You ever feel some people just need a hard slap against the back of their head to reset, so they can go on and live the rest of their days making smart decisions for a change?
a few people think this is the right thing to do with muscle cars. Try to teach them not to, please
light blue top with a moon roof? Uggg. I can't see what the mural is about... could be smurfs, I don't know. It's a 68 Road Runner though
this GTX might be considered worse, that's carpet or cloth under the hood, t tops, and a roll bar.

The crazy car business stories.. are excellent, here's just one from Michael Satterfield of Gentlemen Racer.com
Your tax dollars at work:
I was working as the Internet Sales Manager for the dealer group that included Ford, Lincoln, Mercury, and Kia when a phone call came in from a local state assemblywoman’s office. The staffer was frantic and looking for a Lincoln Towncar Signature L. These had been discontinued from regular production at the time but had been available for special fleet orders, but production was done so they were few and far between. The staffer told me that he needed two Black on Black Towncars. One for the local office and one for the Sacramento office. I put him on hold and did a search find that there were none within 500 miles and with Southern California being the hub of the automotive industry and the largest market if we did not have it, no one did.
So I google the assemblywoman’s name and find countless bills, speeches, and articles on her green legislation, hybrid car bills, and other general tree huggery. I pick the phone back up and tell the staffer “good news I have the cars you are looking for in stock. Black on Black Ford Escape Hybrids”…. Complete silence on the other end. “Well seeing as the assemblywoman is so concerned about the environment that she keeps passing laws regulating the cars we should drive and the types of cars we should have in California, I thought she would like a car that gets double the gas mileage of a Towncar, and costs about $15,000 less” the staffer flies off the handle. “She cannot be seen in something like that she needs a prestigious car for entertaining dignitaries… if you are not willing to help us we will go to someone that will” At that point I was just laughing a the idea of a state assembly member “entertaining dignitaries”. They wanted to spend almost $100,000 for two Towncars so some hack can be driven around in by a staffer like she was the president….they did find them from a dealer in Nevada that orders them for the casinos…your tax dollars at work.
the others are just as good, and can be read at http://www.thegentlemanracer.com/2014/01/crazy-car-business-stories.html
Motor Trend Classic is killed off again. Bastards.
once again they let us subscribers know only 6 months late, and think we'll be satisfied getting Motor Trend magazine. Why can't they kill Motor Trend and keep making a magazine I actually respect?
It might be relevant to point out that the editor of Motor Trend Classic has only done stories of new expensive cars since Feb 2013 http://www.motortrend.com/staff/angus_mackenzie/
they still have it up on their website http://www.motortrend.com/classic_cars/ and advertise selling you a subscription
but the postcard I got in the mail today says it's dead, and my subscription is going to be filled by the regular (boring) Motor Trend

If you know a young gear head... have them watch this, and you might save their car, and their garage, and their life. This DUMB SOB was THIS close to burning himself to death
As soon as you turn on this video, pause it, and see how many stupid dumb ass things are right there easy to spot.
I see the battery on it's side, on the firewall, ready to fall into the engine bay and short out
Plastic gas can (just a wee bit meltable) on the other side of the car, on the firewall
Then, the very very samll garage means one way in and out, no fire extinguisher... and this guy just gets smacked up side the damn head by Murphy's law. You just know it's going to happen.

Bureaucrats should be flogged: Reason #71
The United Kingdom's Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) has banned this MINI billboard along the country's A532 road. Accordng to MarketingWeek the ASA stated it banned the advertisement because: . . . the large number of lines in different colours would give those who saw the ad the impression of a fast-moving vehicle - an impression exaggerated by the wide format of the poster.
The regulator also said the use of the word “fun” in conjunction with the imagery of a vehicle moving at “excessive speed” in a built-up environment was likely to encourage dangerous driving and ruled the ad was “irresponsible”

Don't antagonize people on the road, they may be more dangerous than you are. Especially if they are in a car, and you are on a bike
at the two minute mark he reaches into the car, well... that isn't going to make friends. And he breaks the guys side mirror. That's going to piss off the car owner... so it's not surprising what follows
I know some bikers, and some car owners. Some people are not going to back down, some won't put up with shit, and some won't start any - but will finish it. So, it's not going to end well in most cases, even if cops don't get involved.

Mopars were hated and slandered pretty bad by the March 1971 issue of Hot Cars and High Performance Stockers, their stupidity is likely why they don't exist anymore
Holy shit. They called the 'Bird a turd. Ignorant? Instant awesome and collectible. Nice spelling of Gotham you assholes
the only on call hoodscoop I can think of on any car ever made. Their sarcasm aside, it was cool, tuff, and boss
Contrarily, I think the 71 Barracuda was very good looking due to the grill and gills
Looks like a Duster, and yeah, it's paint wasn't high quality, because the Duster was about the cheapest car you could by from Plymouth
Might be a jargon term, but "Limp"? Dimple maybe
thanks to J for sending me this from the March 1971 Hot Cars and High Performance Stockers
this is why women model in advertising... but after getting flack from idiots, this Ducati shop manager showed the how stupid critics are, by giving them what they want... equal opportunity to look at men modeling the same Ducati, in the same pose
Everybody happy now? The shop owner is brilliant, give them what they want, prove they were idiots to bitch about the human condition without offering a better solution, and demonstrate the equal rights isn't just a phrase. I feel sorry for all the beautiful women put out of work by cranky activists... beautiful women can only suffer by the activism of others who condemn the natural method of sexing up advertising. Above, you see the opposite, and I think it's incontrovertible... women in advertising sells, men in advertising is ridiculous, but prove a point

And, best part, all the free advertising of this controversy will only help out the shop that had to put up with the griping. So HA!

