A Horse With No Name

Actually not a bad looking car...a little detailing might bring it out to being quite the nice driver. Mechanical issues would seem easy to take care of. A couple grand and she might be sweet. Chris

INTERSTATE HIGHWAY

...and GM isn't the only one with the idea that FWD is the way to go... http://www.autobloggreen.com/2009/07/16/ru...eplacement-com/ I think I'm going to buy an old 50's truck and give up on modern car makers. In about 3 or 4 years there will be nothing outside of the MINI that will appeal to me. ...and people who are passionate about what they drive will be the ones getting the shaft. Chris

Agreed. Seems as if we want zero creativity in everything anymore.. Chris

I feel the same way, Camino. The Sosltice thing is starting to play with me about as bad as the G8 ST thing is playing with you. Like I said...GM will fail at playing Toyota. Chris

We have five kids and five cats. Each Cat has "adopted" one of our children...and our family (other than the bathroom with the litter boxes) is all the better for it. Animals and cars are two things that make life worth living, IMHO. Chris

+1 Chris

Actually, I think it might have been Island Coral, as it was kind of a "peachy" pink. Chris

Actually the 72 Torino is a good looking car, before the uggly 5 MPH bumpers... I remember being a kid and everyone wanted a Torino when I was in elementary school because Starsky and Hutch drove one... Chris

I would agree. People still and RWD cars. Where would GM be if they still built a RWD Grand Prix and Cutlass? Is anyone else around here old enough to remember how every parking lot in the US seemed to be just full of these cars in 67, 77 or 87? They had a winning formula, which people want still...and refuse to build it. Idiots. Chris

GM chasis engeneers did their work. Why do you think a (modified) version of the prev. gen CTS is so successful as a road racing car? GM is like a bipolar dysfunctional child-brilliant when it wants to be, really bad at other times... This is a time when GM is brilliant! Chris

...which is why I have a 70 Charger in my sig. With the Italians running things, there is hope for the American auto industry. Pretty bad when Italians are better at making American cars than Americans. And yes, GM will refuse to learn this lesson. Everything other than the Camaro and CTS that has any individuality will be $h! canned. (damn, I'm starting to sound like smk!) Toyota failed when they tried to run their company like GM, GM will fail when they try to run their company like Toyota. Trust me on this one... Chris

Nice upgrade! Chris

Getting your hands on that Monte would almost make it worth loosing the 'bird

I'll check. Today, of all things... Model A ford, 28-29 roadster... Mach 1 Mustang, 1969, white, nice Ford Torino, 1970 4 door, well preserved Chris

If your really intersted I might be able to get some. Car is in PRIMO condition, hence the price. Chris

Sounds like a winner to me... Chris

ding, ding, ding, we have the correct answer, sir. Chris

Actually...I got a reverse powerflush on my Safari Van, and it worked wonders at getting everything out. Cost me something like 60 bucks and the system was CLEAN after it was done... Now if we could just get it to do a burnout on Brice Road...we'd be all set... Chris

...yes it is...hope he gets it... Chris

Corvette came after the car I am thinking of... Chris

...the result of automotive induced Celibacy. Chris

But your Cavalier thread is a good example of what is right about Cheers and Gears. We are all...in our own way...GM fanatics. The Cavi was the car that made me fall in love with small cars. Read about eleventy billion of my posts and you'll see how I feel about small cars. I'm just glad someone else understands the "love" of a Cavi... Chris

But we enjoy it when you are miserable... Chris
