This buffalo in Yellowstone heard what we did to his people, and he is very, very upset about it. To the point where…
Because I'm holding the camera and you're wrenching in that picture, I thought

What starts as a normal and exciting day of adventure and fun, turned into a near death experience for an…
I also feel like you could build a sick 2500 GMC suburban for $9k. Here's a good starting point for $6.5k. Parts for these things used are easy to come by. They came with diesels if you want to go that route.
My first car was an '86 with the t-tops. It was a blast to drive and easy to work on (for the most part) also helped me learn car control in the snow.
Rollin' in my Five Point Oh...
Great car, but I never really cared for the 1987+ taillights. The ones that came before look a bit nicer to me.

Yeah but remember the crap didn't hit the fan until December. The first Continentals were made in '39 with minor updates each year until production was halted after Pearl Harbor.
It's the 2+2 , least desirable of all the XKEs but still an awesome car. I have 2 of them. That one looks to be in pretty poor shape, the post has no info at all either, that's why it's so cheap. In decent condition they usually go for 25-35K
Electronics aren't nearly as bad as people think, it's only the ignition…
At least he didn't block any lanes. Props to the driver.
McDonald's? They could have gone to Burger King and had it their way.
