[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=128OpWDxw64[/youtube] Pardon us while we feel all full of ourselves for a second, but Ian Gray, designer and builder of yesterday’s glorious F1-67 Race Car Replica, stopped by yesterday to give us a little more information in the comments. In case anyone missed it — and I would have, if he hadn’t emailed me to…

When I was a kid, one of my biggest joys was when the family would make a trek to the store where I could buy a new car model. I preferred the Revell models, but Monogram had some good ones too. While I pine for those days sitting at the dining room table- spread with…

I know that picture shows a tissue box nestled comfortably in that R/C platform, but I wouldn’t be a true hoon unless the second I saw it my twisted brain came up with nearly endless permutations of what sort of insanity may ensue if you simply put something else in there. Of course, the sixer…

Hooniverse Asks- What Wrenching Do You Do at Home?
/
/
comments
Cars and trucks keep getting more and more complicated, but one maintenance job that has remained fairly easy and within the scope of the amateur wrencher is the oil change. As long as you have a level spot, a pan and a jack stand, you can change out the Texas tea with little drama. But…

Don't Be Afraid to Ask Questions: Part 2 – The Camshaft

A traditional gasoline engine needs a mixture of air and fuel to create combustion inside the individual cylinder chambers (be they numbered 4, 6, 8, or 3 if you drive a DamnElantra®). If you simply let in a bunch of air and an Inland Empire Meth Lab amount of fuel, your car would first go…

While the Best of France and Italy car show managed to have a representation of most every make and model of car those two countries officially sent to the U.S., as well as many that made it over here surreptitiously, one car that wasn’t present on the grass was the Peugeot 504. Well, we found one,…

Hooniverse Asks, Bonus Edition: What Would A Hooniverse Coat of Arms Look Like?

Perhaps it’s because I’m not feeling too hot, but my mind is wandering something fierce today. But nevertheless, I want to poll the populace; if Hooniverse had a coat of arms, what would it look like?

F1-67 Gives Us Inferiority Complex

comments
Let’s face it, we love cars of all description. We’re pretty much willing to try anything, and there aren’t a whole lot of vehicles that we wouldn’t be chomping at the bit to grab by the scruff of the neck and take for the ride of our lives.

(Real Hoon of genius) We salute you, Mr. Overpass-hanging Beertruck Driver. Because when other truck drivers are clogging the highways with spilled loads of rasberry jam (it’s so sticky) and watermelons (you’d think seedless wouldn’t be so messy), you bring it. If people have to be stuck in traffic (feels like it’s been hours), you…
