As cool as that is, it wouldn’t be my first choice of car from that year. Of the cars I posted I’d probably choose the Scout. I loved my Scout so much. With the 192 I-4 by choice. Crazy, I know.

Lotta eye-rollers on that list. Lotta who-cares.

I would own a GT-40. I would not own a Ford GT. Why? There’s something just special about old-skool sports cars that the new cars just don’t have. Are the new ones faster? Yeah. Does that make them more fun? No. Or only for horsepower addicts.

You’re high. I-6 stands for “Inline-6" which is what all the early Ford six cylinder engines were called. I know some people call them “L-6" engines, but that is a very old designation that comes from the old “L-head” engines back in the day. An “L-head” engine is also know as a Flathead engine, or valves in block.…

So did the International Scout, and the Ford Bronco. The Bronco stayed essentially the same from 1966 to 1977. The Scout changed little except in details from 1961 to 1971.

“Today’s task is to write an editorial on the demonstrations. I could do it in my sleep. If the pinkos want to start a war with Denmark, then I have to explain why they’re wrong. If the pinkos want to avoid a war with Denmark, I have to explain why they’re wrong.”

There were indeed women snipers, and the Germans feared them. There were also the Night Witches which used old Russian biplanes to bomb German positions at night. The Germans nicknamed them “Nachthexen” or “Night Witches” because they flew in darkness and would cut their engines to glide in at treetop level for their…

If you like stories like this, pick up a copy of Rejected Princesses. The premise of the book is a series of stories about real (mostly) historical women who Disney would reject as Princesses. Complete with fantastic Disney style illustrations. It includes the story of Mariya Oktyabrskaya, and 98 more decidedly not…

Oh man, back in the early 90's I had a 74 Westie. That thing was so cool, but I sold it because I got tired of driving around with its primitive heating system. I wish I still had it today. In the condition it was in when I sold it for $2000, today it would be worth in excess of $25,000.

It is!

I’m okay.

I read this elsewhere:

The one I had back in 1990 or so never had corrosion problems, but it had all sorts of other problems. Don’t talk to me about thrust washers.

For the love of the gods, why?

At least it’s not an LS conversion. (Just like an ass-hole: everybody’s got one.)

I personally am of the opinion that any modestly cut one-piece is sexier than the most scandalous bikini. I’m also a fan of the “boy-shorts” style bottoms and an almost sports-bra type top.

It looks like an average girl wearing a fashion “swimsuit” designed for highly above average women.

I have to laugh at my step-Grandmother. Her son-in-law drives for Uber, which she pronounces “You-burr.”

Hands off.  She’s only 17 in that.

Pöint.
