This is my 67 dart... was a sraight 6.. Now 340 727 trans posi rear highway gears... white leather interior.... sunday driver.... just sits mostly.. i am playing with my 51 chevy instead right now...
i drive a 2009 honda fit sport here it is doing what it does best. (66x33in credenza!) my wife sometimes lets me drive her 2012 fiat 500 sport
Nice. Love the XB. Unfortunately they were never realeased down under. We've only ever seen the recent models. Such a great custom community in Asia and the US. Seen them with a custom made bento box holder for the passenger seat. Crazy. Mine came w/ 9 speakers/bluetooth, moon roof, leather seats and more.
here's my ride (not quite a longboard, but in the same vein... sorta): 2008 bianchi san jose i put new pedals on in october, those eggbeaters finally gave up the ghost. tough old guy, this one... went up against a jeep liberty (with me on it) and lost. i ended up with a fractured elbow, and all he needed was some new grip tape and a new front rim.
A little xion xc cause I am broke. But it's quick and handles well and got me to let go of a bit more of my ego. I do miss driving a truck though, miss it bad.
I drive a 94 Volvo 850 that does not look half as good as this one. Just crossed 222,222 miles last month! Reverse is starting to go and the drivers side window is broken. Oh and the A/C is out and it was 87 here in Austin yesterday. Can't wait for summer.
...used to drive this, for a year- that's me in the driver's hatch. M2A2 Bradley Infantry Fighting Vehicle (up armored) 600 hp Cummings engine, really smooth ride, drove like a big Cadillac. It had pivot steer, where you just power up the engine and crank the wheel in one direction and it would spin in place. You could do power slides in gravel or large areas of blacktop, I think it weighed 38 tons.
A friend from work bought a Fit a couple of years ago, and I was pretty surprised. Then I went for a ride in it. That thing has so much room for a little car. It's amazing. Team that up with a 37 mpg average and the fact that he hasn't had a single thing break in 100k miles, and it seems like a pretty wise purchase.
yep.. nothing has gone wrong with it so far (knock on wood). has been a great "little" car! and i got my car averaging a bit over 39mpg (city/hwy)
Coop's Ford Falcon Wagon is my favorite vehicle in the thread. Not that I'm an applicable shopper, but I still search Craigslist for Ford Falcon's FS about 1-2x per month I envy those with real classic cars, even if they're in well-worn shape. It gets too hot here for me to consider a car without A/C ever again (over 60+ days of consecutive triple digits each year) - blakewest know's what I'm talkin about. I have had an 80 Rabbit Pickup SporTruck, 90 Corrado G60, 92 GTI, and 04 R32 (just got rid of that). From 2008 through this year, I worked at an enormous VW joint, but all of those cars were purchased before said job started. I think Connell's bus is bigger than Scott's! Just washed both of mine yesterday - an 03 BMW 530i & an 02 Honda S2000. Hopefully I ditch both of them for something bigger & better this Spring/Summer.
Trying really hard to convince myself to just sell it but it might have to come home with me instead. 28 Model-A Rumbleseat Sport Coupe, original motor and generator.
^^^ Fuck yeah. That baby looks in immaculate condition! You've got a thing of beauty there. It would be a tragedy to sell it IMO.
I have a thing for old cars, that one is a beauty Daimyo! Can't believe the condition either, perfect.
It certainly doesn't have the cool factor of Dustin's antique ride, but I pick up my 2012 Golf TDI four door tomorrow morning. I've driven stick for the last 11 years, but opted for the DSG dual clutch automated manual this time around. It's pretty cool to mash on the gas pedal, have the car take off, and not be able to feel it change gears at all.
