OH MY GOD - SHOUT-OUT for PASTE-UP!!!!!

This raises another question, possibly enough to be a Jalopnik (or Oppo) article of its own:

How about a pair of clunky white New Balance Dad shoes paired with a Canadian Tuxedo?

Funny thing—I was at a media event on Tuesday where I got to drive around 20 cars. Of those, only two (Mazda 3 and Miata) were stick.

Anyone not voting NP has no soul idea how to drive a stick.

3 grand is fun weekend toy/project car all day. Anyone not voting NP has no soul.

Some people watch pimple popping. David Tracy watches rusted out frame restorations.

This would be classified as a motorcycle under US regulations, and wouldn’t have to meet safety requirements. With 4 wheels it could never be released.

They’re brand new light housings and bulbs.

Looks like Kato’s fever dream after taking a nap in Black Beauty on a hot day. . .with the windows closed.

None of the cars are in running condition.

There are people that toss away that kind of money for booze and “herbal therapy products”. A much better choice of expenditure and it provided fodder for Jalop Blog Posts, too.

Restored?  That’s not what he did with that Jeep.

I wouldn't exactly say Postal is "restored". Hell, I wouldn't even call it roadworthy.

As the manager of an auto parts business years ago, we had some for deliveries. When needed, I would take one home, and use it at night. More than once I told a young lady, I had a ‘Vette outside. (Insert their disappointment).

While I’m not in the market for a car like this, the only reason that younger people don’t buy these is because of outdated bias, back when Corvettes were really and truly mullet-mobiles.

Let’s be honest, this car is going to be awesome, but I think something is being lost by not being front engine any more.

Well, they don’t have thumbs.  Not like monkeys.  But damn are they good with what they have.  I know actual people who have more difficulty with some locks than raccoons do.

The ‘15 WRX I had was trouble free outside of a bad battery. Same can be said of my ‘16 Accord. My quality disappointments have been with cars from earlier times.

I don’t know... It’s pretty cool, but making an unusual vehicle go fast is only a mild engineering challenge for those used to making things go fast.  I want to see the thing till or plant corn at 100mph.  Now THAT would be a serious engineering challenge.
