    “Wish Ford still made trucks like this one. No cam phasers no direct injection no automatic fuel management system. Just a plain nothing fancy naturally aspirated engine. I sure I am not alone with my thoughts but GLWTA.”

    “In the world of VW owners who loved their sporty cars in the 1980s there will always be Golf/GTI owners and Scirocco owners. I was very proudly the latter.
    I am a 3x Scirocco loyalist and owned a 1977, a 1982, and lastly a 1988 16v. To me the Scirocco stood apart from the rest of the VW lineup and the styling was a huge draw to it. I made so many lifelong memories in those cars, most notably my 16v as I had it in college and even met my wife-to-be while I owned it.
    I’m pretty sure I…”

    “These Z71’s were tanks! Had a white 2003 (ironically bought it from original owner in Scarsdale as well!!). It was unfortunately totaled when my wife got into a bad accident with it the day after Xmas 2020. Rolled 3 times, but that roof rack saved her as it remained fairly intact.”

    “I remember filling out a postcard to get a promotional dvd for this car when i was 14. The dvd was about 5 minutes of this car doing straight line accelerations and burnouts. I watched it a ton of times. I thought it was badass then and I still do now.”

    “My old GTX! What a joy to see it again, and looking so darn sharp.
    Thank you for the shout Randy @BaT – I would’ve missed the listing otherwise. Time travel is fun, eh?
    I bought this car in Las Vegas in 2012 after years of hunting for a good one. Even back then, they were quite rare. On the drive home to San Francisco, I took a dirt detour through Titus Canyon in Death Valley, and you can see pics from that in the original auction gallery. One of my favorite car memories of all…”

    “In many respects the Z432 is like the 911 Carrera RS 2.7.
    Very rare, look nearly identical to their garden variety siblings and the high desirability is based all around the engine.
    Having a production car in 1972 with a redline of 7500-rpm was insane and the technology that went into that cylinder head was something the Europeans were not even doing until the next decade.
    To some degree Nissan did themselves in, as the L-series grew to a 2.8L, a modified L28 could easily outgun a 432.…”

    “Awesome to see another very early production boss! Curious as to when it initially was sold. I own 2013 Boss 302 #0003 in grabber blue. I purchased it in March 2012 from Al Packer Whit Marsh Ford in MD. They had no idea what the production number was and of course I never mentioned it until after I purchased it, then I received a call a few weeks later asking if I’d sell it back or trade it back for another boss plus cash. I declined. I do have more miles on mine, around 9k. Drove it from NJ to…”

    “Brings back wonderful memories !!
    One of my best friends ordered a ‘63 Galaxie 500 XL Oxford Blue convertible with the 406/405 Tri-Power engine …By the time it arrived it had the new upgraded 427/425 Dual Quad engine..I can vividly remember the first time opening the hood and seeing those chrome valve covers marked 427-T ….I believe the “T” was for transistor ignition.
    The ‘63 Galaxie has always been my favorite Ford, especially the
    “R” code Fastback version.”

    “A lot of the old GN racers, like me, will remember this car. Glad to see it’s still got all the original livery on it, as it’s a history making ride! Will be watching this one!”

    “Hurley Haywood was my instructor at the Porsche Driving School in Alabama, actually both times I went — was really a great instructor — five time winner of 24hrs of Daytona — will never forget my laps riding with Hurley driving around that track at 9/10ths.
    

In the downhill corkscrew to get the 996 back end to to come around he caused a bunny hop by repeatedly stabbing at the brake pedal to unsettle the car, I had never seen that technique before or since, counter to what they…”
