      Just needs a GRAPICO tag and we're good to go. 🙂

      Such a cool car. Would daily this 100%, far cooler than the drop-top IMO.

      It's around the old Appleby Frodingham Railway Scunthorpe Steelworks that now do railtours on various trains from steam to Class 144.
      https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Appleby_Frodingham_Railway


      Video of someone driving the train on the track

      The sound of it moving off at 5:30. So many memories of this.
      The noise and feel, very much feel, the train going over joints. 🙂

      I have looked at 240Z prices on there and they are all over the place for 1971 Zs, I'm not sure how I feel about that. It seems like a gamble to sell on there.

      @Old-Busted-Hotness -- In freedom units that comes out to somewhere between the 413 and the 426, so yes, that should motivate the 2300-pound car quite nicely, if you could figure out how to max-wedge it in there along with enough reinforcement to keep the torque from popping the windshield out of the frame...

      The Pontiac Sunfire was a J-platform car. It shouldn't be confused with the Asüna Sunfire sold in Canada.

      I recall that the Asuna Sunfire was rebranded as a Pontiac for one year (1994)... but maybe I'm wrong.

      @Nauraushaun are there purists for replica kit cars?

      never seen a 7 rep without a rollbar, looks a bit weird without one

      i don't think so 🙂
      even for something like an older Lotus or TVR, i think it's pretty well accepted that some things were a bit shit from factory and you'll be fixing/changing things.

      I love the step-ladder next to it.

      I get emotional when someone mentions their step-ladders.
      I never knew my real ladders, from an early age I was raised by my step-ladders.
      Sure we had our ups and downs but they gave me the step up I needed in life.
      They made me realise nothing was out of reach and to take things one step at a time.
      Also that from time to time you need to take a step back and appreciate what you've achieved.
      .
      Sorry, couldn't help it. Lol.

      Of the 1,983 MG RV8s made, Woodcote Green accounted for 64% of the overall total.
      Of the 1,582 MG RV8s sold to Japan, Woodcote Green accounted for 1,258 which is 79.5% of the total.
      Woodcote Green was not popular in the U.K. or exports elsewhere by a long way, numbering five and six respectively.
      BRG (metallic) accounted for the lions share in the U.K. and exports elsewhere, 139 (45.3%) and 65 (70.7%) respectively .
      Today many of the cars available to buy are Japanese stock repatriated back to the U.K.

      I like 60s Cadillacs, though they certainly overcorrected from their years of tail finned flamboyance and became a very conservative car,* going from "strike a pose for the paparazzi" to "congratulations on being made partner" in the course of just a few years.

      To my taste, GM's design language of the 70s was not kind to them, getting worse year over year, and of course the malaise era affected content as well.

      *With the spectacular exception of the functional sculpture that was the early front-wheel-drive Eldorado; ranwhenparked shows a good example down thread.

      Amish christmas lights

      I grew up near an Amish amusement park.
      https://www.atlasobscura.com/places/rockome-gardens-amish-themepark

      They did have real electric Christmas lights strung up, but they were part of the haunted house. Apparently, electric Christmas lights were something that was supposed to scare you. For the non-Amish, the haunted house was about as scary as the waiting room at an accounting firm's office.

      @Just-Jeepin I was sad the day I heard that this gen Insight's manual transmission doesn't have the sort of 'classic' Honda stick shift feel. I obviously haven't experienced it myself, so I don't know how wide the delta is between the two, but I am saddened nonetheless.

      @Just-Jeepin -- In the comment section, a previous owner of the very car chimed in. The seller invited him to stop by, adding, "We are a British car service and restoration shop, which may give you flashbacks and PTSD, but probably worth the risk!"

      @Otto don't wait cause it's not like you (or even I) could expect to get one at the local dealer anytime soon.

      BritsnSwedes was MINIGTI

      @Just-Jeepin wow that seems incredibly cheap. Guessing the market for those isn’t what it once was. Guess it’s too late to sell the TR6.

      @pip-bip I used to have a thing for these unobtanium cars. People say there are three, Mercedes didn't really say, but it's been seen with no star on the front, one person said they just change the plate in the museum. 1969-mercedes-benz-c-111-1312897-1552825.jpg

      @Just-Jeepin
      They were a good car. Unobtainable down here too. But as @svend says this is the econobox version that may not offer much excitement especially on unexciting roads.

      I had the pleasure of booting a 1997 build rental spec 106 up and down the Pass of the Cattle (and many other Scottish, English and Welsh roads) back in 1998. Good car...

      @Just-Jeepin The Jeep trucks are too damn long, they need a single or extra cab. I found some Jeeps for you yesterday but none were fun colors, I posted it late. Seems like some doctor toys at the hospital since there were two modified ones.

      My first thought when I looked at the photo was that the emergency stop buttons were too high for anybody to reach. Then I realized just how small these shells are.
