It's "only" a 633Csi and yes, it was likely a 5 speed judging by how it sounded but it needs new dampers and better springs. I'd still kind of like to have a 635Csi, such a beautiful car and they drove like nothing else at the time.

In the Freddy's parking lot before we left Spokane. Google says it's a Toyota Coaster, Japanese import with RHD apparently.

That is about a 1990 B20? They are about $6k-25k plus shipping and fees from Japan. Some are manuals but all are right side drive and you get the one sliding door on the right. Mostly you get people movers but they have some campers like that. Some are 4wd. There's a gen before and after that one.

Don’t get me started on her ‘02 Disco…

Heh. I had a Series II. Pretty car that got lots of compliments and was generally fun to own until we couldn’t run down all the electrical gremlins that kept at least one component inoperative at all times.

Q: Why didn’t the British invent the personal computer?

A: They couldn’t figure out how to make it leak oil.

That’s my favorite.

Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way....


No one told them when to run, they missed the starting gun

The cars are the same, in a relative way, but they're older
Shorter of breath and one day closer to death

Really, that was well done fellas.

Look at this thing! It's perfect, no notes. 11/10, well done. Was there a Matchbox that looked just like this, or am I imagining it?

Maybe thinking of the A Team van?

Thanks for posting that video. It gave me a moment of peace in my way too busy world.

That A-team van is awesome! I have a fuzzy impression of more candy colored toy vans, but it was a really long time ago so who knows

[gaijin]

My dad customized an '82 Chevy short wheelbase van like that. V8. Black. Black flares and running boards. Aluminum wheels, wide tires. One fold-down bench in the back for a bed, and a refrigerator/stove for camping. It was dope. Everyone called it the A Team van, but it was better. I asked him if I could take it to Prom and he said: "There is no way you're showing up at your girlfriend's house with that Sin Bin."

Its not leaking oil, its marking its territory

I try not to think of it as a leak but more of a self lubricating chassis.

[gaijin]

The good thing about an oil leak is you you never have to change the oil, just keep adding quarts as needed.

[I Skied Bandini Mountain]

There was one for sale here pre-covid, original owner. Complete with 8-track and macrame' curtain. It was super bitchin.

[dan_pdx]

Those are kickass vans! I Skied Bandini: missed opportunity lol. What were they asking for that gem?

[I Skied Bandini Mountain]

Asking $9,000 IIRC. We're out of garage space or we would have grabbed it.

Camaros and vettes can get fukt, an OG shaggin' wagon is my dream midlife crisis car.
