As if kids needed a reason for that, amirite?

You'd think with a name like Krystal Ball, she would have seen that one coming...

That generation of the Ford Taurus where everything on it was shaped like a football... that was pretty 90s.

I've found AMC guys to be the nicest. There is too much rivalry between the Chevy-Ford-Mopar guys and they can spend more time bashing each other's cars than actually talking about their own cars. I haven't met any AMC guys that do that.

Well it's awesome. I would seriously hang one on my garage wall for decoration. Nerd status achieved, I guess.

Degrees marked on the crankshaft pulley. Mind blown. Why doesn't every car have that?

I had left two Canadian-market-only unicorns and one very large prototype bear at home since they were outliers from the average size of the Puffalumps and wouldn't be an accurate measure of space compared to the others. Even then, I could have easily put both unicorns on top of the back seat pile and had the 3' long…

Myanmar, which you might know as Burma, is not what you'd call the richest in the world. An average income is around $200 per year and that is not a typo. But affluence is entering the region, and with affluence come automakers.

Great news?

"Some say..."

Gave that ditch a car.

Got authorship now, hooray! I'll start putting updates on oppo, starting with the next one.

Looks like that worked. I'm new to the Kinja universe. How does someone get authorship? It doesn't look like I have access to post anywhere but my personal blog.

Yeah, I've actually been thinking the same thing. It's in the garage, so the lighting is hard to get right, but I'll see what I can manage.

Thanks for your interest. I do have another blog where you can keep up on the progress. 85eagleproject.blogspot.com. I put that in a reply on this thread but for some reason I'm back in the grey. Anyway.

I've been keeping a (non-kinja) blog about it since the process started back in the late summer. It's at 85eagleproject.blogspot.com, if you'd like to stay up to date. I appreciate your interest!

I'm restoring one of these right now, a 1985, and this is the same color scheme it's going to have when it's finished.
