A coyote engine or really any engine from the blue oval would have been cool (if done with nothing short of beautiful craftsmanship). A motor from another make just seems like a stupid idea that reminds us all of what Mitsubishi was up to in 1917.

I didn’t do doughnuts, but I did drive over and park right in front passive aggressively. I then laughed because after a few minutes I tried to turn around and leave, but I didn’t know there was such a strong spring lockout for R.
I had almost the same experience in 2005. Except opposite. I was looking at GTO, Z4, Boxster. I was at Ritzel Porsche (Now Norwell Porsche). Nobody would talk to me so I sat in a Boxster to check out the fit finish and my butt fit. I basically got thrown out and went next door to BMW Gallery Norwell (now BMW Gallery…
Chesty Puller once toured a Marine Corps base. After inspecting countless rows of Marines with perfect bunks and new uniforms he asked, “Take me to the Brig. I want to see the real Marines.” My favorite quote from Chesty was first spoken after a flamethrower demonstration, “But where do you put the bayonet??”

Received a ticket for speeding Memorial Day weekend. Cop assumed I had been drinking which I was not. He asked me over and over until I had to yell, “I have not had a drink in two days!”. Well he gave me the ticket and I headed home (2 miles after a 3hour ride from Limerock watching a race). I went to pay the ticket…
Yup. I would love to see people with talent apply it in such a way that doesn’t screw with other people’s stuff. If this was a mural I’d be all over it.
Thanks Pickup-man. I’m struggling with the ergonomics of a lot of these. So many are all about show and not giving a crap about the whys.
Thinking about buying a Springfield for my first bike. I just took the class on a HD Street 500. I felt like a monkey riding a toy. I’m 6'1" and 310#. Should I back off and get a cheaper bike first like a Scout or a Sportster? Polaris killing off Victoy really has me wondering if they’re in to Indian for the long…
Were you flying United? Charlotte is an American hub. Bizarre routing to be flying United, unless it’s an uber cheap fare.
I was flying back from Chicago to Boston via Charlotte (cities may be a little off) when my father and I were bumped on our connecting flight leaving us stranded in Charlotte. The ticket agent was rude, and offered no help, even to the point of smiling and laughing at us and saying he couldn’t do anything but rebook…
I will sell you my 14 cheap. Doesn’t have your other two requirements though . . . All the survivors today have had the crapcan exchangers changed out for lifetime stainless jobs. Hey that engine’s not from a bug . . . it’s from a 411 / 412 :-/. As awesome as the 914 is, I cant see spending the money they are…
This isn’t as bad as you think. The 70s meant Porsche - Audi was a thing in the US. Back then the VW / Porsche combo meant a lot of things including money for Porsche to race air cooled engines, and the 914. A proper 914 is the ultimate Jalopnik car. No frills, not overpowered, great handling, and cheap as a chicken…
I would say the 0-garage-0 time on the left is much slower than the 0-100 of the one on the right. I see the old Bugattis at Limerock everytime I go for the historic racing in September. The one on the left is destined to be a garage queen for its life.
All I can see now is that movie Monster Trucks with its alien living inside the truck magically spinning the wheels with its tentacles. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt3095734/?ref_=nv_sr_1
I guess that’s the answer right there. I guess if you are just having a little scotch with your soda on a late flight no big deal, but if you are drinking scotch by the pint no bueno.
What was the airline!?? Happy customers mean happy flight. I was on a flight once with a bunch of football fans that were all boozehounds, and that was a bit rough. I can’t imagine why they would care.
counterprotip: use your 1 quart zip lock bag by filling it with 1 oz shots of booze added to coke you bought at newport news.
