$20K?! ZOINKS!
Why would it be illegal? The phone in your pocket has far higher quality surveillance capabilities than any 34 y.o. tech in this van! $15K?!? drop the “K” and that is about how much a 4:3 CRT, VHS, and first gen CD-ROM are worth.
I guess with a cheap paint job it could work as a movie prop in an 1980's themed cop show. ND for literally anyone else.
I’m shocked this is even legal to own. If all that radio equipment works that alone would be at least $15k, so you’re talking about some base model van with huge electronic upgrades painted by someone who was obviously high and thought it would be a good idea to roll with surveillance equipment.
You’re trolling us again, right?
Well, technically there’s one victim... Greta Thunberg
Growing up, I used to watch “Welcome Back Kotter” In the show, there was a group of kids calling themselves the Sweat Hogs. When they ran the high school store, they sold hubcaps that always happened to fit whatever person happened to need one nearby. The running gag was that they were so good at stealing hubcaps they…
I very much miss the signature "dual cowl" dashboard. This isn't bad, but it's absolutely soul-less
I’ll preface this by saying that I’ve been known to “see” connections between objects that aren’t actually there. So feel free to tell me how off I am with this, but this is definitely what I was reminded of from the top-down view:
As silly as this might sound, no physical buttons for climate control is a major no for me.
As a non-Mustang guy I thought “seventh generation” was a typo. I thought there were something like seventeen of them.
Turn it into one of those mobile video game rental trailers, but you can only play Kerbal Space Program
How long can the system operate when hooning? Seems most of these part time drive cant handle the heat and put you in limp mode
If they had brought the Renault 5 Turbo 2 to the US, perhaps the Le Car would not have been seen as such a joke (the ridiculous name kind of doomed it from inception, and the reliability did the rest).
Used a chunk of stolen stop sign (not by me, klepto friend) to patch the floor in my ‘76 Volvo 242. Not THAT janky though, I at least riveted it in place!
Was doing rear brakes on the W126. Pads and discs weren’t terrible, but the disks looked like garbage from many years of not many miles on the car and lots of rusty crusty stuff building up. Problem was you needed to unbolt the dust shields to get to the caliper bolts, and the dust shields are the typical thin steel…
I did similar on my old Ford Escort, although it was a section of pizza box rather than tupperware, although I knew it was an awful job - I just needed to ensure there were no sharp edges to get it to pass safety, and figured the paint was just one more level of adhesive to keep the whole bodge job together long…
I was doing the brakes on my W123 wagon. The one side went fine, done in like 45 minutes. The drivers side. Oh my.
When I was young (like 17), I once ground out a rust spot on the passenger front door of a Volvo 245 DL. Lacking any kind of skills or knowledge of bodywork, I then patched the hole with a Tupperware lid, duct tape, and bondo, sprayed the whole thing in orange primer and called it a day.
