    • It's not often I see a classic supercar on the highway...

      But when I do, it invariably has a bike rack on the back.

      This was my first ever post to old Oppo, for reference:

    • RE: Craigslist Coping Mechanism (And A Decision On The Squareback)

      @WasGTIthenGTOthenNOVAthenGTInowA4 It’s an excuse that sounds better than “holy crap this car is a flaming money pit that I cannot escape so please get it away from me before I go bankrupt”

    • A very crabby pilot...

      With apparently a lot of time on their hands and fuel to burn.

    • RIP my wallet...

      As of today, I'm now the owner of 2 German cars with no warranty. (No new purchases, the warranty on my Mercedes expired yesterday.)

    • DOTS and long time no see!

      [link text](link url20210308_225536.jpg )

      20210308_225613.jpg

      Saw this gorgeous yet completely basic 67 Chevelle 300 at lunch today. 6 cylinder, with a 'Glide I believe.
      Amazing that it hasn't been trashed or hot rodded in 54 years.

      Hope you're all well- it's been hectic and tiring for me.

    • Peak Honda

      To me, this gen Accord will always be my favorite. Fantastic reliability, and rust protection was at least better than previous cars (which were awful).
      My mom had a burgundy LX-i coupe for a long time. Great, comfortable, reliable car. This one even has a 5 speed, which is slick as hell.

    • Shenanigans were had

      Went to my in-laws to plow the ~4” we got. They live on a short court that ends in a wide cul de sac.

      Once I was done, I looked down to the cul de sac, and the snow was absolutely pristine. Not a single car or human had been down past my in-laws house since it snowed.

      You can guess the rest of the story - I did take it easy, since my son was with me and there was a guy shoveling his driveway.

      tl;dr snow is fun!

    • Hello new neighbor!

      0F73D1D9-3DB9-495D-BD2E-F5D7879AF324.jpeg

      Saw this guy backing out of a garage less than a block from me yesterday. Exhaust seems to have a hole in it, but otherwise the car looks good.

      Curious on the story - the old lady who lives there is still there, but now this car is in the garage instead of her Accord. Perhaps her son’s toy?

      That makes 2 Corvair convertibles now that reside within 2 blocks of me. The other one is a yellow first gen.

    • DOTS- Cadillac

      Note the wheels- a restomod, in a lovely shade of green.

      @RallyWrench Awesome! That’s a good looking truck, and very well equipped for what you’d want in an old pickup truck.

      And that F250 crew cab- chef’s kiss. Enjoy!

    • RE: DD Track Burn: Cult imports

      @EssExTee if I can take some liberties here:
      Daily the Landy
      Weekend cruise in the pagoda.

      If that doesn’t work, then flip those two and I’ll off road the Landy.

      No matter what, burn the Saab.

    • RE: DOTS around town today.

      @Genesis_Haysenhox They're cool, and I'm not really a truck guy. This one seemed like it was driven - it wasn't filthy, but it wasn't shiny clean like the guy never drove it, either. Funny thing is that after I took the picture, I walked up to it (my car is behind it) and realized the driver was sitting in it, LOL.

    • RE: To be honest, this was ill-advisable

      @Shop-Teacher Yikes! That’s not a fun return ride at all.

      Yeah the temperature dropped late afternoon- I wore shorts to my sons tee ball practice and quickly regretted it.

      Glad you made it safe!!

    • RE: Here is a small glimpse of a steering wheel and a sliver of dash. Can you savants figure out my newest vehicular purchase?

      @Qaaaaa OK, so I was VERRRYYYY close then - - - the CRX is a Civic variant (though I think they were separate models by then)

      @ttyymmnn I’ve always kind of liked them. That’s a pretty old one. No later than 1973, it appears.
