Never thought I'd see an IFS/IRS Jeep concept I actually don't hate on first sight. Body styling isn't really my type, but ground clearance looks great and it appears that it would be pretty drat good in a high speed desert environment if the suspension was tuned properly. e: Just read the placard  40 mile lithium ion plus a DIESEL aux engine?  IN AN AMERICAN BRANDED AUTO? 110mpg?  No one wake me up, don't tell me it's just a concept vehicle, I'm just fine right where I am. kastein fucked around with this message at Aug 23, 2012 around 17:14 |

Don't you need two utes? Yes, the placards are worth reading sometimes. Oh, while I have some time...     This is not the last flying car you'll see.   I don't know what.  Eh. Pedestrian.     Now THIS is something. Warcabbit fucked around with this message at Aug 23, 2012 around 17:40 |

Edit: I saw one of the Thunderbolts a few years back undergoing a restoration, apparently, one was in "barn find" condition, I wish they had left it like that. Not to completely disregard Jungle Pam, but this is fresh as hell. A quote from someone over at the HAMB, years ago Re: Jungle Pam "If you had hooked a generator up to me, Jungle Pam and I would have kept the entire city of New York powered for months." content:  55 Cadillac Eldorado Brougham show car.   And finally this "New" 1937 Cadillac Fleetwood body  the car was never built in the 30s, but built recently from original Fleetwood plans. like this 34 cadillac...

Me too, he just had the whole thing cleaned up and shaved a bit, rolled and pulled fenders and had the entire thing repainted the factory color. Looks incredible. Here is another one. Flame suit is on.

I get you guys are trying to be funny or something, but it would be great if you just used the tags for what they are actually meant for. Not trying to back seat mod or anything, but it just defeats the purpose and isn't funny. I also probably have OCD or something for letting it bother me.

So, we're getting closer to the end of '08. Remember how I said the first SMART cars showed up in 2008? Yep, there's one here. Or... some of it. How smart are these cars? Let's find out.   I'm not sure what this Mada was, but it was freaking gorgeous. I don't think I really caught the LED strips they had in the front.    For some reason, though, this specific perspective below reminds me of a cat. Can't imagine why.   But let's get to something American.    You don't get more American than that.   Stately! Gee, that old LaSalle ran great. And looked good too.      I think that's a Monza GT in the corner there, but the other shots didn't come out. And how could I resist this Studebaker?    Now, here's something for the Europhiles. The Type 718 , I believe... and a modern interpretation. Right, the RS60. Old and New.   I love the grille here.   Sorry about the fuzzy nature of some of these, the light was... intimate. I did try to match perspectives on some shots.     And I think that's basically it for 2008. Oh, wait. No. How do you guys feel about turning left for 500 miles? Warcabbit fucked around with this message at Aug 24, 2012 around 13:54 |

extreme_accordion posted:For lack of trying or for lack of a lift to the track? You are missing out. I can recommend the VSCDA event in September if you are looking for something relatively inexpensive. If you need a hotel many of the sleepy towns just a few minutes away from the track have nice motels and hotels. Portage being one. There's also a great bar in Plymouth that makes one hell of an Old Fashioned.

 http://desmoines.craigslist.org/cto/3227202641.html This... is pretty loving bad rear end. I love the modern twist on an old classic. Even the dash looks almost like it belongs in there. Though the center console kinda blows. Edit: http://desmoines.craigslist.org/cto/3227201056.html This is a drat good price for a relatively clean wagon. It would be easy to throw something decent under the hood, a little bit of body work and a nice paint job, it would be a drat fine boulevard cruiser.
