still not cool

JFYI - nicely restored 914s can’t be found for that price.

That’s more of a Sipster.

350-400 hp, 6 speed manual as an option, endlessly tuneable, surprisingly comfortable, you can fit two fullsize adults in the back seat (after you wait 30 years for the seat to move for them), shares parts with tons of domestic vehicles, and you can pick a decent, fairly low mileage one up for a hair over $10,000.…

Maybe it wasn’t the smoothest diesel conversion, but I’m sure a well-executed merger with a quality diesel engine (maybe stuff a Cummins 3.9L four-pot under there...) and a dedicated transmission would sweeten the deal considerably.

i love motorcycles.

Well jee, I can’t wait for all of the fire hazard jokes. I’m sure that they’ll just be so original.

Ah yes, the lovely SHOstar.....

Someone does not know their history. The Datsun 1500 was released before the MGB, and no where close to a copy. MGB is unibody, Datsun is body on frame, etc. Educate yourself before you look dumb.

That’s what I assumed. However both cars came out the same time. Actually the 1500 came out before. They’re two rather different cars though.

3 Wheelers for life!!

Chances are, they already have a decent drill. What they probably don’t have is a cordless impact driver. This would be near the top of my list.

shut your mouth and go to your room. /s

The Detroit 12V71

A turbo model with the ignition switch fixed is excused though.

They look especially good with 2 coats of wax

Oh, you’re right, it’s just the brown van looks so similar. And in the top pic you even have “them mountains” that uncle Rico bet he could throw the football over.
