^ was that material called 'Morrodyke' or something like that?

Double stop intersection.

I've seen pics of this car around...the side window treatment looks very awkward..looks like they used an A-body wagon roof and rear hatch. This '72 deVille based wagon that used B-body wagon parts look better, IMO. This one was owned by Elvis. This '74 would look good w/ Escalade badges.. This Fleetwood wagon appears to have used an A-body rear roof, which looks too small and out of place, IMO..

No doubt...same with a GM EV, VW EV, M-B EV...companies that have built cars for decades are more likely to build a quality product than a small company that cuts corners and tries to reinvent normal production methods...

I recently saw a late model Civic 2dr towing a small trailer w/ a Polaris side by side ATV thingy on it.

Not sure what the deal w/ 'truck' plates in Ohio is...I've seen ordinary pickups with and without them, seen them on what are definitely commercial-use trucks and vans (i.e. HVAC service vans)... Maybe the plate on the Civic expired and Bob took the plate off his truck and put on it. A buddy of mine in Colorado did that 20 years ago---let his Suburban plates expire and put the rear plate from his Porsche 911 SC on it. I remember riding from the airport w/ him when we returned to Denver from San Francisco on a consulting gig and the parking attendant at the airport mentioned the front and back plates didn't match...

Whilst going through the drivethru at Walgreens this afternoon, was behind a late model Civic with an Ohio ‘Truck’ license plate. Odd.

It's too bad the current VW California camper isn't sold in the US...neat vehicle.

My buddy in AZ w/ the FJ 60 and FJ 40 was looking at something like that, he and his wife go camping in the FJ 60...

If I ever spend time on my family farm again, I'd love to have an old truck there...a '73 Ford F100 w/ 6 would be neat.

Love the exhaust note on this modified Caprice PPV, at around 9:35 min mark and again around 11:08 and onward..

I think there is a lot to like about the GM Colonnade A-bodies, esp. the '73 coupes w/ the integrated rear bumpers...even with the huge front bumpers on most...

Another early 70s muscle car I love is the '72 Gran Torino Sport..love the huge fastback roofline and the way the top of the door kicks up...'73 had the same body, but got a huge front bumper and smaller grille.'

Maybe my favorite of the muscle car era Plymouths--the '71 Road Runner and GTX. Love the rounded fuselage styling and loop front bumper.

For a vintage Buick convertible, this would probably be my ideal..

The Port Washington house is over 5700 sq ft, 9 bedrooms..sold for $189k in 2017. Built in 1868. Big old houses like that seem to me like they would be a maintenance nightmare...(not to mention all the steep stairs).

That reminds me of a house outside Port Washington, Ohio that I've gone past for decades.. only a couple miles from my family farm. Also reminds me of houses in Milan, Ohio--visited there a couple years ago, neat little town.

In reference to the T-car's '70s Opel origins?

On one FB car group I’m in, there is a guy w/ 3 diesel Escorts, restoring one. And this is a Millennial, someone that wasn’t even alive when they were new. I don’t get it, but there are so many angles to the old car hobby... Speaking of Scooters, before the getting the Escort as the dinghy for the RV, my Dad had an ‘81 Chevette Scooter for a couple years as the dinghy. It was a real shitbox..I remember shutting the door and the glass falling off the track. Another time the shifter came off in my Dad’s hand, leaving it stuck in 2nd..

For every car, there are enthusiastic fans. I sort of enjoyed my Dad's '84 Ford Escort diesel--5dr, 5spd manual, 52 horsepower. It was the car I did my driving test in as a teenager, my first taste of mobility and freedom...and it did get 55 mpg on the highway, long before the hype about hybrids... it was my first road trip car....Ohio to the Florida Keys and back.. between my Dad and I, we put 140k on it...it never let us down, took many a family road trip with it on the back of the Winnebago... The mid 80s Escort was definitely a more modern, refined product than the ancient Chevette that GM was still peddling then.

Nah, these appliances have 1.2 and 1.3 turbo 3 cyls...
