Some people do this for good reason.
If any of the sauce gets on my face I’ll have a pimple there in the next day or two that it touched. I would rather eat pizza with a fork than deal with a pimple or two.
As a former e34 535 owner let me say this just once.
It’s a red herring in the push-back against driverless cars, were you asked to chose when you learned to drive? So why are we asking this from a machine before it can drive?
English wheels are also notorious for squishing fingers to a bloody mess.
Besides leaving the batteries sitting on the floor, which will cause it to rot, unsealed batteries give off bad chemicals when discharging and should not be used inside a house like this. This is why battery backup systems are so expensive, they use deep cycle, sealed batteries. They won’t leak (unless something is…
Yes, those 70's cars were fantastic!
You can reverse VW and Porsche transaxles of that vintage rather easily, it’s a simple ring and pinion kit.
It’s called P.O.S. = Previous Owner Syndrome.
Oh how quickly people forget...
Besides the Firestone tire scandal and rollover fears, they were well known for the intake manifold plastic cracking, leaking and causing them to overheat, so much so that when broken down by generation, 3 of the top 5 cars traded in the cash for clunkers program was an Explorer.
I’m not sure it’s more scarce, so much as the fact that they are selling a ton of 4 door models (soccer dads?).
Look at all those people just standing around watching, it’s no wonder they have financial problems!
Someone mentions it further down, but “Cuban Chrome” also dives into what goes on down there. Simply amazing what they go through to keep the cars running.
While I disagree with it going back to stock easily, it’s a 348, not an F40, so meh.
Despite how much I love the YB-49 and it’s predecessor the XB-35 (two of my favorite aircraft), the technology to control the yaw just wasn’t there at the time, it tended to wander, making targeting difficult. They were right to kill the program, they just didn’t need to do it with the extreme prejudice that they did.
Watson style Seaweed flames were huge in their day, and still look great on cars of the 60's.
Crumple or not, newer cars are FAR safer than older ones.
I would much rather see my kids in a 200x Subaru than this tin can of a Toyota.
The last Ford blocks rolled off the line in 1953 after several revisions, and there are also German and Simco blocks, the last of which were made in the 70's.
If I remember right, a flathead is really only good for around 300hp on the street, beyond that the blocks start failing (cracking in half I think). Even at 300, you need to really sort and find the best of the bunch, the sand cores often shifted resulting in thin walls and there are design aspects that will limit you…
