But let’s be honest, people don’t give the PNW enough credit for how redneck it can get. They assume it’s all Grey’s Anatomy, dead Grunge singers and Amazon, but there’s some West Virginia-type shit out in those mountains.

The only thing that can make a third gen F body better is to make it anthropomorphous. Or did the dude become autompomorphous?

I recently fixed an inoperative power window on an 1986 Fleetwood and this is the interior I was confronted with. It’s like a den for Sicilian Septuagenarians from Bensonhurst.

Of course proving that the 7ooR4 is working might be tough.

It’s ‘not firing” as in “will not start” and “is not on fire” double-entendre and word economy all in one. 

This might be the most redneck thing I’ve ever seen; and I’ve seen some shit.

Okay, that is pretty good. 

Was going to make a Jack White reference; no longer needed.

It wouldn’t help GMs CAFE numbers at a whopping 11MPG though. And you’ll lose that tax-incentive.

Damn those wheels look tiny by today’s standards. Love the color combo though!

It’s actually because you can’t leave sweet black marks with white tires. 

No way in hell I’m going there without friends, and sidearms. 

I’d like someone to show me an example of a great car that bowed in 1974. 1973-4 was the beginning of the Decade of Dysentery.

There are more street rods built in the 80s and 90s with Mustang II front ends rolling around than there are Mustang IIs.

You learned something new, but not something useful. 

Limo drivers excluded, which are the only people I see driving them. 

They would double sales by changing the name to “Sedan DeVille” and offering it with stylized wire wheel hub caps, standard whitewalls and carriage top. Sole engine option should be a carbureted 130 HP 307 V8 because “everyone knows how to work on it” and “I’m not driving a computer”. Infotainment should be an AM/FM

It’s the internet; hate is the default state. Everything is terrible and everyone sucks. 

Unless it has the N/A 2.3 SOHC engine which had like 70 HP, then 100% would lament the driving experience.

People forget that most Mustangs/Camaros ( or insert “legendary” muscle car here) came with very plebeian engine options. Inline sixes with 100 HP, 302 and 307 2Vs with 3 speed manuals and an optomistic 200HP were the bread-and butter cars of the era. Much like today’s 4 cylinder Mustangs and Camaros, except the base
