    The color plus automatic trans just screams Excitement!!! Got to say, though, one neat aspect of the J cars was how diverse they were...5 brands, a variety of engines, and the Cavalier had 5 bodystyles at one time..
  2. Robert Hall
    Ghastly. Wrong on so many levels.
  3. Robert Hall
    Yes, probably bigger money pits than my sister's '84 500SEL. They build the 600 into the '80s, IIRC.
  4. Robert Hall
    Those cars were sweet...huge w/ incredibly complex systems (hydraulics for power windows, door locks, etc).
  5. Robert Hall
    Agreed..it is worrying. Hope he's all right.

    It was starting to look a bit old by '60...the basic design lasted from '51-62.

    the Nah, the 180/190 was kind of like a C-Class. The 300 was the Big Dog..

    The '67 GTO is pretty sweet...though the '65 is my favorite of the early GTOs.

    One thing I do like about contemporary VW interiors (I've looked closely at the Golf, New New Beetle, and Eos interiors, not so much at the new Passat or Jetta) is they are generally quite cleanly designed, logically laid out w/ solid switchgear and decent materials..I like the fact that they don't have the wierdness or overwrought quality IMO that so many smaller car interiors have (i.e. Fords, Hyundais, Hondas).

    Don't care for the purple, like the wheels though. Get rid of the Halloween junk, put a back seat in, paint it a late '50s color scheme like coral and white and it would make a nice wagon..

    That looks very much like the one that was here in my 'hood in Phoenix about 4 years ago...

    The G8 was based on the '06 era VE series Commodore, I've read that the '14 will be have an MCE (VF) so I'm assuming the interior will be refreshed.. Here's an article on the VF, sounds like lots of updates are expected... http://news.drive.com.au/drive/motor-news/vf-commodore-a-massive-update-20120322-1vlw9.html

    Sweet...neat to see one w/ cloth and w/o woodgrain.
  14. Robert Hall
    That's the Colorado one I saw back around '99...
  15. Robert Hall
    I like this...my favorite year of Impala and favorite bodystyle...and I like brown (original paint). http://www.oldride.com/classic_cars/241961.html

    My brother had a red '74 Vega GT w/ a 350 for a little while in the late '70s...don't recall what he traded it on...
  17. Robert Hall
    Could be...the slant 6 came out I believe the same year as unit bodies at Dodge and Plymouth (1960), so it may have been part of an effort to make the cars lower...also was used in the new-for-60 and painfully ugly Valiant.

    Looks like it's got a cassette deck....I could hook my iPod up w/ a cassette adapter, put on a lot of early '80s New Wave, post-punk and '80s Brit Invasion music, a Members Only jacket (had a brown one and a gray one back in the day), and Ray Bans and 'ooze down the street in a gray Cadillac'...
  19. Robert Hall
    Neat..those '71-72 Sprints seem rather scarce...I think I've only seen one in person (a silver '71 SP-454 at a car show about 12-13 years ago).
  20. Robert Hall
    The Vega has potential..ditch the window tint and '80s wheels (needs Cragar SS for that '70s look). That '69 Plymouth Fury convertible in the background looks interesting..
  21. Robert Hall
    I've thought about getting 'CUBELFE'. But I don't always have a cube w/ every gig.. One of the best I've seen is 'GEEKSTA' on a Suburban in Denver.
  22. Robert Hall
    Nice... I like the '71 and '72 front ends more than the '73 (awkward bumper, IMO).. regarding Balthy's comment, I think the tallness of the '71 front end and how far the headlights are inset from the edges may make the front look narrower from some angles.
  23. Robert Hall
    These are just FWD midsize sedan appliances, though...I doubt if very many of their buyers can even comprehend the difference between a 4 or 6.
