Agreed. I like it a helluva lot better than the adipose 350 and 370 Z's. 

That would likely alienate several powerful and high donating unions. Not saying it shouldn't be done just that it's as unlikely as republicans turning down oil company donations. I wish it were otherwise but there we sit. I agree that that solution would spur electrification development though, maybe even hfcev's…

Cleveland was heavier and while they breathe better there are more parts available for the windsor, of course at this time Ford was still doing the 351 boss out of the cleveland. My personal preference is for cleveland over windsor which is why I'm likely putting one of the race ones my Grandpa built for nascar back…

Somebody needs to make this setup as an aftermarket bolt on for older trucks. The drive to the hardware store doesn’t often require all 7.5 liters of big block to get there but I often need them in the way back so it would be nice to not have to burn two gallons of fuel to make it the twelve miles there just to burn…

Hey now my truck resembles that remark.

The tail find on the studebaker hawk are attached by the trim that runs around them to the old car’s regular fenders so when they made the GT hawk the just omitted them from the production line thus making for fewer new stampings required and the cars cheaper to produce. In the same vein the doors of the ok after…

I agree. I grew up in a place with free busses for local residents (it was paid for at the county level thus locals were free but non residents were cheap) also living in a place with extremes of weather made the ebike I bought less than useless for commuting so I sold it to an elderly co-worker so she could go for…

Depends if you're reading king james or new king james, they modernized the vernacular slightly in the latter of the two. 

We're all pond scum on here just ask your local traffic court judge. Embrace your scumminess as I have mine, you'll be much happier. 

Take a twenty minute power nap, you won't feel fresh as a daisy or anything but it should keep you functional if a little grumpy. 

I’d be more sympathetic toward transit drivers where I’m from if I hadn’t been forced into the curb on the opposite side of the road through oncoming traffic by one. I get big cities need an ordinance like that or else they would never be able to get anywhere but some of them really need to train their drivers…

Got a pair of them. First I almost exclusively hold my gigantic soda in my lap rather than cupholders in my old truck out of habit because I only got an aftermarket cupholder doodle about a year ago so can’t seem to break myself if that. Second I tend to be vocal with the horn when somebody does something like cross…

I just spent the last twenty minutes trying to find it and failed but a couple years ago I saw a guy was building a super seven kit with, if I remember correctly, an allison 250 turboshaft powering it. If I find a picture I'll put it up because the thing was awesome. 

Those would be modern nissans I'd consider seeking out rather that the cvt driven crap they offer here in the us now. 

There’s a pair of them from the same guy. He owns a junkyard and offered me a Renault 10 for $300 bucks that was a “ran when parked” but was complete and rust free, the second one was a real WWII US Navy jeep, specifically it was a Willys the navy ones were different in that the windshield was fixed rather than…

Just before I got married I bought a “reliable and practical” car as a backup to my old X-body. So since I was going to college I decided a small cheap hatchback would be perfect for the week before the ‘08 recession hit. I spent 10k on an ‘04 focus pzev with an auto thinking it would be great. It had low miles and…

That’s fair. The guy that he’s staying with just had his places appraised for a home equity loan and discovered that his house had more than doubled in value in 18 months from 150k to 320k. He wasn’t stupid enough to pull the whole thing, just enough to replace his roof.

They're going to Utah too. My old co-worker is having a helluva time trying to buy a house because he's had six bought out from under him by californians paying cash. Thankfully one of our other friends is letting him rent his basement because things have just gone insane there. 

When Utah passed their lane filtering they forgot to include language on who has right of way when the bike pulls up to the stop line. The other issue I had with it when I worked there was losing four door mirrors in the first two months after it went into effect. Three off my obs ford truck and one off my wife’s old…

I went to high school with a girl that had a green on green on green 4 door ‘56 Buick. It was pretty unique even given how many classic cars were there. Mine was one of probably 15-20 in a school of less than 150 students in all four grades.
