  1. To be followed by numerous "I didn't get my copy yet" and "I got my copy" posts...
  2. Do you have the owners manual for the car? There are probably instructions on how to release the shifter when the battery is dead. I had to deal with the interlock when I had to repair the shifter in a 2004 Taurus.
  3. Two Dodge Magnum wagons, at different locations.
  4. Were there problems with head-on crashes on that road?
  5. Saturday: Passed a really nice 68 Camaro RS hardtop while riding in my friend's Cougar XR-7G, also a really nice red 66 Mustang hardtop going the other way. My friend had his latest flip car parked in his driveway: A Maserati convertible, not sure of year or model but it looked really nice.
  6. I've seen an Orange Crate body used with the Revell street rod chassis (3-window, 5-window, etc) to make a chopped tudor sedan.
  7. Perhaps someone from the magazine staff could chime in and explain? Larry? Dave?
  8. You can get the Moebius chassis from ebay sellers who "part out" kits .
  9. Are they bringing back the "429 Corvette"?
  10. Probably "built" using a sawzall or a death wheel.
  11. Chevy Astro. When they first came out I thought they looked dull and ugly. As a Ford guy, I thought the Aerostar was better. Later I owned a GMC Safari, then an Astro. Good family cars, great on road trips. When I sold the Astro, with over 200,000 miles, it would still go 80 MPH all day and get around 22 MPG.
  12. My 71 LTD had the 400 as well. And yes, it was quick as you mentioned. 400 was pretty torquey. Plus, it got 15-20 MPG.
  13. Missing link is doing a 72 Montego GT? Did you get that from ML or someone else?
  14. I had a 71 LTD, similar to this one, for a couple of years back in the mid 70s
  15. I have a couple of the cast metal frames/chassis. IIRC, R&D Unique made them
  16. A red last-gen Thunderbird with a rear-mounted spare and fins like a 57. Weird.
  17. Trip to West LA: Subaru Crosstrek with Vermont license plates BMW i8 Buick TourX A Lamborghini of some sort, going the other way on Santa Monica Blvd. Electric hummer Several tesla trucks.
  18. Black ID Buzz at the local VW dealership.
  19. A really nice 914 on display at the Galpin Porsche palace.
