Maybe the CX-5 will come with the CX-9's engine. And a manual on the AWD version please.

Early 60s Lincoln Limo. They started getting ugly in 66 (imho). This one’s a 65. Throw some flags on the fenders and away you go.

No barn doors? CP . . .

Classic American Convertible, you say?

It’s an airport in Turkey. I think they’re a little touchy about cars left alone near crowded places in that part of the world.

NP for Le Grande Parts Car!

I got an intake gasket for the wrong engine from Amazon (3rd party seller) and RockAuto charged me 40 bucks to ship a rotor and a wheel hub from two different warehouses in Iowa. The carquest a few miles away from me has competitive prices with RA when you…

Calling out the obvious.

That’s a dramatic difference in exhaust note between the LGX and it’s LFX predecessor. The LFX Camaros didn’t sound nearly as lovely as this.
