Well, I was an eye witness to what may have been an engine change from a Hertz **bleep** on track. ... View more

Artistic streamlining - Art Deco styling - of both the body and the trim. ... View more

It has to be the Canguro - it is just SO sexy! Based on the Alfa TZ2, it was going to be scrapped until it was thankfully saved by an American who was teaching school in Germany. ... View more

If it were given to me, I'd sent the batteries to the hazardous waste dump and the car to the crusher. EVs are a fool's errand. ... View more

Geez, only three?  Well, here's what I'd put in my very special 3-car garage:   1966 Shelby GT 350, candy apple red with no body stripe, preferably the one I bought new in November 1966 then sold a couple years later to buy a Lotus.   1966 Alfa Romeo Giulia TI Super - the homologation special of the Giulia Super sedan.  I'd even sell the Super I have now to get room for a TI Super.    1969 Lotus Elan +2 - sexiest Lotus ever! ...

Some very good choices, but I'd add the Ford SVT Focus in it's 2-door, hatchback form.  It was an incredible performer for not being turbocharged - light and quick.  Wish I still had my 2002. ... View more

East TN is the place to be.  Start out from Chattanooga, north on US-11, south on US-129, and find Tail of the Dragon.  After 318 curves in 11 miles, go down the other side into NC and have lunch at the Tapoco Lodge.  Take the Cherohala Skyway home.  You'll be tired and smiling after that day trip. ...