Good news, the FAA has finally pulled their head out of their ass, and will allow dvd players, tablets, e-readers during all phases of flight
The FAA announced Thursday that the agency will be relaxing half-a-century old guidelines on passenger electronic device use during takeoff and landing, allowing the use of tablets, e-readers, dvd players and video game consoles during these critical phases of flight. Phone calls and texting remain banned.

Range Rover in Manhatten vs 30+ bikers = melee, and only one side of the story so far
helmet smashing the drivers window, just prior to him getting pulled out, slashed, both eyes punched on, and he ended up lucky he wasn't killed

in a nutshell, A guy named Cruz slowed down to block the Range Rover so the bikers could take over the highway in all lanes, without the Range Rover in the pack... I guess the bikers had a pace, and it wasn't faster than the Range Rover's... just fast enough to create the problem, instead of getting way out in front and staying there.
So the biker slows down and the Range Rover bumps the back tire of Cruz's bike, probably knocking it over and injuring Cruz a bit. This doesn't show up well on the helmet cam video. The guy with the GoPro camcorder had his head swiveling because he was still moving.
The bikers lose their minds because the Range Rover did a slow speed bump and hit Cruz's bike, and proceed to slash the tires on the Range Rover, and take off helmets and beat the shit out of the SUV
So, the Range Rover driver, Lien is his last name, who realizes he's pissed off 30 some angry bikers who have knives, and are using them to permanently disable his SUV which he has his wife and kid in for a afternoon drive... just drives over everything infront of him, bikes and bikers alike, and try to get away

http://usnews.nbcnews.com/_news/2013/10/04/20820832-undercover-cop-was-on-scene-when-bikers-beat-range-rover-driver-officials?lite
An undercover New York police officer was on the scene when a pack of angry motorcycle riders chased down and beat a Range Rover driver in front of his wife and toddler, two law enforcement officials said Friday. The unidentified cop came forward four days after the harrowing incident — which was captured on camera and became a viral video that has gotten millions of hits — and Internal Affairs is investigating. This information was first reported by the New York Post. There is no evidence the officer took part in the assault on driver Alexian Lien, but he also did not assist the victim or call 911, one source said. Another biker, Robert Sims, surrendered to police Friday. He is believed to have yanked the vehicle's door and also participated in the assault.
and from the wife in the Range Rover: Ng called 911 four times amid the dramatic standoff, first at 1:52 p.m., police sources told NBC News. She told the operator: “We’re surrounded by a group of bikers.” from a NBC article http://usnews.nbcnews.com/_news/2013/10/03/20800978-family-involved-in-suv-biker-clash-was-in-fear-for-our-lives?lite
in a related story... the guy (last name Mieses) who was run over by the Range Rover? Already a client of Gloria Allred, publicity ***** who will represent anyone in the headlines. ***** means what you think it does I'm not looking to get sued. http://abcnews.go.com/US/injured-bikers-wife-gloria-allred-innocent-victim/story?id=20467895
Meises hasn't had a drivers license since his recent arrest, no motorcycle endorsement on a drivers license ever
and the local state senator? Jumped all over this publicity opportunity to try to outlaw motorcycles riding in packs. What a joke
Jalopnik has a GIF of what morons the bikers were before tangling with the Range Rover http://oppositelock.jalopnik.com/the-footage-that-the-nyc-bikers-didnt-want-you-to-see-1435594427/1436603736/@orlove
Normally I only give motorcycle riders good publicity... but it's like something I heard recently:
the gentlemen were denounced by a bystander who said "there were no gentlemen here"
Latest update 7 Oct, 1445ish http://news.msn.com/crime-justice/lawyer-nypd-officer-didnt-see-driver-attacked
the undercover cop is seen on new video punching the SUV, shattering its rear window, a law enforcement official confirms to NBC 4 New York.
The officer, who was not on duty, came forward last Wednesday, several days after the Sept. 29 chase that ended in a fight, to say he was present, according to a source, and did not call 911 when the assault was taking place.
The video that just recently surfaced shows the undercover smashing the window, but not participating in the assault. He rides off when the driver is pulled from the SUV, according to a person familiar with the investigation. The video has not been made public.
Sources say the undercover was not truthful with investigators about his role. A law enforcement official said Tuesday that investigators are considering criminal charges against him.
