I have had several A-bodies, cheap to run, cheap to fix, tough as all hell.

Is it just me, or does it seem like Rolls Royce has dropped over to marketing and pretentious hyperbole I stead of bespoke, customer coaches of yore?

The anti-pope does. His name is Toby. Nice guy.

Launching my car into space is something I’d do if I were pissed off at it. Wondering how many times it left him stranded somewhere?

There appears to be a long brown streak on the pavement behind the car. Not oil, this was from the driver.

The power of a large explosion.

Is it wrong to want to drop it to the ground?

I think Jalopnik commenters have been arguing this every time there’s and article about this bridge. There’s never been a consensus yet, nor do I see one happening.

I’m just gonna leave this here.

Opened the door to my 89 Olds to have all the rubber weather stripping go with it. And our 2001 Chrysler minivan sounded like crap for the first 5 minutes.

Well, how else would one make a “head” gasket?

Three wheel motion in the snow is cool quantified.

I have two involving the same car.... 1986 Pontiac Grand Prix, 4.3 litre. Was driving down the garden State parkway when it decided it didn’t want it’s belts anymore. Cause was a bad bearing in the water pump. Replaced it in the dark (it was December) entirely by feel. But the worst was a couple years later.... In the…

This is exactly why, after retiring my 1993 Olds Cutlass Ciera, I just bought a 1989 Olds Cutlass Ciera with the same engine, and less mileage. Not ready to let them go quite yet.

3300. 3800 block, different bore/stroke.

This wasn’t a one off deal. Many, many things have been moved/acquired on the roof of this car.

In my experience, it ends in smoke, tears, and sleepless, drunken nights looking for another one just like it on Craigslist.

Strong is subjective.. more like going on a bent valve, broken pushrod, 5 out of 6cyl and no functional electric windows. I consider it strong just by virtue of starting without touching the gas and usually starts immediately, although runs like shit. I plan on doing an upper engine rebuild soon, although I probably…

I have two, own one of them now, albeit in extremely poor condition, 1979 2dr LeBaron which I don’t own (yet) and a 1993 Cutlass Ciera.

The pants have been shat. Collectively.
