Glad to see I’m not the only one who sometimes gets stuck thinking about that. There has to be an environmental advantage in keeping a car on the road for longer and not adding to the demand in raw materials and energy that it takes to produce an entire new car. Of course at the individual level this isn’t very

Dispensing with leather is commendable, but otherwise I’m a bit meh on the project.

Chrysler Conquest/Mitsubishi Starion

I have a ‘70s Lotus. When it’s not in the shop, it’s driven daily... back to the shop.

Manual and Brown

I can’t believe you missed the best wedge car EVER, the second gen Celica/Supra. Especially with the louvers on the rear window, it was the most 80s production car ever. Plus it’s a toyota so reliability is probably not gonna be a problem.

Child safety seats

I know it’s kind of a cliche at this point, I know I’m sort of sick of it as the go-to for ambitious engine swaps, but...

The 1UZ-FE. Simple and bulletproof. 

Look, I’m 100% behind calling Fits cool. They’re awesome little cars that are far more capable and fun then they have any right to be. And it’s a shame we’re losing them.

I’m a gun owner who is all for stricter gun control measures.

I am black and have my share of shitty bosses, but goddamn, you drop an N bomb on a subordinate!? And then he doesn’t even get fired? Who was this guy Tim Musk? 

Oh the good ol’ days, when we knew what to do with Nazis.

Now playing

In a weird plate-of-shrimp moment, I saw Death From Above 1979's newest music video yesterday. It’s 3 minutes of an ‘81 Prelude being chucked around abandoned industrial wasteland. Seeing any first-gen Prelude is impressive (although, there’s a clean one tucked in a garage near me), but seeing one being driven at

Sorry for being sincere in the Jalopnik comments, but my love of the 1st gen Prelude is tangled in family history and a father who knew how to manage aerospace projects but cratered when it came to being a dad or a decent husband.

That is after I put most of the center console back together so I could test. 

I want to tow this behind a Toyota UHaul box truck that I also want to own for weirdo, jalop reasons.

Yahoo is the big dog in japan, they offer plenty of services over there and are really popular

If this were a 10-door Grand Wagoneer, we’d already be reading a story called “How I drove my diesel minivan across Asia to Japan to buy the Holy Grail Grand Wagoneer.” ;)
