“He needs something to write about” is not accurate. If it were, I wouldn’t have bought the same car I’ve been writing about for years. And the same thing goes with my recent Wagoneer acquisition—I’ve already written ad nauseam about essentially that same vehicle (Project Redwood).

Four-car garage in a warm climate with junkyards filled with rust-free machines?

That’s the dream.

BaT is quickly becoming more of an exception than a rule

Yep, that’s an E30 dash with some gauges where the radio was. So we’ve got Porsche, Chevy, Chrysler, and BMW parts in this thing.

Huh? I think I noted that the original name for the truck was Pajero in the opening sentence. I even linked to another NPOCP story below that about a Pajero.

TOM! STOP IT!

Not enough people do...

Also a tarp to lie on when you have to get under the thing. Or at least an old blanket. The people I knew with the most worn-out heaps always carried one.

Tires, over a grille guard ideally, work well for pushing cars around with minimum damage.

Sixteen days is a long time, though. Right?

Finding a specific Subaru in Portland. This should be fun.

C’mon, we all know he would drive a 240 wagon.

Lincoln Continental. Because his name, and the whole keeping the continental US together part. Also, he is tall so convertibles make sense. That said, he was also assassinated, so maybe not the best idea.

“Unlike all those cars on Craigslist, this car actually DOES have a V4.”

yaaaas and as for the other “spare” car he can make something this awesome

Why do the seats have fart gutters?

This Jeep will live.

Nearly 250k miles, did 93,000 miles in its first 5 years. Rust and hail damage. Mileage on odometer incorrect. Oh and it’s an auto. CP.
