Exactly! I just purchased a pair of rust free, undented, running, XJ’s for the combined price of $800. And one of them is a 1991 2 door 5spd sport. They are definitely available if you just do a little research.

No, its not true. You have no idea why the person wasn’t able to finish the project. It could have been a death in the family. Or a new addition to the family. Maybe the person has to move for a new job or lost their existing job due to Covid. Just saying, there are many reasons as to why someone might not be able to

I stare at that cluster almost everyday as I daily a 95 K2500 7.4l truck.  That one looks like from 96-99 as it doesn’t have the orange redline markings on the tach

I agree. I’ve found that when something isn’t going together easily and there’s lots of cussing to be had, I’m probably doing it wrong or have forgotten a step in between. I take a step back to assess the entire situation and voila, it suddenly goes much easier.

Mine was trying to reinstall the stupid plastic elbow on the underside of the intake air box on a BMW S54. Everything else was a simple and straightforward when replacing the SMG pump on my wifes E46 M3, even the special hose clamps on the throttle bodies didn’t give me any hassle. But that damn plastic elbow had me

You’ve probably never tried to keep a 7 sec drag car going in a straight line at full bore before. Let alone drive a dragster for 3.6 sec @ 334 mph in a 1/4 mile. It’s much more difficult than it looks.  

I’m partial to the GMT 400's. Perfect blend of utility, comfort and style IMHO.

You’re thinking of Vasquez Rocks.  

I know this is unrelated to the original article but a similar thing happened to me. I had purchased a new 06 Dodge 2500 Laramie at a local dealer. The paperwork was signed on a Saturday and included a few “freebies” like a spray in bed liner. I scheduled the bedliner install for the next week and when I came in for

That was my thought exactly. Why half ass it when you could have it TIG welded and repaired properly in a fraction of the time. Time that could have been spent repairing other things. But, he obviously doesn’t think like that. David always has to do it the hardest, most ass backward way just to get the clicks. Case it

But here’s the thing, they are entitled to be proud of where they work and all but I myself don’t want to be constantly reminded of the shithole Detroit every time I look up. They can put it on their own vehicle, just not everyone elses. That what the aftermarket is for.

Some A bodies came factory with a bench seat and a Muncie as well. My 68 GTO was one such beast.

“Hey Crabman”

.....Except for the worlds loudest ice makers.  The one we had would drop ice in the middle of the night and scare the shit out of us..... every time!

Or a 20/20 car.  Good from 20 feet away and at 20 mph.

You realize that individual counties can set their own emission rules, right? Just because LA has strict rules doesn’t mean all the counties need to follow. Case in point. Tuolumne county only requires a smog check when you first purchase/register the vehicle.  After that, its just pay your registration fee and you’re

Me on the other hand, at almost 50 years old, would have no problem driving this. And I would probably have to fight my wife for the keys.

Missouri, Oklahoma and Mississippi (for starters) would like to have a word with you.

“No regrets? Not a single letter?”

I will agree that some people are “forced” to live in their cars by their own poor decisions (ie: drugs and /or alcohol), but I would say that the percentage of those people are most likely in the single digits. Most people are in that situation due to things beyond their control such as job loss or low paying wages, e
