Gullwing on the salt.

Close. It was based in East Haddam, Ct from 1984 to about 1987. Then moved to East Hampton until its end in 1989. I was the service director. It was the 280i model coming into the US. About 150 per year.

Look at the shows title-FAST MONEY. Not ‘What will happen in the future.’

They were always cool to me. And I’m pretty far east. Wanted one when they 1st came out. (I was 9 at the time) My first street legal car when i turned 16. I had dozens of them when they were $100 cars. Kept driving them till they all rotted out. The only reason they are west coast based now is thats the only place

I’ve built both-the 426 is much larger physically. And WAY heavier.

Crazy idea I’ve had in my head for far too long-a ragtop Metro-swap out the motor for a 3 cylinder diesel from a Kabota-on veg. It would get a million zillion mpg. And probably not much slower than stock.

Good translations cost money I guess.

Thank you for doing your thankless job on Christmas.

While working at a Yamaha shop years back, I had one of the friends of the shop ask me if I wanted to ride on his team doing endurance races on his bike (Think it was a FJ 600 at the time.) I was drag racing + riding fast on the street-but had no road race experience. I considered it an honor to get asked. Reading

If you’re to the point of counting cash, you’re past the agreeing on the price stage. “I only brought $2900 with me” is one way to do it a bit more gracefully-although still kinda crappy. “Will you take $100 off?” much better.

Outstanding in its field.

Yup-thats what I got out of the video. The guy ran him up the wall-he just didn’t lift. Tight racing on a small track-the wall is inbounds.

Who else figured out the car (or tried to) just by the opening pic?

He-he. I noticed the low psi too. Doesn’t the secret service have a tire pump around?

With a warranty.....

“I did have my cream chipped beef at the Shore Diner though.”

I’ve seen scarier battlebots.

As someone whos seen flatrack go from a thing-to near death-I’m so excited to see the the big upswing as of late. I watched every second of both nights on fans choice tv. Where the hell were all the fans? The place was empty in every shot I saw.

Everything from Ramblers to Pacers-and then Jeeps.
