Just stay below 88 MPH

So he found a desert-preserved near-perfect example of a rare car and he brought it to Detroit.

Back in high school, all my friends wanted the typical cars for the time: Mustang, Camaro, Eclipse/Talon and for the more well-to-do kids a Stealth, 3000GT or convertible 325i. When dad was shopping for himself and we stopped by the Mazda dealer, we drove a loaded 929. I was instantly in love with that car. Screw some…

The Millenia probably wasn’t the S version, the standard engine was a 180(?) HP 2.5 L V6. 

I really wish I got to see an alternate reality where the recession didn’t hit Japan and all of the bubble era ambitions came to fruition. We would’ve seen an MkV Supra decades earlier, development of rotary engines, and all kinds of oddball stuff. Instead we got decontended Camrys

Was it that long ago? I look the vehicle lineup in that brochure - one SUV and all kinds of interesting and fun cars. What the hell happened.

You’re describing the Mongol Rally. Which is awesome. This thing is wildly over-engineered for it, tho. I’d say send David to China, let it drive the thing to Vladivostok, then ship it to Alaska, and drive it down home, where he’ll procede to have its kids and raise them.

I’m in for way more than a tenner if he does it.

Obsessive safety breeds contempt

It’s too bad you got rid of the no-floor Cherokee you had. Two rivets and the VIN from it would have fixed the registration issue.

To find out, you will just have to order kegs from small local brewers until a guy shows up in an Astro with your keg.

They could call it the Subeerban.

The best part about the bus is the mod opportunity.

Right idea, wrong execution. A flower car would be perfect though.....

No, no, fuck that. Make David build that beer company its delivery Jeep, and have every Jalopnik staffer chip in as mechanics. 10 weeks, $5k budget.

David Tracy built this in a hotel parking lot WITH A BOX OF SCRAPS!!!

An HHR panel van is cheap, low, and quirky. Plus think about all that back end real-estate for a sweet wrap with your branding on it

Low load height, quirky, and cheap? I think I know what you need:

I love The Last Kingdom on Netflix, and anyone feeling “good version” Game of Thrones withdrawals needs to check it out, but the cherry on top was Hauer with a bit role as a Viking Dane elder, as he should be.
