    Missed being a Boomer by one year. (Too old)
  2. Thoughts on this rear spoiler

    Way back when Roots, a British car company took the rather docile Sunbeam sports car and shoehorned a Ford 260 ci engine into it and created a poor man’s Cobra Called the Sumbeam Tiger.

  7. New owner in Idaho (not Iowa)

    A tip: Never toss an unopened can of c ration peanut butter into a campfire. No way you can get it off bare skin before it leaves a mark. I really didn’t mind Cs although pound cake would suck all the moisture out of you body on a hot day in the desert.
  8. Do you get comments on the street about your Maverick?

    Back in 1954 or early 1955 my dad bought the fourth VW sold in southwest Idaho. Whenever we stopped it drew a crowd, most wanting to see the engine in the rear. Out on the open road Beetle owners always honked and waved when they met and sometimes stopped to compare notes.

    You don’t live where we live

  18. Comparing old to the new: 1963 Ranchero Deluxe Cab vs. 2024 Maverick

  19. Does Rotary Shifter suck?

    I’ve always had trouble adjusting to new technology. Way back when, a friend and his wife showed up with a brand new Pontiac GTO. My wife and I jumped in and the owner let me take the wheel. We found a deserted stretch of highway and he encouraged me to see what the GTO could do. The GTO had a...
