it was all downhill after the yellow submarine
Try it again.
I wanted to pick up one of these Mustang 60th emblems for my computer or toolbox. Finally got a part number and a price from a Ford dealer.
Yours for only $364 a pop.
For a 4.5" piece of decorative plastic.
A new one to me.
I think I have a Dart and Valiant book somewhere that shows a better overhead view of the chassis. Had to have been fun to run.
Apparently things went to complete shit after I left, at least when it came to certifying the Dutro's engine.
No idea how long this affair lasted, though.
They should be, to the best of my limited knowledge.
And hey, since we're talking Elevens now I'm inevitably gonna bring up the Eleven that was surgically wrapped around a Slant Six with a Hyperpak...

If we're accepting Caterhams we should be able to accept Westfield's solution to that quandary

woefully short on Elevens
The Drive is your best source of information on that.
NO DISASSEMBLE
And what the faired-in flip happened here?!
My brain hurts. I can't stop staring at this.
Did they retrofit Mk III Transit headlamps?
And my inner EE and tractor nerds are giggling at the misspelling of "Deutsch" as "Deutz."
Still a little funny for my American brain to see Kentucky-built trucks in the most Aussie of configurations and situations...
Also strange how lighting regulations morphed the look of the OG Aeromax's fenders.
Nice to see the (amazing) Ford Heritage Vault start to digitize Aussie-spec Louisville Truck brochures.
Nothing like a RHD LTL 9000 with round lamps and cast-spoke wheels...
Kind of wish we could retroactively apply these tarrifs on Chinese-made knicknacks to all the stupid shit the right bought over the past 4-8 years...
Matches how I spec'ed mine.
A family showed up at our local playground rocking not only a Nissan NV3500 Passenger Van, but one that had been blessed with a Quigley 4x4 conversion.
I wanted to shake their hands, but, uh, they were rather full wrangling all their kids...
I'm used to OEMs badge-engineering a competitor's product in order to fill a hole in their lineup.
What I'm not used to seeing is an OEM bringing a badge-engineered product to market and then **not marketing it in the slightest.**
Good luck finding the Hino S-Series on Hino's own site.
I am of the mindset that A-body Barracudas are prime rally car fodder, and this video isn't helping sway me from that opinion.
(and yes, I know who Scott Harvey is)
I thought my original copy of the '63 Chrysler Turbine Car operator's manual was obscure enough, but my new goal apparently needs to be to source a copy of the GM Delco navigation system manual for any of the Apollo missions.
Fortunately, several of these have been digitized and are online.
The men carrying out Musk's coup are
Akash Bobba,
Edward Coristine,
Luke Farritor,
Gautier Cole Killian,
Gavin Kliger, and
Ethan Shaotran.
Remember when these motherfuckers were (allegedly) so goddamn pissed about Hillary's email server?
They apparently have zero qualms schlepping sensitive data - possibly even including yours - onto something with the same, if not less, security.
Look up the Alt National Parks accounts on Facebook and the like.
It's real, it's happening, and it's beyond bad.
RIP, crew cab Hino XL models; we literally barely knew ye...
Have plans the evening of April 3rd?
Come say hi, enjoy a historical lecture by yours truly, and take in the area's newest automotive museum.
This was a delightful two hours of both insider Corvette history and one of the most frank walk-throughs of GM program development you'll likely encounter.
Worth your time and listen.
