Unlike a "flipper", Wayne Carini is a dealer. A dealer is not a flipper. He has overhead, laws that protect the buyer, is regulated by motor-vehicle laws, and pays taxes. A flipper buys a car, often does not transfer the title into his name, and every sale is 'as-is' because it is legally a private owner transaction. Even if sold 'as-is' there are many issues that a dealer cannot walk away from (frame damage, unsafe for the highway issues, emission control problems, etc). ... View more

Several years ago at Mecum Kissimmee, the small Avon trailer gifted to Pamela Anderson (when she was HOT!!) by Hugh Hefner was auctioned. It had a stripper pole in the middle of a pink velvet circular bed and no kitchen, or bathroom. It also had a closet full of very sexy nighties. Man... It sold for a low $20k. Man... (ps. my wife forbade me to bid... lol) ... View more

Funny, may indeed be Casey Putsch but reminds me of the now famed Michael Shank back in his SCCA days. After offering to demonstrate how to dramatically lower my lap times at Nelson Ledges, he promptly blew my S2000's new Ivy engine. aaaargh!!! Later I watched him coach a fellow racer how to wipe out an entire section of armco. ... View more

We're with you RW68; funny thing, for the past thirty years we've had RVs. Nice ones. Expensive. Diesel pusher Country Coaches (Concept & Magna), Beaver Marquis, Damon Intruder, Class Bs (x2) & Cs (x2), but... the one we loved the most... the one we now miss the most... a three slide Host Everest truck camper on a 4wd diesel dually. Go anywhere, get away from the crowd, 63 gal fresh water, easy to maneuver. ...and it kept us away from the microwave while driving. lol   ... View more

I read awhile back that baby carrots are rinsed in a chemical solution that is not healthy. We always wash them well before packing them for the road but also sometimes cut large carrots into snackable chunks. Healthy?? way better than M&Ms & Fritos. lol ... View more

We bought a Shelby Series 1 at Mecum Kissimmee several years ago for $95k. Low miles, one owner, mint condition. More than enough power, killer looks, roomy, comfy, BUT... the car rattled & squeaked so bad it was annoying to drive. Every ripple in the road, every bump, every pavement change caused loud rattles & squeaks that we never could find & fix. Sold it 6 monthes later for a $10k loss. Good riddance. ... View more

Obviously the increase in value for 440 & 426 Hemi '71 GTXs, Mopar's ugly duckling, is not due to improved styling over the earlier cars; or increased performance; so what could it be?? Hmmmm.... maybe... rarity? A small sample size will easily sway survey conclusions. ... View more

dough; I'm with you - that '69 Rambler SC/Rambler scoop was OVER-THE-TOP! ...and just in case you missed the message; AIR with an arrow stencil in front of it. Awesome. ... View more

No manual trans?? Automatic-only is why we're hanging onto our C7 Corvette Z06 conv and keeping us from buying a C8 Corvette. We don't need no stinkin' automatic.... I don't know about the rest of us but we find the Supra's styling is... ahhh.. um... an "acquired" taste (ie. ugly).  ... View more

 We owned a Mercedes AMG C63 awhile back and it developed an engine miss. The local Mercedes dealer checked it and recommended a new $14,000 engine bay wiring harness. The next farther Mercedes dealer said it needed $28,000 worth of repair. A friend told us about this old guy who's pretty sharp with cars. He diagnosed & had it running perfectly in twenty minutes; for $80. The problem? a friend who I let use the car had it detailed and water went into the spark plug wells, shorting out several coil packs. The old guy had a couple of used ones on hand and in no time everything was good again. ... View more

All are fabulous bikes; of those listed we've owned all four of the Hondas, the Indian, & the BMW... but I tend towards the R69S & Indian Chief. They are the perfect blend of classic & modern. ... View more
