I want the small Transit van dressed up like the Ford Econoline Crusing Van and Pinto Cruising Wagon of the late 70s.

Those ELRs look way better than anything Tesla makes.

My favorite boring dream vehicles would be this 1977-79 Ford Ranchero with the Thunderbird front end clip...

The Aurora was purposely designed to remind us of the original 1966 Toronado with it’s bullet nose split with headlamps and the overall shape of the flowing decklid and loop taillamp panel.

Platform sharing is the proper terminology.

The Cutlass Ciera and Buick Century of this generation was built from 1982-1996. That is why you see so many surviving examples. They continued production long after their A-body platform mates Chevy Celebrity and Pontiac 6000 were discontinued. These vehicles were especially durable equipped with the optional 3800…

It’s actually smaller than it looks. It’s smaller than the 70's era Cordoba. This Imperial was created from the downsized 1980 Cordoba J-body which uses the Volaré F-body and LeBaron M-body platform.

A well disguised Volaré indeed!

Day 2 and the headline has not been corrected to reflect that it’s a Ford and not a Lincoln which was never sold in Australia. Freezing the frame clearly shows it’s the front of a Fairlane or LTD. It’s leaning towards LTD with “waterfall” vertical bars detected in the video still.

They are unit body cars descended from the locally built Ford Falcon from 1960, continuously updated like grandfather’s axe. In addition to the Ford Falcon, they added a longer wheelbase Fairlane in the late 60s. Their Ford line expanded in the early 1970s to include more variants such as an uptrimmed Falcon named…

There were no Lincolns sold in Australia. That was a NL Fairlane Ghia (1996-99) which was a long wheelbase Falcon. Since Lincolns were never offered in Australia, they sold tarted up Fairlanes as luxurious LTDs (DL series) and promoted them in sales literature as having “LincolnType Design”. Australian LTDs use a…

Neutral colored plasti-dip should fix that for you.

And they can be painted over in a neutral color.

Body colored dashes are just not done right on modern vehicles. They never look enough like the old painted metal counterparts mostly because old metal painted dashes took up the entire dash structure exposing mostly body color while the modern stuff we see are neutral colored or black plastic dashes in their entirety…

She tried to make flannel seat upholstery fashionable...

It also allows for only running two wires per door to operate the electric motors which makes the harness connector smaller and easier to detach for when you do remove the doors. Door switches require a lot more wiring although with modern circuits it’s done with multiplexing and fewer wires but still more wires in…

Profit that’s why!!

Crack Price for the filthy mismatched interior and dirty engine bay.

The Dodge Shadow and Plymouth Sundance were replacements for the L-body Dodge Omni/Plymouth Horizon 5-door models and Dodge Charger (024)/Plymouth Turismo (Tc3) 3-door models. They competed with the smaller compact class against GM J-cars (Cavalier/2000 Sunbird/Firenza/Skyhawk) and Ford Escort/Mercury Lynx.

That Cheeto Nazi is such an ignorant fuck!
