Re: The Automobile Thread...

That is a great site.  Haven't looked at it in a while, so I'm sure there are plenty of new additions.

Re: The Automobile Thread...

My antie's husband used to have a 1920's car restored to original condition. It was his pride and joy and he would polish it every Sunday. Actually, l think he had to have indictors installed so it was drivable on the roads.

Interesting car Doghouse.

Get it.  A lot of old car guys hate 4 door cars - and a lot of them end up as junk.  I don't discriminate based on number of doors.  I love seeing any old car.  Not to mention, the 4 doors go for a fraction of a 2 door.  Not really good for resale, but great if your trying to get into an old car for a good price.

Four door hardtops are the bomb.  When I was a wee man my dad had a '76 New Yorker.  That thing had more luxurious features in the passenger's seat than most cars have today in their entire interior.  This thing had a button on the floor next to the dimmer switch that changed the radio station for you.

Re: The Automobile Thread...

Ok, so here it is.

What about cars? My most loved car type ever are 1960ies Ferraris, not that I would own one. Sometimes one can see them parked on the street, in Chelsea or Mayfair. Splendid.

And what about 1980ies Mercs? I love the W126 type S Class, particularly in dictator long wheel base.


I LOVE , this foum

I have never been able to get fully on the Jaguar aesthetic for some reason. The closest I have come is the past decade when they converged with Aston on the styling.

Yes Gaydon-aera AMs are very nice. Suprising to see how well they retain their value. In Europe both the DB9 and the V8 Vantage are still above EUR50,000.

Re: The Automobile Thread...

Someone was telling me the other day, that the modern Jags have done away with the ability to fit golf clubs in the boot, as their demographic or the general popularity of golf is in decline?
