    You guys know I'm into '73 Grand Ams.

    I've got three of them, none are finished. Two 455's and one hot rodded 400. I know a lot about GA's but even I learned some new things. Basically the second half of this video. Not putting down Mopars, I have 4 of them.

    The Pontiac Trans Sport dustbuster van or other weird cars you like.

    Now that these vans have gone down as a historic failure I really want one. It has to be white and in relatively good shape. Let me know if you find one. It looks like the F-ing Space shuttle. Are there any oddball cars you like that everyone else hates?

    Guess the vehicle in the photo.

    My son is an engineer for the Colorado Department of Transportation. He sent this photo to me. Guess which vehicle he drove today instead of his state-issued truck. Hint: It's a 1971.

    Let's just talk cash money. How much to covert a 1970 Coronet 500 to a 5 or 6 speed manual?

    The car: 1970 Coronet 500 very stock in semi rough shape. hardly any rust. 383 column shift auto. Realistically changing to a Tremec 5 or 6 speed manual? $$$$$? I'd like to recreate a car I lusted for in high school. Huge air shocks, big rear meats.

    For those without Motor Trend. Hemi in a junkyard Belvedere.

    It's on regular YouTube. Warning, they skip a lot of the build. Another one from YouTube. I bought a rusty 1969 Charger and it's worse than I thought.

    Theft recovery photo of the Kia. Follow up.

    They did allow her to grab two jackets from the recovered Kia Seltos SUV. I wonder if it will go to the Denver Copart auction. The window says, BIOHAZARD METH AND FETENYL POSITIVE. She got a $15,000 settlement for it. High miles for the year. 135,000 miles.

    An interesting car theft story close to home.

    My ex, Jacque, walked into her garage a couple of weeks ago only to find her Kia Seltos stolen. Here are the details in the order in which they were discovered. She didn't leave the garage door open so someone must have opened it manually, making less noise. Her keys were in the SUV. (I...

    A dance scene from a very strange movie. I think you'll like it.

    Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets. The script/story kinda sucks but the visuals are AWESOME throughout the entire movie. This dance scene just appeared out of nowhere.

    Let's recommend a new vehicle for an old girlfriend.

    Here's the deal. Yes, she's very pretty and she's married but we talk all the time. I know she wants a new vehicle and is about to pull the trigger. I would say she's upper middle class. The last car she bought was a used Mercedes convertible. Which I would not have recommended. I think...
