Did the doors line up after they were done?
I remember reading an article years ago in muscle and fitness or body building about how to lift a car up on two wheels from one side. I remember they used a panther car, and had the doors open on the driver’s side to rear squat it. The guy was facing out, had his shoulders on the door opening, and the left arm…
totally doable with a Sentra
Also counts as yoga
You can probably get the same workout by purchasing a Lotus Europa and try to enter and exit the vehicle.
Now is your perfect opportunity!
Meanwhile, 90% of people from the 20s and 30s outside of major cities heard the concept of making a car capable of going off paved roads and responded with “Wait, you guys have paved roads?”
The Zapp family from Argentina has been driving around the world in a 1928 Graham-Paige for over 15 years now with their kids. I’m pretty sure their Graham-Paige has done more real offroading than the black thing above will, and their car gets bonus points for being mostly original.
Maybe when it stops being an inexpensive way to get decent power out of a relatively small and reliable package that has massive aftermarket support?
A lot of these are done on S10 frames as well, they have pretty narrow frame rails and very simple and abundant front spindle setups for an easy drop. Plus the wheelbases for various models work out well for adaptations.

Maybe this move will have a positive impact on auto design. Manufactures should do art deco style cars again.
Yeah, I remember the first time I saw one standing on the ground at fairly close range - it looked like a toddler in an eagle costume.
Canada voted not too long ago on a national bird - similar to how United States of America (USA!) has the American Bald Eagle as the international symbol of freedom. There might be an allegory here to dovetail with Brian’s post. I don’t know - that kind of writing trick is outside my wheelhouse. Voting results:
Fuck geese. There should be a national bounty on geese. They are a scourge.
The loon is prominent on Canadian coins. Their one-dollar coin is often called a “loonie.” The eagle is prominent on American coins and national branding.
