IIRC it was a kit sold in the 60s and 70s, Volkswagen based. And totally awesome.

As Nero Danced posted:drat, good find. There used to be a p1800es around my town, never had the chance to talk to the owner. Somehow they look even prettier in person than they do in pictures. At my last job, we went to install internet at a guy's house, and in his garage he had a partially restored P1800 and a donor/resto candidate P1800. It's hard enough to find one in the midwest, much less two in the same place.

G-Mach posted:Fact: Wisconsin has more bars and cows than people. One intersection here has a bar, next to a bar, across the street from a bar, which is a building away from a bar, which is next to a gas station that is next to another bar. The restaurant on this corner also has a bar.

I know for a fact that, from my mom's house in WI near the shores of Lake Michigan to Las Vegas, you can drive it in 27 hours solo with a half hour nap at a rest stop in Nebraska or Iowa (I forget which one) I sure as gently caress wouldn't do it again though

How long until a subdivision gets built close to it and the people who knowingly moved next to a race track complain about the noise and get it shut down?

Seat Safety Switch posted:Yeah this is basically what I want to do with the '90 S15, except keep the 4.3L and do it up like a GNX tribute truck. When I owned a '93 S10 and an 87 GN, I always figured that if the GN got t-boned to oblivion I'd grab the running gear and stuff it in the S10 and paint the fucker black fortunately the GN never got t-boned. Unfortunately, I sold both vehicles. That S10 had the gutless 2.8 and a 5-speed but goddammit it was kind of fun Dr.Smasher fucked around with this message at 06:18 on Dec 15, 2014 |

Wasabi the J posted:Vegas has been doing this with repossessed cars and it's great, because they generally don't go after speeding more than texting, swerving, and lane-changes without signalling. When I lived there I saw someone being pulled over by a base Chrysler 300 and a goddamn Nissan Altima. I was told they would rent a bunch of cars, but that was probably before major budget issues.

I haven't been through the whole issue yet, but I just read some poo poo about the Ford EXP for example. And a small blurb about the 1990 Fiero. Not gonna lie, I always thought the Escort EXP looked neat.

ishikabibble posted:California is actually rolling out e-ink license plates that kind of do that. I don't know exactly what level of control you have over it, but you can set a custom message to display while you're stopped, and I think you can display some kind of message below the plate number too. That's just a countdown to someone putting 'I eat rear end' on their plate, honestly.

Is there any truth to this, and can anyone elaborate on the physics involved? Someone here needs to look up the Tyrrell P34. Mostly because I'm on mobile, otherwise I'd have links and stuff
