Man, I'd like to have one of those manifolds on my coffee table in the living room. A work of art that is.

Matt your work continues to astound. Is there a hall of fame for fabrication?

[mmoore]

Thanks guys.

Spotted on vacation two weeks ago...the Grand Wagoneer looks like a vehicle that you park at your second home. The Willys on the other hand looks like a vehicle that you drive when gathering firewood or when you are heading into town on Saturday night and you are ready to rumble.

The bumper on the Willys is...modern. I'd guess frame swap but the hub/axle looks correct.

Imagine how pleased your wife would be. An HR Giger aesthetic right in the living room.

My best guess is that it was necessary to get it legally titled?

I may be wrong but I don't think it applies to old cas unless the car in question is registered as a newer one (which would mean the frame may be newer)

So...if I want a car that drives like that but won't be ridiculous as a semi-adult in my late 30s, what would you recommend?

Honda S2000.
It comes with a built in bike rack !

Mark you in fact do rule all.

If you need to dump your current one I can find room in my garage to store it.

Buick, a brand that might not be on the radar of some folks here, has been producing a few lookers of late. They're bringing back the wagon too. This gets my attention.

The other day in Providence, RI I'm at the hotel downtown and there's a new Lacrosse parked right there. It was very attractive in a sedan sort of way. I saw it in profile and at first I thought it was a Mercedes E550 or thereabouts.

GM has upped their design game to my eyes. I hope they've updated their long term quality and rust resistance, both of which were issues on GM cars I've owned.

This Buick Regal TourX wagon is going to sell a few I would expect.

Not quite sure I like the black wheel surrounds in the pictured example though. Looks like body cladding trying to look like that lifted Audi wagon from a few years ago before they introduced a real SUV.

This would not be appropriate next to a Buick :)

I don't yet own the Buick. My 2006 VW GTI soldiers on and needs a friend.

I had two new tires installed this morning on my ancient A6 Avant (2001) and the mechanic keeps asking when I am going to sell it to him. There's this little thing called college tuition getting in the way, but some day. You're right Saab...that Buick wheel trim looks like it's from an Audi All Road or Volvo XC. Either way, long live the station wagon!

KonaSS beat you to it: https://www.velocipedesalon.com/foru...tml#post851869

I'm looking forward to seeing them on the road.

Got to drive this Gallardo last weekend. Silly fun.

I had an '85 Buick Century wagon in college. Had great fun driving the piss out of it. I'd be glad to see new Buick wagons on the road.

Buick sucks.

How about that GT3 touring :)
