Not gonna lie, I wouldn’t mind resto-modding this with an LS if it were more reasonably priced.
If you have a “summer beater” it’s not a beater. You’re just broke.
Maybe at a Carrabba’s or an Olive Garden?
My quibbles with this are all subjective, so I’ll go with NP. That interior color, for instance, reminds me of that awful interior/accent color Ford called “saddle” in the ’70s. Like spray tan for your car.
P.S. No dissing on GE refrigerators, this 1960s gem is still keeping beverages cold and pizzas frozen in my basement, and will probably outlive me.
And when they come to chat, it’s only going to be about the reliability and how do you keep it running.
I changed my bookmark to jalopnik.com/latest. It shows up there!
If this is the car you want, it’s technically a nice price. I doubt you’ll find a Biturbo in nicer condition, and it’s not a bad car.
I’m curious why you’d ever trade a 460 for an FJ in the first place...
Technically, it’d be hearsay if I told someone else you’re fine with 2WD Jeeps!
The Crack Pipe thing has been debated ad infinitum and what’s done is done, but the more important aspect is that it is no longer a marquis header at the top of the site, giving way for “Video” which I’m sure about .0003% of this site actually asked for.
But how do you really feel about his car?
I, for one, am all for taking a Volkswagen-controlled company’s word about clean fuel technology at face-value without any critical commentary.
Uff-da! Here in Seattle, land of displaced Scandinavians, that would be gobbled up at the listing price like pickled herring or lutefisk. You betcha, NP.
I had a (superb) physics professor who didn’t wear a watch. Instead, he gave us three cigarettes’ worth of lecture. When three filters were neatly lined up at the corner of the desk, he’d wind things up, assign some homework, and send us on our way.
I’m already imagining the holiday TV commercial. The camera pans over a chalkboard full of equations, lingers on a leather accordion briefcase containing term papers and spilled pipe tobacco, and through an ancient window we see a small, sensible older European car, while the voiceover intones, “Faculty Club. The…
Exactly. This car has the upgrade(s) every Amazon owner/shopper wants.
I’ve alway thought that someone needs to produce a cologne called “Old Volvo” -- sandalwood and cedar, with hints of motor oil and pipe tobacco.
The Volvo Amazon has always been my favorite candidate for a restomod. A complete Dave Kindig kind of job. My uncle used to have one of these when I was a kid, same color but in four door trim. I wish he still had it so I could buy it off him. I wonder though if an LS3 would fit in.
