It was tough between '59 and '60. While I prefer the '59 GMs Dodges and Desotos to the '60s, the Ford Plymouth and Imperial redesign combined with the fact GMs are just a little cleaned up from the previous year pushed me 1960. Its hard to choose one year, especially the more you think about it. Read more
You make an excellent case. 1970 was my number two choice but seeing these all of these cars in list form is making me reconsider. Read more
Good find, its neat to read the story behind these. I can't imagine the days of a 100 dollar '59 Cadillac Read more
Very cool, I've never heard about/seen that before, I'll have to read up on it. Thanks for posting! Read more
Thanks! I would have loved to see a row of Mercedes and Studebakers sitting side by side at a dealership. Its hard to imagine now. Read more
Thanks, I appreciate it! Read more
Thanks, great video! It isn't too surprising the Lark never caught on with the Police. I guess at that point you can't blame them for trying. Read more
Thanks guys! I really appreciate it and I'm glad you are enjoying the weekends. Read more

@benn454: Glad you enjoyed it! I'm not sure exactly what they were running the 11 second runs on but it was in 69 when people were hitting those numbers. It was probably on a set of the better race tires available at the time which leaves me wondering with everyone else exactly what one could do with some tires. Read more
@Wild_Horse_of_the_Osage: That Polara is already gone, sounds like it would have been a lot of sub $1500 fun. Read more
@idiot king: Cool scout. Great find for less than $1500. Read more
@Slave2anMG: @RalphieDC: Sounds like I would be fine if you two don't have an issue. From an outside perspective it doesn't look like anyone over 5' 10" or 180 LBS would be able to get in to one. There goes one of my excuses. Read more
Once it gets nice again, I am absolutely planning to take to take a car spotting trip to the Vineyard. I'm hoping to get my old dirt bike (road legal) running to take over on the ferry and spend a day cruising the Island. I can imagine the exotic car spotting is great in the summer. Read more
Glad you enjoyed the write up. The lack of top image was actually my mistake although I initially blamed the system. I'm not involved with the inner voodoo of what works and what doesn't (thankfully) but I know Ray has mentioned there are people working on it through the weekend. I think all we can do currently is… Read more
Looks like you are at 200 ft-lbs for the Chevy. Read more
Good point, but I was actually just referring my own 4 vehicles (listed above). All four of them have a higher ft-lbs rating than horsepower. Sorry for the confusion. Read more
