Nice video with no overdubbing of crappy music or commentary.  Just pure engine/car/road noise.

For some reason Europeans and Asians love to overdub driving videos. Drives me fucking nuts

Love this channel showing reviews of European cars from the 1960s and 1970s. Here's a Fiat Ritmo 75, sold as the Strada in the United States. Love the emotionless German commentary.  :thumbsup:

That showed up for me as well, as do a lot of "barn find" vids. My theory on this phenomenon:

1.) The car was stolen
2.) The owner stopped making payments (i.e., hiding from the repo man)
3.) The car was involved in some sort of issue, like hit-n-run
4.) The owner is hoarder (as in, some sort of mental illness)

I don't watch a lot of those videos so you'd probably know better than me, but it seems like a lot of them are like some little old lady's late husband's old car that she keeps for sentimental reasons.

This one's a bit different.  Sheds full of classic domestic and Euro/UK marques.  Mostly low mileage and likely in running, or near running condition.  A car guys paradise.

Or a mom's boy that went off to war and never came back. I knew a rich man who bought and outfitted a vacation lake home, including a nice little speedboat and a Land Rover (what country house is complete without one?). He rarely visited and is now dead. Last I heard the house was still tied up in probate. Whoever gets it might even overlook it in the assets (he was that rich).

Of course in a lot of cases I suspect Cougs is right.
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?

I can't take that title seriously. Its satire, right? The Dale was a cardboard and plywood scam job.

Yes, "a car ahead of its time" was a slogan some publications used in the days when it came out.  If you'd watch the video......

Mario is just a complete class act.  He a completely genuine guy.  Also extremely friendly when you meet him. This was shot about 5 miles from my house

He was part of the Golden Era of racing along with names such as Dan Gurney, A.J. Foyt, Parnelli Jones, Jim Clark and so many others.  He must have a million stories.

A35 AMG doing some hill-climbing. Gorgeous engine sound. That's also the same driver's POV like in my A250, except for the electric seat controls, AMG badging, interior lighting and that circular sport mode control button on the steering wheel.

Very cool design.  Not sure why it never really became popular.

Two-stroke diesel, so it will never pass modern emissions requirements.

Looks like a step up from Karting.  Are they kids?  Hard to tell.

All age levels, apparently. Well, probably no toddlers, but with those lunatic Finns, you never know.
