I had a green over tan ‘78 Pontiac Sunbird hatch from ‘78-’04 similar to the pictured Monza hatchback. 231 Buick V6 2-bbl, four speed Saginaw trans. I swapped in a Hurst shifter, posi rear carrier out of a Monza GT, Trans Am steering wheel, and powder-coated Vega GT wheels with white-letter Goodyear GT radials…

Wow is that depressing on every level.

The whole catalytic converter stealing thing is irritating and would be frustrating and it would be nice if the police could figure out a way to curb this by making changes to how people get paid when selling these things.

However, this guy was sleeping in his truck (why?…

To whit - Netanyahu’s rhetoric upon losing was straight out of trump’s phrasebook.

There is indeed worldwide collusion and coordination.

I mean, Gorka is a Hungarian (Orban’s country), Bannon and Mercer meddled with Cambridge Analytica (based out of the UK and used by quite a few conservative election strategists the world over), etc.

But, more than it all being a planned event: they all see what tactics are working to get them elected and keep them in…

Never anything that appeared on my Lust List, but a droptop with a row-yer-own transmission in apparently decent shape at this price point is hard to resist. I wouldn’t be embarrassed to drive this. Nice Price.

It’s not just about the cop’s safety, but the woman’s safety as well. If she were half out in the road and a sleepy trucker rear-ended them, it would go badly for both of them.

PIT maneuvers should only be used in extreme situations - in part because they endanger not just the “fleeing” vehicle, but they endanger other people around as well. 

I find it interesting, too, that it wasn’t until real, concrete evidence of police behaving badly started coming to light and real talk of reform started becoming mainstream that these disrespectful, desiccated US flags popped up on some people’s lawns and pickup trucks.

Cameras are just the worst thing that’s happened for cops. Youtube is just chock filled with video of cops doing bad things. It really makes you question the whole “bad apples” idea.

Just time and again the question is: What the fuck are cops thinking?!?

I got the drain plug taken care of. 

Those old magnetic speedometers aren’t linear at all near 0. So the graduations are adjusted to make the readings more accurate.

David, you’re better than this. Unless you think that lawmakers are going after redneck white kids in their 20's for some reason, there’s just no evidence at all that this is racially motivated. You’ve been spending too much time with your fellow writers who seem hellbent on turning every situation into a political…

I keep asking myself who acquires this kind of showroom-mint time capsule and then throws on a bunch of bullshit decals that would *never* have been on a T&C? It’s making me angry.

take your star for the Bare Naked Ladies reference :-)

These kind of “rare finds” always leave me scratching my head. What the hell are you supposed to do with it? Any regular driving lowers its value, and in this case, it’s difficult to even say if it has ANY value. Put it back in storage for another 30+ years, and periodically visit it and admire your rare “find” while…

This was my first thought. That they’ve pared the bridge inspection team down to “Joe” and Joe simply can’t keep up.

Then when something like this happens, they pass laws requiring more frequent inspections or something, but not extra money to accomplish it.
