TN doesn’t inspect for safety, just emissions... That aside, I guess if i were to throw caution to the wing, i’d consider dropping that Police Interceptor mopar small block I’ve got sitting in my garage into my Datsun and see what happens.

my safety, or the general public’s?

The Wrangler Unlimited. I just couldn’t bring myself to use one for it’s intended purpose if I had to dump $27k+ on one. Any jeep for that matter should come in a “Utility” version. Considering their roots, they should be blowing the Transit Connect, NV200, and Promaster out of the water with a low-cost, base model…

From 53-55, the vette was available with an Inline 6, so it would be truer to it’s roots for that to be available now.

Honestly I’m surprised Air Force 1 is not equipped.

I think I’ve seen this idea before somewhere... hmmmmm.

One of my favorites from the Lane, when I first saw it, I walked up expecting it to be some obscure Alpine I’ve not heard of. Still, very cool.

looks ridiculous... but worked.

I design for a playground manufacturer that does mostly outdoor, but some indoor units like McDonald’s has. I could totally outfit an AmTrak with play equipment, arcade, mini-golf (cause that’d be fun on a train), movie theatres and skating rink/half pipe. Send your kids via train while you fly. To them, it’s like…

Some of the racing classes used to make more sense.

it what racing needs. There’s a place to the LMP race cars, Indy, etc. but watching those race is like going to an art museum to see a Chris Burden performance piece. It’s extraordinary, but you haven’t a clue what’s really going on because it’s simply not relate-able to the average guy (one without some sort of MFA…

have you ever seen this?

even more fun. leave the race tires on the fronts, space savers only on the rear.

I’ve been wanting to see a race series like this for some time, open to whatever production car you’re willing risk racing, but limited to a specific width space saver spare.

They have those, they’re called buses.

I’m thinking of a system that’d be way more awesomer with tons of flare, where a plane wouldn’t even have to land... let alone slow down, but too lazy to draw it at the moment....

Enough modules, and you might as well just have another plane standing ready.

So, should I redesign this?

I did this on my ‘79 510, then found there’s a release valve, if you unscrew it’ll drain the fluid.

US Spec bumpers on any 70’s or early 80’s imports are just terrible.
