They’ll sell dozens, doubling their US sales.

Damn, that’s a good one!

Besides the mentioned Goodwill [insert joke about discounts and poor credit loans], the g reminds me of an apostrophe.

The Mid Century Ford logo redesign is nice, but then my eye saw the cross on the F and the “ord” as a stylized guy lying prone on some kind of motorcycle like a speed record runner—but maybe drunk or…

I’m second tier, which is supposedly February, but that was factoring in higher rollout numbers.

Yeah, it’s a weird one.

I love his work! I like his manual showing the disassembly of a Holofernes, but when I tried it, reversing the process for reassembly didn’t work.

Every time I see one in a different color, I have a different thought: uglier than photos, better than photos, front looks good and back ugly, back not too bad and front too busy. I haven’t seen the color where it all comes together yet and none of them fix the awkward side scoop design. It’s too bad the hidden stuff…

It is possible to find alternatives and people are looking for just that. At least now some people are recognizing the blind exploitation of the past isn’t a sustainable way forward. Whether they win out or the typical greed of human parasites does, time will tell. I don’t know people who claim EVs are a completely…

That style 250 GT was not the best looked of the time and they look better in person than the photo, but you’re still right.

Weird. Anything unusual will get some compliments—never mind something that’s actually cool—so it shouldn’t really take him by surprise. Maybe he’s going senile and forgot he was driving something different?

First time I noticed one as a kid, my jaw dropped and I chased it in traffic on my BMX bike. I have loved these ever since.

I’m sure it is. I hate doors, though, and if there’s a way to get rid of them, I’d take it (plus, I was thinking that if I were doing it, I wouldn’t spend this kind of new chassis money on the build, so it would need the rigidity).

I think these windshieldless cars look cool when sitting, but gawky with a person in them. Also, it looks like the doors still work. I’d have welded and blended them into the body with longitudinal bracing spanning the inside, but for me, the increase in rigidity would be secondary to my weird hatred for doors. I like…

I also brake earlier to leave more space in front of me and get their speed down behind me, sometimes with a multiple tap on the pedal to try to get their attention or, if they’re bad enough, aggravate them into moving into another lane.

I think a lot of people can’t tell the difference between normal wear and tear maintenance and the end of life spiral. I’ve seen people on both ends, though the latter people are often poor, so they have to push their luck and end up stuck with their toilet car as the constant repairs preclude them saving for a…

The one I would add is the reason I never have electrical issues, alternators lasting 1/4 million miles, and batteries making it longer than 1o years (except for the Mazda I got rid of in just 5 years and the last two Focuses made it less than 5, but their batteries are comically small) is not to use too much…

Wow, that’s some resale, though!

The TW only came in an automatic. This is an easier swap to a 2.2 closed deck turbo engine than the other way around (and a TW would be way more money in this shape). Mine had over 270k very abusive miles when I took it off the road to restomod it. Alas, the house kept stealing its funding and time was not kind to its…

I don’t believe that closed life doors can be reopened (or should), but if it were Majestic Blue I’d very likely buy it. No airbag, so that’s a wheel swap to something with some feel and I’m pretty sure I still have the $1 wood knob I replaced the recycled condoms rubber shift knob on my old one floating around some…

That’s the only model I ever considered buying even when the roadsters were a dime-a-dozen and the GTs were not.
