Automotive

This is a car which always fascinated me. Its super big engine ( for our European standards, at least ), its power, the brutal behavior of the whole are just mesmerizing. Not the most refined, nor the most sophisticated, but this car has a cool and a wow ...  

But the final one always an incredibly capable and rapid (on a track) super car. Quite a feat and quite a car.

In scale 1:18 only though!😆

Yes i've driven a few, as am living on the Crazy Side of the Pond. POWER.... but what is this thing called 'handling' or 'control'. Who cares!!! It goes straight, YES. More of that!!! LOL Later ones are pretty darn scary but not toooooo bad. Corvette imho... 

Cool Trucks and Jeeps is whole another world too Dodge Ram SRT-10 with a Viper V10 Source: Kendall Dodge Chrysler Jeep Ram ...  

In my estimation

No point in trying to teach it good manners, because then the side pipes will go, insulation will be added, traction control, people will ask for a sound system, Apple Car Play, heated seats, etc. Would you want to ADD 100-200 kg to your Alpine? I think n... 

a bygone era. Love them!

rather frequently, not so much anymore. There are still a few around where I live, they come out on a nice day to drive through the park, or go to the Plaza.

on my computer, a game called Need For Speed on Amiga 500. This was my favorite car, 7.9 liters of pure torque, it was reaally hard to keep the car straight. Should be fun to drive one for real.

My pal Maurice has had several, and Dale had a few too. I’ve had a few test miles ! Cazalea ...  

. . . 383s, possibly 440s.

but I'm afraid I really didn't look at the Challengers, I was all over the Vipers.

. . . based on the hood scoops. Almost certainly Carter AVS four-barrels.

I rented one of these in Miami back in 2007. I hadn’t driven a manual gearbox car in a while - or stick shift as it’s called in the US. I couldn’t believe that I was so bad in missing the 1st to 2nd change - kept going into 4th from 1st. When my son and I...  

My perfect 2 vehicle garage: Viper Hummer ...  

While the Hummer was fun off-road, the 70-100 miles of driving each way to mountains and desert were a drag, not to mention the parking issues. At that time I had the Rampside which was quirky enough for me without the total lunacy of the Hummer. So I set...  

My first vehicle was a 1978 Scout II. It wasn’t until my1985 RX-7 did I realize how abusive the Scout’s suspension was. It was like riding in a buckboard over the mountain pass. You could feel each expansion joint on I-70. I have no illusions of the punis... 

Then foolishly sold this to a pal (because it didn't have power steering so my wife couldn't drive it) Only 4x4 power convertible top sold in America! (in the Sixties) Cazalea PS the Butch Jeepster Commando ...  

Can you put a number on the cars you’ve owned? Your posts always surprise me.

No, the red one was like that when I bought it, though not running well. I did the electrical and mechanical stuff to get it going after it had sat in a warehouse/collection for years. ...  

The hardest part of building or creating something is letting it go. You made that Jeepster complete. It was close, but not ready until you were done fixing. I’ve had less than ten cars/trucks in my whole life. Thank you for sharing!

The sold it a couple years later to the Wagoneer King in Texas.

It might be the funniest advertisement ever written by someone selling a used car. Cheers Wojo
