Hooniverse Weekend Edition: Getting to know your contributors
/
So I was going through my “other” PC and stumbled upon a bunch of old photos of past relationships. I actually cried a little over loves lost. In my third-of-a-century on the planet I have owned some oddball cars, and LOVED every one of them. Join me, if you will, as I take a journey…

/
Some day in the not-too-distant future, early-to-mid ’70s rear wheel drive Japanese cars may well be worth more than their domestic contemporaries. This may come about as the slightly younger Japanese nostalgia crowd reaches the prime purchasing power years (otherwise known as mid-life) and Baby Boomers move on to retirement homes. The low sales numbers…

Here’s a helpful hint for anyone trying to sell a car. We all know that providing plenty of information to a potential buyer is helpful, but perhaps writing all of that information on a giant poster that gets displayed in the window is not the best idea.

Screw it, We're Moving to Sweden
/
An old pal from a job that’s partially responsible for my screen name tipped me to some top-shelf Swedish vodka insanity. We bring you the Heron Hillclimb, which we can best describe as a mini Pike’s Peak mixed with a typical crop of Cars and Coffee attendees. Seriously, this is madness…

Don't Let this '69 Subaru 360 Slip Through Your Fingers
/
An eBay seller whose screen name seemed familiar has decided to let this Subaru 360 go with no reserve. As of this writing, that means a little over a grand. It runs and drives, but needs attention. The paint’s not bad by our standards, but most would call it crappy. The driver’s side floor has…
