I like the Pro Power option. Nice to see a feature both clever and useful. Can't say the same for the folding shifter.

My hat is off to Seamus! 106 years seems about right to break in a leather and horse hair seat.

Nice article. A follow-on that addresses more complex carburetors with things like primary and secondary jets, idle circuits, and the importance of getting all those tiny passages perfectly clean would be appreciated. I'd also be interested in what you consider the most complex carburetors out there.

Back in 1983, my first pickup was a '69 Ford F100. A diligent shade tree mechanic, I did a full tune-up, replacing the the points and condenser. I put the old points and condenser in my spares kit (belts, duct tape, Stop Leak, etc.) stored behind the seat. They saved my bacon a few years later when the replacement point fell apart during a visit to Cape Hatteras. It would not be the last time I've gone back to a "working when removed" part to make a repair.

95-96 Mitsubishi 3000GT VR4 Spyder (and its hardtop siblings). 300hp, twin turbo, AWD, 4-wheel steering, folding hardtop, adjustable suspension, stone cold reliable. 10 years ahead of anything comparable.

So the old drop top boats of the 40's and 50's seen in classic Hollywood films always appealed to me. I'd call most of them gracefully ugly. A Cruiser convertible provides the modern counterpart. It's a pleasantly practical car that comfortably seats four adults and has room for one large or two smaller bodies in the trunk. It look hideous with the top up, but appealing with the top down. The engine bay is a total bitch to work in, especially the turbo model, and fuel economy is atrocious. The wagons are even more practical and I enjoy the retro look. The PT was a good idea let down by poor quality.

Cincinnati's airport has a nice display of Crosleys. If I remember correctly, they are located on the baggage level near the exits. They look ready to squeeze into and drive away.

Great article. I noticed many Prado's while traveling around the world. I've seen the what I now know are badge engineered Prado's in the States. People are funny creatures.
