You do an article on 70s choppers and not one mention of the shovelhead? the last Panhead was in 1965! People made a lot of noise about the AMF bikes of the 70s, but the shovelhead was a big improvement on the Pan. I had a 73 Superglide back in the day and just last year I sold my 74 shovel. A great bike. Never had any problems with either and you can't beat the sound. Especially compared to the newer bikes which are mostly ridden by old farts with too much time and money on their hands. BTW, I sold the Harley and bought a Triumph. The car, that is. At my age it's easier to sit in. though difficult to get in. ... View more

As a teenager, my parents bought a 64 F-85 with the 330 ci motor. I,'m pretty sure the 442 didn't debut until the 65 model year. ... View more

Having worked at the local Honda dealership in high school when it came out, the Honda CB450 was a step ahead at the time. It was, I believe the first bike with DOHC and also used a unique torsion bar rocker system. It wasn't the fastest bike nor the pertiest, but it was very unique. this was the simmer of 67. Also, why no 2-strokes? I had a suzuki X-6 that was a rocketship.  ... View more

Well, there are three I can think of off the top of my head. Obviously, McQueen's "Bullitt" Mustang. Cheech and Chongs Low Rider and while I forget the movie, Paul Newman drove around in a bathtub Porsche. ... View more

I don'tthink there is anything unusual about obsessing over details. Doors that don't close "just right" are one of the details that will kill a purchase deal faster than most things to me. I'm in the market for an older Triumph TR-6 and that door close, while possibly near impossible to fix will be an important indicator of how well the car has held up over the last 45-50 years. Will I have to invest an inordinate amount of time to get it right? Possibly. But a door that klunks or is not aligned properly will drive me crazy. It is the details, large and small that make chasing, finding and restoring car satisgying. ... View more

Not to be picky, but Humphry Bogart would say coopay about various cars. Such as in The Big Sleep or The Maltese Falcon. This would indicate that coopay was part of the vernacular in the 30s and 40s and not some weenie foreign expression. Though, it was a French word. ... View more

I'm disapointed you didn't have the Iso Griffo on your list. Back in the 60s I used to go to a local Chrysler dealer that sold them. And even though a net search reveals that they were powered by big block Chevy and Ford Clevelands, I'm sure the ones I saw had Mopar engines. They were exquisitly stylish thanks to those damned Italians. And fast. ... View more
