    Which of course begs the question...why stuff the 460 V8 into it?

    Exactly. My '46 Dodge 1/2 ton pickup is fantastic, you're very involved in the process, from the sounds all the way to the operation.

    This, exactly. My '46 Dodge pickup can start in any gear, though the clutch pedal (directly actuating the clutch) is really heavy, to the point that I'm not sure my wife could manage it.

    And before that, it was the MGB mantra.

    Now playing

    Agreed. And it's not just Ferrari's that sound good during historic races...check out this Healey 3000 at The 6 Hours of Spa.

    Be careful, it's a sickness! I have about 4GB worth of live shows on my music share now.

    As someone else mentioned, John Forespring ran one for a number of years here in the Pacific Northwest. He's still active in the Pacific NW, I believe; here's his business page: http://www.statefarm.com/agent/US/WA/Olympia/John-Forespring-XDTBN1YS000. He probably has all sorts of advice on how to build one of these.

    Okay, roundabouts. We can have more of them, fine go ahead. But here's what I ask, America...and it's not hard:

    That was exactly my thought. Transformers (the electrical kind, not the robots) will look like big blue flashes in the sky, as your vid shows.

    I dunno. It depends on who you're buying from, really. I just bought my wife a VW certified pre-owned Jetta. It's been fantastic. Low miles, everything is in perfect working order, and it has a 2 year/24,000 mile warranty.

    Of course Roo is faster than a redneck!

    One of the best sounding machines I've ever heard was a '57 Bel Air (hard top). Of course, it wasn't exactly stock...

    Dear sir, I would like to trade pockets with you. You can find the pocket change I keep — namely 37 cents — and I will keep the pocket change you have.

    Yep. While I run Blizzaks, the Hakkas are definitely better. Unfortunately, the price and availability is reflected in that.

    You're absolutely right.

    I yawn with my eyes open all the time. So do most people I know. I can't sneeze with my eyes open, but it only takes less than a second or so, and even when I sneeze 3 or 4 times in a row, I have enough time between them to get a view of what I'm doing and take appropriate actions.

    The legs look like something out of a Dr. Seuss book

    I have a first edition Catcher In The Rye. What'll I get for that at this trade?

    Like you, I have snow tires on some rims waiting in the garage. I typically put them on when the temperature is consistently in the 30s during the day (I rarely go anywhere after dark, but if I did, I would of course pay attention to the evening temps too). Many times, here in Oregon, it won't snow until very late
