O Canada. One day I'll pull the trigger. I just don't have a safe place to park one. And I refuse to sell the Miata to make room.

I can't imagine how much work that would be to figure out.!

Nightmare. Better off giving someone $800 to kick him in the nuts.

ewww. I mean, it could get niced up inside. But RHD in the US is straight-up dangerous.

You've driven them in KAF. They aren't that bad. This Lotus is pretty gross though.

I imagine there's a warehouse somewhere, like Raiders of the Lost Ark, with hundreds of dusty crates of these...

Those are: semi-mythical?

After WWII, there were ads for "Jeeps, new in crate" posted all over the country, but there is little evidence there was ever a large supply of crated Jeeps, or really any Jeeps crated out of the factory.

Jeeps were assembled and shipped complete. Its possible some shipper or some army depot received them amd crated them for storage, but no large cache of boxed up GPWs has ever been located.
Maybe we need to start off small. I mean, they don't let you fuck the glumpers at Glumpees without a level 4 FuckPass, do they?

Bad enough there on 12mph roads and decent driver visibility. Short car at real driving speeds would be horrible!

My dad had one of those (maybe a Plymouth not a Chrysler?) with the Dodge body kit. Supposedly you could increase the boost quite a bit and have a good time.

Yeah, supposedly they can make 30 PSI with the stock turbo.

For $1500 I might try to find out.

$1500 with an hour left. My cutoff was $2000. It was a run in the last 5 minutes.

I would have done $1500, for the novelty of it. Terrible cars that lasted 5-6 years, tops, aside from the odd unicorn like this one.

Never been much for 80s cars, but a really nice V8 '84 Tbird would be nice.

Those were the best generation of T-Bird. The '83 was leagues ahead of anything else at the time.

Front end seems a bit low.  Should've used a Windsor.
