I want this car...
(Ad has audio track...)
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Mercu...item3f0e5b510b God, I love large RWD V8's. It would be my lotto dream car, but a good scratch off should cover it. (Hey, I figured GT needed a break from all the politics...) |

Holy crap. Its an aircraft carrier with wheels.
its even got a binnacle on the danhboard!   With the 700HP supercharged Super Snake engine please.  I'd prolly end up installing a guarded switch cluster for battery, ignition, starter, etc. add a little more profile to the rear wheels, rout the ducting so it all works, and run a scanner and radar constantly.

Some of those old land yachts are cool. I had a 1980 Lincoln Continental Signature Series. 351 Cleveland. Can not beat the ride feel of coil and A-arm suspension IMO.
This was my beast. Same color as well.  I have had an assortment of RWD Detroit V8 in my time.

This was my high scool cruiser, except mine was a 2-door.
1972 Mercury Maruis Brougham 427 ci, power everything.  Graduation night, I pulled the drain plugs in the trunk, lined it with plastic, put 2 pony kegs on ice and had 2 cases of hard stuff next to the spare tire on the upper ledge. A travelling party. Yes, I stayed sober until the last stop. My car during my Navy years, until I got married. 1987 Ford Thunderbird. Her name was Victoria.

Some lovely models there....but how many of them didn't 'screech' whilst taking a corner at more than say 25mph?
