It's an interesting looking Eurovan..interesting how they've badged the passenger version 'Tourneo' and the cargo version 'Transit'.

So the white one above is a pic of what the 2013 European Transit will look like.. I wonder if they will butch it up for the US market w/ a big chrome grille and giant Ford badge to look more like the current Econoline..

I've read that in a couple places about the GT-40 and Corvair taillights, can't recall which version it was in regards to (Mk I, II or IV)...

Hmmm...1983. My Dad and brother both bought pickups that year, the first one for each of them. My brother bought a new silver and gray two-tone S10 regular cab short bed 2wd, and my Dad bought a low mileage used '79 Dodge Power Wagon short bed 4x4. I learned to drive in it a couple years later..

WHY WHY WHY, THat is a freakin shame! Maybe the owner was a Barney the Dinosaur super fan...

I saw on Windtunnel tonight that Tommy Kendall is coming back to racing soon driving the Viper GTS-R...

I like Agile, not far from Opel's Agila (a Spark-like subcompact below the Corsa).

Corvette

Get your college-age son's girlfriend pregnant (a former manager of mine did just that...)

To go w/ LaCrosse maybe Eau Claire or Des Moines...(French sounding Midwestern city names).

..try and put out a stovetop fire w/ a paper towel.. ...plug in a still wet cell phone after a dunking and attempt at drying..

Yes...the Astra CC would be nice to see here also.

Saw a black '13 Caddy XTS in the parking lot at Trader Joes a few min ago...saw it from behind and down the side...looked tall and narrow, and the deck is really short. Strange. At the local Honda store, I saw a blue-green '61 Ford F100 longbed on their corner display dais..

Cool..

Was a nice cool rainy day today (high was only 97)...had thunderstorms the last couple of nights...I like rainy weather, sleep well on rainy nights.

Inspired by these drawings was this unusual custom Riv.. Here's another Tremulus Tucker sketch.. Lots more here...http://www.kustomrama.com/index.php?title=Tucker_Torpedo

Maybe it's a rear wheel steering design. Speaking of, has there ever been a 4 wheeled production car with steerable rear wheels (and fixed front wheels) ?

The current Econoline is 20 years old... as part of the 'One Ford' plan, they want a common van for North America, Europe, and other markets..

Smaller and lighter sounds like a good idea, make it more of a pure sports car.

I think Colorado has something like that, but a buddy of mine in Denver nearly killed himself several times the first year after buying a Kawasaki Ninja a few years ago...he'd had previous experience w/ a 50cc bike back home in India, but the Ninja was a bit more of a handful.. My brother had several British bikes in the '60s-70s, took off about 20 years from riding after a couple bad accidents, but in the last 15 years has bought several older Yamahas and Hondas...rides the backroads of rural Ohio, seems to have a lot of fun doing it. I've never ridden a bike, but wouldn't mind trying one sometime..though I think I'd prefer a Boxster or other small open sports car.

Shortened Gamma II I've read.

Interesting how the roof trim doesn't go all the way down the A- or C- pillars..

Would be neat to see it here...but with GMNA's fear of hatchbacks I don't see it happening..

Your originally from Ohio dude...camo and a gun rack FTW. Thinking black hood, some of the black wagon wheels, a lift and 35 inch Monster Mudders and black tube bumpers... This is cool...

I love the styling of those late '50s-early '60s sports cars like the BMW 507 and Ferrari California....fantastic proportions, and so obviously RWD...
