zactly, prob not till roger is gone, i think he is going to outlive me tho so i might not live to watch but i watched it all in real life, i’m old as fk

finally, i thought i was the only one, i was born the month the 55 GM models were unveiled (oct ‘54) so there were plenty of these ugly things hurtin my young eyes when i was growing up, they turned it around the next year tho, the next three years the Buick’s are classic beauties, check out Leno’s

my mom was into watching wide world of sports, she and i would be glued to the tv any time they had a show on, this was back when F1 and Indy cars both had cars that looked like a hot link sliced in half length wise with skinny tires

1971 Canadian Grand Prix, Mark Donohue finished 3rd in his first F1 race, the rain was a great equalizer and his talent was allowed to shine inspite of his car

go to a Mecom or Barret-Jackson auction, I just saw a low mileage 13 year old Bentley sell at Mecom today for $20k, plenty of big name brands going for what you are wanting to spend

Caddy’s have been money pits since the 7o’s and now even more so, only ones buying them now are olds that are GM fans and people interested in the idea of being able to say they drive one. GM is headed to another govt bailout if they don’t turn things around soon

I listened during work and they made working on saturdays fun

looks more like Paul Bunyon’s cap

you realize that they have cams tho right? and how do you think it gets turned? i’m no expert on diesels but i would bet the majority drive the cam with a chain

the f1 fans who turn up their noses at indycar being a spec series are going to puke at this but it was inevitable, especially after all the efforts to make f1 more competitive and boom this year it’s even less so, i’m assuming the ratings must be looking dismal and this is the result

who knew that a car would have a carb heater? I had one of the Hyundai’s before injection and it would lose power on really cold mornings, pull over for 3 minutes and i could drive on for a while and repeat until enough ambient heat solved the problem, never realized until after it wore out I finally heard about this,

lawnmower racing is bigger than you think. especially in England, we send entrants over there every year and last i heard we still can’t beat em, saw one a few years back and they are pretty awesome

the gold one had a huge hatchback door on the back for all your friends to pile in to go to the opera

racing is a cruel mistress, some of the greats have been cruelly ripped from our midst and some of the most promising have been struck down before they could achieve their potential. our hearts and minds began to wrap around this young man when his ability and charisma began to shine only to see it smashed. there is a

this will go over well in europe, a few other markets, not in USA

i’ve always thought the mustang II and the monza were great in their fastback forms, they should have just stuck with that, they already has the sedans they were based on

you’re fired

i heard that we didn’t get this in the states because they took one to San Francisco and it couldn’t make it up some of those streets

my Dad had one of these pickups and that dang hood weighs more than some of those Hondas

i went and looked at one back in the day , i was in love but i couldn’t afford one, the thing that killed these(and the opel gt) was the new 5 mph bumper regulation of the early 70's, it wasn’t a volume seller anyway so a redesign was out of the question. it also indirectly killed the MG, they made an attempt by
