They got so caught up with whether or not they could that they forgot to consider whether or not they should.

I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again: Internal combustion engines have more personality than electric motors. One of the best parts of driving classic cars is that they have more personality than modern cars. If personality is one of the best parts of driving a classic, why would you modify it to have less

When I look at electric car concepts from the ‘50s and ‘60s, I can’t help but think that if all that technology exists now, then why does it all have to look boring? Just look how much personality people thought electric cars would have! Electric motors may have less personality than gas motors, but if someone sold an

Back in the ‘50s, Cadillacs were considered the best cars money could buy. It was the American dream to own one. Cadillac needs to make cars like that again, because that was when Cadillac had an actual identity. A Cadillac should be big, luxurious, expensive, and have crazy spaceship-like styling because if you’re

A while ago, the weather shredded my car cover just before winter, so I asked my grandpa if I could park my ‘66 Thunderbird in his garage, which was built in the ‘70s (I think). He said yes, and when I came to park my car in there, it barely fit. There were maybe three inches between the back bumper and the garage

I’ve heard people say that in the past people were a lot smarter because they grew up around a lot more dangerous things, so they quickly learned that if you don’t want to get hurt, you don’t do stupid things. Nowadays, people seem to coddle their children so much that their kids don’t learn common sense and how not

In my opinion, Cadillac stopped making good-looking cars sometime in the ‘70s and they haven’t made a good-looking car since (except maybe the CTSV wagon). This car is from Cadillac’s era of peak butt-ugliness and has no horsepower. I always try to find something to like about every car I see, but this one just

I actually don’t mind this design trend. In a world where all cars are starting to look the same, they actually gave those cars a design feature that’s at least interesting. While the resulting look may not be to everyone’s taste, I at least salute their effort and hope that car stylists continue to try stuff like

Do do do do do do...

I wish the engine in this thing was available as a crate engine. That exhaust note is freaking glorious. 

How many frozen waffles can you fit in the glovebox? If we measured engine power in llamapower instead of horsepower, how much llamapower would the Challenger Redeye have?

I have no idea how pink ended up being considered a girly color. There’s really no reason why a particular color should be gender-specific. It’s not that I’m a huge fan of pink, I just feel like an option has been taken away from me for no good reason. We should be able to use whatever colors we want for whatever we

IT’S A GLORIFIED CIVIC. IT IS A LITTLE BIT COOL BUT THERE IS NOTHING ABOUT IT THAT JUSTIFIES THE PRICE. Crack pipe 100%

I haven’t got them with me at the moment, but maybe soon.

My first thoughts after reading the headline:

In an art class I used to take, there were a ton of old National Geographic magazines which had apparently been donated to the school for use as “art fodder”. I knew there were some really old magazines in there, but I never realized just how old they were until I found one from the mid fifties. I was instantly
