nice, and it appears he put a lot of work into it - but the description still has a few big question marks in it. And $6500 is just too much for an 18 year old project that still has problems to solve.

Hmmmm... I found this info, with a useful pic:

A friend has an older S8; it's an awesome car.

Very interesting. I poked around that area using various graphic mapping tools; it's hard to tell where things were in 1927. Are there recent pictures of the building originally used for the construction of the Spirit of St. Louis? Thanks for sharing!

Also my first thought: A friend had a similar Volvo with the push-button overdrive. Though you effectively drove it as a 5-speed...

Yes, Lindbergh's plane was built in San Diego - but by Ryan Airlines.

No it wasn't. The one in the St. Louis airport is a replica.

My son plays hockey - and I've seen ice rink glass take amazing hits from a variety of objects with no sign of damage.

That air filter...

The Bonner bridge deserves a higher rank on the list.

One suspicion: Does the VIN as found on the vehicle's registration paperwork really belong to a US-spec xB? Something unusual happened to get it on the street in the US...

Ninja magic.

Once again, everyone: Rarity isn't desirability. Or value.

How about a category of "Cars that should have re-used a nameplate instead of the name they got."

I live between DC and Baltimore. I made it into work without problem today (a short commute helps!), but conditions were far uglier than I expected. It was clear that the severity of the storm took road crews by surprise.

I wish all cars did this: I've now owned at least two that didn't have this important feature...

If insurance companies were interested in fair compensation, Steve Lehto wouldn't have a job.
