Vintage racing > concours - most definitely!

Remember seeing new Camaros & Firebirds with spacesuit silver interiors in the early 80s as well.

The red #1 is the 1967 Foyt/Gurney winner. Pretty sure it belongs to Henry Ford Museum, where it’s usually on display.

Video mentions visor tear-offs as a 2000s thing. I recall my dad using them in the mid ‘70s. Also remember picking them up while walking the rim of dirt tracks after the races as a kid.

As a convertible fan, I’m attracted to the 914. But then I remember all the smug “I’m above you because I have the money for a Porsche” types I’ve met. Son left a perfectly good Mini Cooper S sit, because he had to join the cult of owners of ageing BMWs at his fraternity. Mustang vs Camaro. Mopar. Corvette.…

Those were the reasons a neighbor gave about 20 years ago - for buying his teenage daughter a Del Sol as her first car.

1962 Marx bomb-shelter dollhouse. Yes, this was an actual thing.

Enjoyed this - well written!

Some of these comments. Just. Wow. Unbelievable assholes.

Chris Economaki wrote several years ago that the problem is interviewers who make statements, rather than asking questions. And I suspect that there are also some really great questions that they are not permitted to ask.

“Official” mail delivery vehicle of West Virginia when we lived there in the ‘90s.

Similar one delivers our mail here in northern Kentucky now.

Because then spectators can only see a portion of the track, like on road courses. Oval racing’s advantage is being able to see the whole track.

Thank you! Great site that I didn’t know about.

Naw, terrifying would be to watch some of those sprint car racers lap the McLaren!

Best writing I’ve seen on Jalopnik!

“Watch my driving for me, because I’m too busy with my phone.”

Nice write up. Excellent work on the photos!

Wow! Actual colors! On cars! Not a red, white, black or gray in the lot. Wish other manufacturers would follow the lead.

There was a new Saab parked in Ikea Pittsburgh when the store first opened in the 90s. And Cincinnati’s Tesla store is already in a mall right next to Nordstrom.
