Thanks for watching. Yes, I’m totally going for youtube fame by making videos about cars that no-one gives a shit about. Have you seen my collection? Driving and maintaining these old cars was fun for a very long time. But my perspective and priorities have changed. This was a video about that.

Great read! Thanks for putting this together.

Actually this isn’t Angeles Crest. Close though. Little Tujunga Road. But I do take my own slow shitty cars on the Crest! :)

Yeah it was a big no from the owner. Also, in full disclosure, the Humvee handled slightly better on these roads than the DeLorean I recently rented.

Haha yeah there are certainly a few flaws! All of these NUMMI Novas lost their headliner at some point. Only real missing pieces are the Twin Cam wheel center caps—which are impossible to find!

The 7500 RPM redline makes this car kind of hilarious. I would have loved for this to have been my first car—but would have likely ruined it with similar antics!

Yeah—a four door Corolla GT-S would’ve been rad! Nova Twin Cam and Prizm GSi were the only U.S. 4-door 4AGE options during this time. (I also have a GSi because I’m apparently NUMMI crazy. Vibe GT may be next on my list.) :0

I was surprised that the wind breaker was in such good shape! I thought most jackets with these patterns would have been burned by now!
