You can buy a new Neon in the US right now. It will just have a badge on it that says “Dart.”

Wouldn’t each of the lunar mission Command Capsule Pilots qualify as “alone in space” while the LM crew was on the surface? (1969-1972) They were certainly a few thousand miles from the nearest human during that time. That would make Ronald Evans the last man to be alone, I think, since he spent 4 days by himself in…

Dirty diesel.

Is there a question that asks “is it stupid of us to continue using the Continental logo instead of our iconic Tulip?”

Probably just a simple way of saying “no exit,” or “dead end.” At least that was my first thought.

Well, at least now you’ll only have to swap one badge.

I dunno man, that looks like it’s based on the tried but true Wheels-N-Track system Hasbro perfected back in the 80s...

As such, he’s the ONLY US president to have taken the oath of office in his home state.

As a fan of cheap cars that I believe should be remade into whatever image their owner thinks might work, I disagree. Let people enjoy cars for what they want out of them. If the next guy thinks it needs an engine swap, even better.

We’re falling behind! There is an island gap! Mr President, we cannot allow these Commie bastards to get the upper hand! We must build our own islands too!

So, I know I’m late to the party on this post (was stuck at work -__-) and I’m probably in the Grey and/or probably gonna get buried, but I gotta chime in here. Just wanted to address some things I’ve seen in the comments:

You have to wonder if CARB is pushing for a buy back

Very nice: I’m jealous! Consider posting some of your adventures in the old girl 👍

in France this car is on the brand Matra (former named SIMCA ,bought by Peugeot in the late 80’s)

My god I totally forgot about that Rancho. A few people in my neighborhood had those when I was growing up.

The Model T: a mechanical mule. Simple and tough and stubborn as hell. Distracted diving would bite you-hard! You froze or boiled and fighting the wheel would make you ache, as would the ‘suspension’. By God, you learned to be aware of every odd noise or twitch!

And people say there’s no car culture any more.

Offroading in a Model T? Sure!
