trackend, I grew up in a town that in the 1800s made glass. All around are empty sand pits - huge. When I was a kid there was a dune buggy club that would have races there in the summer. You could watch for free! It was great! Can't do that now.

Picked up a new car a little while ago. Needed something a bit better on fuel and cheaper to run but still being fun and rear wheel drive. So I got myself a lightweight Japanese fighter
It is absolutely fantastic - not quick in a straight line but just so much fun in the twisties. Ignore the hairdresser tag and give one a try - you'll be converted!

I found the ultimate car for the family man, luxurious and big enough to carry the family and some groceries...with a V-12 that puts out 550hp! I was very fortunate to see one of these "in the wild" a month or so ago. The driver, who did not own it, he was "just the driver", let me take a look inside too. What a machine! This one was built in 2004 and was the first Maybach on the west coast of the US.
The base model for an '08 will set you back $335,000. Now, if I sell enough pictures to buy one of these, I'll be pretty damn happy with that!

Great looking car, Eric. But I think I'll stick to Jug's suggestion.
Here is the vehicle I miss the most. 1969 Landrover '88 with a 250cyl Chevy engine, aftermarket overdrive and transmission brake among other stuff. Had it for 10 years and regret ever getting rid of it. Didn't go well with my marriage. Now they're both ex's.

Had the absolute pleasure of driving a 1996 [in 1996] Jaguar V12 from
Va. Beach to Richmond, Va. [100 miles] to deliver it to a customer. Then
driving the Toyota they had loaned her back to Va Beach. If that car had
wings it would fly !! One hundred miles per hour is a piece of cake !!
Alas..... I couldn't afford it....

1960 Chrysler 300F
The dawning era of muscle cars took a powerful turn with the 1960 Chrysler 300F. In the formative years of factory performance, automakers reserved their hottest engines for their largest -- and usually most-expensive -- models. Early Chrysler muscle cars were best expressed by the stylish and exclusive "letter-series" machines. The first of these was the 1955 C-300 with its 300-bhp Hemi-head V-8. The 1960 Chrysler 300F continued the tradition of power and panache with its special trim and a sporty interior that boasted four bucket-type leather seats and a full-length console.
Chrysler specified its most-advanced engines for these image leaders. A dual-quad 413-cid wedge replaced the hemi in the '59 letter-series. It made the same 380 bhp as the previous year's standard 392-cid Hemi, but was 100 pounds lighter and simpler to build.
For '60, the 413 gained a radical ram induction system in which each four-barrel carb fed the opposite cylinder bank via 30-inch "outrigger" tubes. The length of the runners was calculated to produce a super-charging effect in the heart of the rpm range.
Ram induction was available on 361-and 383-cid Dodge and Plymouth engines, but only Chryslers and Imperials could get the 413, and only the 300F had ram induction standard. Horsepower was 375; optional "short-ram" tubes, which looked the same but differed internally, yielded 400 bhp at 5200 rpm and 465 lb-ft of torque at 3600.
Pushbutton TorqueFlite automatic was standard, but a French-built four- speed manual was optional for just this season, ending up in only a few 300Fs. Chrysler built 964 300F hardtops and 248 convertibles for '60, a peak year for letter-series performance.
The 400-bhp option wasn't offered after the '62 300H, and thereafter the cars became less and less distinct from regular models until the true letter-series concluded with the '65 300L. These striking automobiles were a bridge from the days of sporty elegance to the age of Detroit muscle.
