    Over-the-top but I love it...

    BMW M-1..... I just always thought these were beautiful cars... the '80s ski-parka paintjob not so much, but, hey, check those seats! I think I had a North Face or CB-Sports ski jacket that matched those back in the day... ... still, just a burly looking car.:thumbsup...

    Anybody in for service in Irving TX?

    From a post on Moparts.org; the poster's ID said he was from Irving, TX.... maybe not exactly SVT-trained? That's okay, they probably know how to remove the rear clam and reinstall it correctly, even if they can't find the clam release (or owner's manual....)...

    S7 for $300k obo! (not mine...)

    Not mine, but it sounds like a steal for someone with a spare $300k.... :biggrin...

    Saw a Tesla launch... impressive!

    Driving in the Malibu canyons the other day I came across four engineers from Tesla driving one of their validation prototypes. I chased them down (no mean feat in the canyons, as I was in my 'Cuda at the time!), had a bit of a chat, and then watched as they changed drivers and took off...

    Serious RC GT!

    Haven't seen them THIS big before.... ... sounds kind of like a McCullough or Poulan, but maybe the aftermarket will work up a sport exhaust? :biggrin http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Y3Yn14MhUQ&mode=related&search=

    Many Vintage GT prints for sale...

    Hi kids... found a blurb in MuscleCar Enthusiast about a place called ArteHouse that is now reprinting (up to 24x36) many vintage photos and ads from the Ford archive... they have 60-odd GT photos on their site, many of which I'd never seen. I haven't ordered anything, so I can't comment on...

    Clarkson GT compilation...

    Hope it's not a re-re-repost... someone's edited up a compilation of Jeremy's (mis)adventures in GT-land. Nice finish... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CNpbTKueKFE

    Sequoia Nat'l Park ideas? Bony?

    Thinking of taking the woman for a drive this week from LaLa to Sequoia National Park, drive through the tree, smell the woods, etc... Any suggestions for choice lodging, things not to miss, or seasonal advisories to watch out for in the next week or two? Crowded/empty ratio? Snowed...

    O/T Mopars at the Mansion pics...

    Hi kids... I know a few of you guys have some vintage Mopars and such, so I figured I'd share some pics of a cool event I just went to at the Playboy Mansion.... A whole bunch of rare Mopars on the lawn, sponsored by Mopar Collector's Guide Magazine. For some reason, I think bony would have...

    Repro wheels from TeamIII...

    Hi GT owners.... while prowling, I found this company that makes repro wheels for Cobras with fake knock-off centers. They looked pretty good IMHO. Don't know if they'd be rated for GT speeds (edit: or have the right bolt pattern. duh.), but thought I'd pass on the linkie...

    Is it stupid...

    Is it stupid to buy the GT without having ridden in one, much less driven one? I am ready to push the button, but the car will probably be shipped to me from a far-away dealer... and I realize I've only sat in stationary GT's a couple of times. Did any of you guys buy one without getting a...

    L.A. GT owners-newbie wants advice...

    Hello GT'ers... I am an inch away from getting a Heritage GT for my happy-birthday-to-me present... and I'd love to get your opinions on things. My background: I've got a '70 'Cuda convertible and a '70 Charger R/T and a 06 Magnum SRT8. Never had a supercar or an exotic, never had a...

    White or Heritage?

    Well, it might be a go! (Woman agrees that the pool can wait another year...). :biggrin: Problem is, she likes white with blue stripes, and I think I just might have the cojones to go for the heritage. She says I'll be like "too-much-guy" in the heritage, but I argued that any color GT is...
