    Cars that are still doing well in a soft market. Mopar leads the way.

    Swinger wasn't a fast back, I like the Duster better. :)

    A great car is the star of a new TV show coming in May 2025

    Sort of surprised that it got cancelled so fast, after being in the works for five years and getting favorable reviews. At least none of the four Dusters used in filming got blown up. If FUBAR could make the second season, then this show should have been able to as well. :)

    Post up facts and things that hardly anyone knows...... (for entertainment purposes only. NO need to fact check)

    Even with flight suit and gloves on, a pilot of the SR-71 could get burned by touching the front wind screen. Made of 1 1/4" quartz, the window could reach 600 degree temperatures at top speed. Without air conditioning, the pilot would be overheated. The plane got so hot that after landing...

    Samaritan's Purse will retire their DC-8 this year, it is the last operational DC-8 flying anywhere. They replaced it with a 767f. This DC-8 was built in 1968, it had a long life, and other than having four engines it doesn't really look out of place along side new jets. Tail number N782SP...

    Another Reason Against These EVs...

    Even if EV is less efficient, they're still cheaper to 'fill up' every month. Some people are only looking for that, not really caring whether it's "green" or has energy losses.

    Can you think of a car that's based strictly on function?

    Back in the day, you couldn't get much more utilitarian and strictly functional than the Citroën 2CV. It was meant for poor rural farmers who hadn't been able to afford a vehicle. Introduced in 1948, it continued all the way up to 1990. It was extremely minimalistic with its two cylinder...

    How to achieve 425 HP and 500 TQ from a 400 cubic in engine?

    Although Edelbrock owns Lunati, they use Comp Cams to actually make the Lunati cams. Now they're phasing them out, if you're on the Lunati website, they no longer have any cams listed in that section of their catalog.

    Petty v Baker 1973 Daytona 500 - Check out the fender tweaking!!

    Quarter windows are different, so maybe they're different years. Wheel openings were larger on the 73-74 versions.
