A recent sighting, accompanied by a few 0ther interesting vehicles.

The mirrors are the best part, because nothing says “Opulent Road Trip” quite like staring at my own, richly adorned ‘gina, while we cruise along at 70 mph on the pantsless highway to freedom.

“David Tracy unexpected finds that Tetanus is the cure for COVID-19 and makes millions off of people flocking to his back yard for the earthy medication”

The Cragars almost make me tear up; my dad had a set that he moved around to so many different vehicles, it was hilarious. He loved those things. I miss him.

Yeah, this is one you wouldn’t need to mess with too much to have fun at Cruise Night. I would probably do something about the seats, or at least some fun seat covers. Other than that, just keep the mechanicals maintained. 

NP. It’s not often you can find a pretty rare classic that’s ready to roll up to C&C (or even a purists’ car show) with no major changes after purchase.

“What’s worse is that Nader’s critique of the Corvair wasn’t even particularly accurate, and was refuted by NHTSA tests in the early ‘70s. Still, everybody remembers the book, not the NHTSA report. Sigh.”

So how much did you bid on it, Mr. Tracy?

Buy it and drive it to Moab in 2021

Have you seen how he works? 

I am jealous of a few things every time I read about your situation:

1) You have so much time to do all the car things! 3 kids means the spark plug change I did last week was something I had meant to get to for over 9 months.

Gotta rip that bandaid off, David..

It could have been released stateside as the Pontiac Aztek Coupe! 

Kind of looks like a Saturn Vue and Pontiac Aztek had a love child.

Sounds like what this gentleman really needs is a U-boat.

They have a phrase about the people on cruises:

I definitely think it’s one tourist industry we can let die. That and hiking Mt. Everest. You wanna talk about polluting and defacing one of the wonders of the world?... Everest trekkers are some of the worst.

While some resort destinations would see a huge economic loss, nearly everyone else would be better off if cruise ships all died.

No article on cruise lines is complete without mentioning how much they pollute, and how often they get caught dumping trash at sea.
