Hurray! Someone else (and I also do restos + mark + label parts) that gets it! I couldn’t figure the anger. When you sell off your electric E type project 10 years from now, If I can find the left side motor mount + carb mounting bracket (and the 100's of other stupid special parts) it makes my life sooo much easier

I can understand your grievance that they only specify EV conversions and ignores ICE swaps. From my perspective the difference is that one likely completely changes the overall experience whereas the other doesn’t. I would never deign to tell people what to do with their cars, but for everyone I know who loves old

The failed hood slide by the fat cop at the beginning of Stylo always cracks me up.

Great song, great video. I need to get that one back in rotation. Love MMJ.

Not a boomer. The ZZ Top Eliminator is objectively cool.

Now playing

The Ferrari 512BB used in Sammy Hagar’s “I Can’t Drive 55". The 512BB wasn’t imported to the US due to the national speed limit of.... 55! So the fact that Hagar is driving one for the song about not driving 55 is poetic.

Which one is Leonardo diCaprio?

First, the hinting of a lifted Veloster. Now a drifting van.

I think I’m becoming a Hyundai fan boy. Sorry Mazda. Start having more fun and maybe we’ll talk again — perhaps a 4WD MPV, like the good ol’ days?

why? that’s a terrible substitution. 

Living in a horror movie and need an escape vehicle? There is only one car that can out weird, out magic and out run the bad guys. Herbie.

Get a warm hat, gloves, and a jacket in the winter. Roll the windows down in the summer. If he gets hit in traffic it will at least be a slow collision.

This is the kind of thing they don’t train you for in the academy.

I think you are misinterpreting it.

There’s a purple Citroen SM for sale in the UK at the moment and the want is strong:

Tranny swap into a better ZJ, and keep the cowl tag from the original as a souvenir/documentation.

Mushrooms at midday in the middle of summer.

I’m going to posit they pulled that number ex recto

Your explanation of 5 has me crying with laughter.  :D

It just seems like it’s really done well. Not hacked together like some of the other ones I’ve seen. I like my old cars all original... but when it is done right. Like really done well, i think a blend of old style and new technology is just magic.

I was out of work suddenly, and took a job out of desperation for a few months. About 30 miles away, but commuting from the northwest side of Columbus to the southeast side - through the heart of the city, at the worst time to do so.
