“I have a similar setup with a Rover 4.0. The all aluminum Rover is 35lbs lighter than the original 4 banger. I’m getting 26 mpg in mine.”

A few of the comments that stood out to us yesterday:

“@JMKClassic BRAVO! Thanks for sharing and reminding me how awesome these cars really are. My first car I took delivery Dec 10th 2004 after watching the Ford commercial “THE ONE” over and over and had to have it. My first drive was to take a friend, who said I couldn’t scare her, a drive through Memorial Park that leads to the highway. As I got on the entrance ramp to the 610 Loop, I took it to 60 in 1st gear and when I hit second, at 60, the tires LIT UP!! I was amazed and hit 3rd at about 110.…”

MACUSA commented on 990-Mile 2005 Ford GT

“I started with Cadillac in 1957 and after working on and around the 57,58 and 59 models I thought, at the time, this was the most beautiful Cadillac we had EVER built. I still fell that way today. Lucky me that I had the opportunity work on and around them. Beautiful fit and finish and they ran so well. I helped out a few times in the Cadillac Executive Garage where these cars were prepared and stored for the factory retail deliveries. The new owners were treated royally including a personal…”

A few of the comments that stood out to us yesterday:

“Dad still has a Morris van and one of the pickups that he started accumulating in the 1970’s, when my siblings and I learned to appreciate the Morris line of vehicles for what they were/are. Forgive me for recycling one of my comments from 2014, which I hope is appropriate and appreciated again:
One of the most ubiquitous vehicles of my childhood, after Austin Healeys and Lotus Elites.
Prospective Buyers should be aware of the following, especially if they have teen-aged children:
As…”

“Not sure aircraft on here will be common but will say the comments on this are both knowledgeable and accurate regarding it and the mission, as well as their history in general. Wasnt sure what the comments would be but the knowledgeable have come out of the woodwork. A lot of Vets out there that you would never know by looking. Sometimes it takes a conversation like this for them to step forward. GLWA”

A few of the comments that stood out to us yesterday:

“Wow! Owner of touring #9 here. Hope to see a second B8 4.6 touring come to the US! If the new owner is US based, please find me. Happy to connect and provide steer on how to maintain this thing in the US. I just refreshed the hydraulic system on my car after getting it back from the BMWCCA Foundation museum.
The unique thing about the Alpina B8 touring is it’s the only e36 touring chassis that got the m3 rear subframe reinforcements welded in as well.”

doctor_tran commented on No Reserve: 1996 Alpina B8 4.6 Touring 6-Speed

“This is SW, this car belonged to me for quite a while. I purchased it as a 4 speed A/C car. It was extremely nice, straight with a beautiful undercarriage, which was the main reason I bought it. The Paint was nice but I am very picky so we disassembled it and had it blocked and resprayed. It drove amazingly well. After a few years I sold it to a friend so I wouldn’t take it apart and make it a restomod like all my others. He had a 5speed installed, drove it some but since he owns over 75 other…”

A few of the comments that stood out to us yesterday:

“In 1967, my dad informed me that he had purchased, with my savings, 1960 Falcon with 60K miles for $325.00.
While it would not have been my choice, I was excited to enter the world of independence from walking, bicycling and public transportation.
The 144 ci engine didn’t last long with my heavy foot and the constant diet of re-refined oil I fed it from our local Site gas station.
I found a 260 at the junk yard and that was a great improvement.
The original radiator did not like the 260, so…”

A few of the comments that stood out to us yesterday:

“OH me gad! This was my bike! @ Pocono Raceway, 1977, Phil Schilling from Cycle Magazine, supporting Cook Nielsen on Big Blue, connected me to Dale Boller the then owner. Next thing ya know the bike is in my garage , brand spanking new in its original crate. The stories i could tell…”

LBBURROW commented on 1974 Ducati 750 Super Sport “Green Frame”

“Some cars whisper.
Some cars glide.
And some cars look like they already know where the bodies are buried.
The 1953 Buick Roadmaster falls squarely into the last category.
Long hood, wide grin of chrome teeth, and those four portholes punched into the front fenders like warning shots across the bow. Buick called the engine underneath a Fireball 8, which sounded less like transportation and more like something the Army might test out in the desert north of town. Around Fort Stockton,…”
