That’s why those caps had a locking nut that secured them to the wheel. With the nut securely installed, those wheel covers wouldn’t even come off in a rollover collision--I’ve been witness to that firsthand.

Gawd I miss 90s GM cars. Crap, but so interesting.

“Best Used Sports Car” Debatable? 

“Well I was just swapping my front end and I found some parts white but last part to find was a HD hood and I found one but it was yellow and there’s a page here in our state where there’s a lot of parts for sale and trade so I was just hoping I found the owner of a white HD hood that would wanna trade and well that

Oh, that’s E A S Y!!! It’s uuuhhh.... erm....

My parents hold it down.. They have an E-type, have had some Corvairs and 442's and an MGBGT, and a bunch of other fun stuff.

So much for being grounded to the ground

If a single piece of food was acquired from outside the car or if anyone peed outside the vehicle, there’s room for improvement. Seems like the pinnacle would be having some of those support people waiting at the pumps to fill your tank asap. Those pit stops COMPLETELY DESTROY YOUR PACE PLEASE JUST GET BACK IN THE CAR

Literally every concept from Cadillac.

Since we’re talking about Pinewood derby, here’s mine from circa 1990-ish. The rear wing has been lost to time, but it completed the open-wheel racer look. Head-lights and tail-lights are metal wights, and there is a brass weight inset underneath the cockpit area. It was I think within a half-gram of the weight

Is my mind playin’ tricks on me, or are those press photos absurdly heavily photoshopped? I know that some touch-ups are normal, but look at that shit! The paint can’t decide if it’s glossy, metallic, or satin, and the wheels+brakes look like two dimensional textures!

Going to have to go with the Toyota Land Cruiser FJ45, great off road ability, and ridiculously reliable. Its a favorite of warlords the world over for a good reason. Very few electronic components, so not much to go wrong, durable as all get out, and easy to fix with baling wire and an adjustable spanner. Pictured is

Discreet, good on all terrains, enough power to outrun scavvers...

You won’t get this sort of performance out of a modern car! 

And raise gas taxes a bunch. Then use the money to fix the roads and create more mass transit.

I’m in a rental car right now (it’s an Altima, shocker) because someone rear-ended my Golf R, and the first thing I noticed when I got in was my head was practically hitting the roof. Whoever was in there before had jacked the seat up as high as it could go. Seat was further back than I needed it too, so whoever had
