This is the equivalent of having enough money to put OEM parts into your classic or buying whatever you can in order to rat rod it and just get it out on the road.

Or you can be like me and ride around Mos Eisley with a headless droid. #brokeisbroke

The hell you say.

Had the opportunity to go to this meet,but was unable to make it. Friend went and sent me a photo of the aftermath. My only response was:

What? A Mustang owner left a car show and wrecked? GET THE ABSOLUTE FUCK OUT!

I mean, what else was I gonna say?

Dang it ...I’ve got a Ram Mount X-Grip in my car and I love it. However, the built-in Qi charger might get me to buy something else. I *am* one of those people who straight up hates plugging and unplugging my phone in the car. I know it’s not a big deal but I just hate it.

Fine, but i get to pick the bullet.

Drive distracted, get your license redacted.
Driving slow on the left brings a fine with great heft.
Keep your hands on the wheel or great pain you will feel.
...why do all of these sound like a mix of Yoda and Mystery Men’s Sphinx?
Touch your phone in the car and you’ll land behind bars.

I literally can’t not say balls ...

Anyway, how does Trump pick the Browns to win a Super Bowl that was played in 2007? (Captain Pedantic, AWAY!)

Super limited sizes for each color. If you’re hella small you might score a good deal.

What does that say about the differences in expectations between zee Germans and the Brits re: who was gonna drive which car?

^rhetorical - the Brits hate me for being German, I get it.

If “Chicago” actually means northern suburbs, gimme a ring and I’ll gladly stop by to give you a hand. I mean, I know nothing about British cars (except they’re small and there’s a 99.2% chance that the wiring is shit), but I’ll watch while you fix it and if you actually accomplish something, I’ll clap loudly.

In some states (okay, Illinois is the only one that I know for sure), it’s illegal to sit in the left lane unless: (1) weather, (2) crazy bad traffic, (3) circumstances - accident, etc - in the right lane. If you are holding up traffic behind you and there is room to move over, you can be pulled over and ticketed. No,…

What the hell?! I mean, it can physically be done (I guess), but it’s a complete PITA. I’ll snap a pic of the brake lever in the ‘97 when it gets out of winter storage. (My in-laws have enough cars that they get to store some of them. Yeah.)

If I trusted the DB7 to make it even halfway to you, I’d be pushing for a…

That damned parking brake lever. Same problem on the DB7. Now, let me ask you this ...how much room do you have between the seat and door? I’ve got pretty big hands (just about palm a basketball) and there’s NO WAY I can release the brake if the door is closed.

Yes, I have to release the brake BEFORE I close the door.

re: Goebbels ...

100% agree.

I’ve been following a 5x5 routine for a couple of months (oh hey, yesterday was actually the end of week 8!) and putting steady increases in my squats. I, too, am old enough that I’m being careful in what I do, so with that in mind here’s where I’m at:

I’ve worked up to 255lbs squats. I squat with safety bars just very…

Eek.

Apologies if it’s already been posted, but the rotary-powered GTR Mustang ...

All hail the mighty (and completely ridiculous) Chicago Auto Show Media Pass. I got one under weird circumstances a few years ago and apparently I’m on auto-renewal. I don’t even ask anymore, they just show up in the mail a few weeks ahead of the show premier.

I’ve actually got two blankets. I’m got my warm (but not too warm) winter fleece and my thin-as-all-hell summer blankets. If the outside temp breaks 50F, it’s summer blanket time.

Who keeps the comforter on their bed when it’s 97F outside?
