1977 VW Rabbit. My first car. My older brother was the original owner, the he sold it to a local guy who was a salesman who was pretty bad to it, and then I picked it back up from him after it hit 200K. By the time I got it the front clip had been replaced due to an accident, and it was on salvage title due to an…

As much as I want to visit Australia that’s how I’d probably drive too. It’s a scientific fact that everything in Australia wants to kill humans. The deadliest spiders, the deadliest snakes, deadly jelly fish (box, irukandji, etc.), crocodiles (fresh and salt water), their rivers are loaded with bull sharks, and even…

While attending school in Cleveland in the late 90’s I had one encounter that left me particularly enraged.

The fixed grin, the maniacal laugh... Probably don't require much training at all for this sort of thing...

Gads Mr. R, I do believe you are correct.

Oh what dark memories from the 80’s this brings up.

Dark, dark memories from the 0's. I was in college and flat-broke. My VW failed its inspection, and that was from a guy who I had bribed before to pass it. I found a Chevette in my price range that was rust free and ran. How bad could it be?

“I wouldn’t have really wanted to leave my ‘73 Beetle on the street in Canoga Park overnight, and as far as I can remember, I didn’t have any Chagall paintings or Matisse prints rolled up in the trunk."

The 2017 Honda Ridgeline. The official truck of the New York mob.

I was actually wish it was a hell of a lot more. Not because I applaud high-priced cars, but because I might be looking for a car next year and if the M2 was WAY out of my price range I wouldn’t consider it.

Had a great idea to turbocharge my ‘90 Miata, but lacked the fund to do it properly. So I spent months sourcing as much as a I could from the junkyard and came up with (on paper) what was a decent system - - right down to the all-aluminum intercooler off of a Saab. A few weeks of cutting and sizing and some welding…

He might bring a circus to the Cowboys, be he won't be bringing competent playing. He lacks skills, and isn't willing to invest the time to overcome his shortcomings. Johnny football is not just a punk, he's a hack.

Build thread isn’t inspiring, horrible fit and finish on that body, but if there is no rust in the hell hole or the lateral supports, and if the mechanics are sorted (yea, I know, HUGE if’s) this price isn’t too bad. I do like the engine choice. I know the WRX mill can be built for more power, but the EZ30R’s have…

Chrysler Airflow. Built in safety features and aerodynamic design just didn’t sell well back in the 30’s.

America’s Cup. First competition was in 1851.

I was expecting to see Road on the list. Just watched it on Netflix and was very, very impressed with it.

Tough call. Even if I had something as valuable as a 250 GTO in the garage, I’d probably still let me brother drive it (a. he was a competitive SCCA driver for years; and, b. he’s my brother). And I can’t pick something that is just too damn dangerous to let friends and family drive, because I’d then certainly invite…

With respect to the football team:

At the corporate level there are plenty of corporations that acquired another brand and then murdered it.

CRX First or second generation.
