    I'm not a big fan of the Amerigasmic paint job, and the 4.2 will never be a good as the later 4.0, and a 4 or 5 speed would be a preferred transmission choice.


    Overall, my inner redneck loves this monstrosity, but of course, no one that likes this vehicle has $15k to spend on it. If we were voting, I'd have to regretfully click on the pipe.

    @smalleyxb122: You know what... that's exactly what I thought, too.


    Four-oh, manual, slightly faded Fairway Green paint, it'd be worth ten, prob'ly.

    I really want to hate this thing. The visible frame is pretty ugly imho, but it doesn't look too bad overall. Plus, those headlights are killer!

    They should drive it to Centralia, Pennsylvania and see how it makes out.


    That's probably the only fire that could ever kill it.

    That axle won't last long with 35's. Should have opted for a '75 or earlier to get the dana 44.

    I'll "guess" 180 for the Opel and 260 for the MG. (now how do I change the time stamp, so this shows before Murilee's post announcing the totals?)

    The newly christened Team Israel will have the last laugh, what with that thing running eight times further on a single tank of gas.

    Gustavus Cougar,


    For some reason the Elders of Zion must have forgotten to cut me my weekly checks for my share of running the world.


    As for the Opular Dependence team, the punishment was just, an effective way to get a point across in good humor and fellowship instead of confrontation.


    The Bozoer Rebbe highly approves, even if he can't race on Shabbas. Like Walter Sobchek, the Rebbe doesn't roll on Shabbas.


    Though, if I was the judge, I'd make them dress up like chassidim and make them go door to door near Louie Farakhan's mosque, collecting for a yeshiva.

    Things aren't going so well for the MGB-GT, which has been removed from the track for the rest of the day (due to really scary off-road adventures). The Opel GT has been a regular visitor to the pits, but has managed to stay on the track for something approaching 50% of the time.
