/
The paint isn’t even dry on the 2011 Mustang, in fact you can’t even buy one of the 305-bhp six-engined cars, nor the new 5.0 V8, and yet we’re still thinking about what the next generation should be like.

I was helping out a friend browse for a roomy, safe car on the cheap; meaning I was cruising craigslist for P71s.

Four Carbs, Four Doors, Four on the Floor … Corvair Monza 140 is GO!
/
Sedans are funny creatures. Some sedans make this hoon swoon … a mid-sixties Continental with the right paintwork would make me hop in the back with Morpheus any day. Domestic sedans got tricky once the fuselage styling thing got going (1974 Dodge Monaco, anyone?), but apparently GM’s abacus-wielding stylists didn’t muck up the second generation…

Metacars Invades Craigslist with Parody Civic Ad?
/
The great XKCD once challenged readers to write a youtube comment so dumb people would know it must be fake. It’s nearly impossible. Such is the case with Craigslist ads for super JDM ricemobiles. Mr Howser sent this in, and we’re pretty sure it’s a spoof…but then again, it we’ve seen stranger ads on the…

What is it About an Orange Chevy?
/
Looking at my current choices in classics, you’d have me pegged as a Ford Guy. Untrue, it’s just that the window of opportunity (in the form of a driveway space) for bow-tie ownership has yet to arrive. When it does, a mid-60s Chevelle is at the top of the purchase list. While it’s widely known…
