Hooniverse Asks- What Are Your Car's Audio Choices?
/
I have a buddy – he goes by the name of DamnElantra about these parts – and his car lacks any audio or video accouterments, preferring to pair his driving adventures with the dulcet tones emanating from his Hyundai’s exhaust, rather than from something bought at Crutchfield. Do you share his aversion to mobile electronic…

Hooniverse Weekend Edition: Group 6 Baja Cars makes us Crazy
/
While cruising around BangShift this past week, I spotted this article by Brian Lohnes about a class of Baja Racing Machines that are largely forgotten today. While BangShift was covering the Extreme Outlaw 250 Desert Race in Reno, one of the most outrageous and infamous of these cars appeared fully restored. Of course, this discovery…

Last Call- Lite Not So Brite Edition
/
Good Year came up with these light-up tires in the early sixties, apparently to aide in up skirt photography. The tires were made from synthetic rubber, and illumination was provided by wheel-mounted bulbs. Changing one of those must have been a hassle!

/
A unique 1972 blue DATSUN 510 4-dr Automatic sedan, one of only four or five known showroom-stock 510s remaining anywhere While I cannot verify the accuracy of the sellers statement, I gotta say that this particular 510 would be considered extraordinarily rare.

Planning a trip to the British Isles, or perhaps Japan soon? Want to freak out the neighbors, but don’t want to spend a lot doing it? Maybe you do a lot of mailbox drop offs and hate the fact that you can never seem to find a curb-side box that isn’t on the right of…

/
Another great Tip from The Doctor (Thanks, Man!), who alerted us to a piece of rolling history. This is an actual Group B Lancia Delta S4 Rally Car, from what was probably the greatest chapter in Racing History, the FIA World Rally Championship in 1985 and 1986.

Hooniverse Asks – Would You be Okay With a Six-Pot Corvette?
/
When it was first introduced, back in 1953, the Corvette was powered by the 235.5 c.i.d. Blue Flame high-compression engine, which was a six cylinder. Two years later, Ford, with the release of their Thunderbird two-seater, gave Chevy 312 reasons which the Corvette needed a V8, and that same year t he Bow Tie Brigade…

Pretty Bird! 1964 Falcon Wagon
/
Commenter Muthalovin tipped us to this stylish ’65 Falcon wagon for sale out in Pflugerville, Texas. It sports a 170c.i. straight six and a Ford-O-Matic slushbox, which should be fine for around-town cruising and car show duty, but you’d best avoid any speed competitions (or uphill onramps).

Stretching the inclusion criteria a bit, we can’t help bring you infamous “You see, Larry…” scene from The Big Lebowski. John Goodman smashing a…

Still Life: Forged in Kenosha, Replaced by a Renault

Sometimes it’s hard to believe the AMC Spirit was canned in favor of the Renault Alliance. So what if it was a freshened-up Gremlin with an optional 5.0L V8? I mean, just LOOK at it – the Spirit in its natural habitat, surrounded by that endangered species known as American heavy industry. They will always…
