My firebird is a 76, the height of de-powering the v-8s. Even so, it has a nice growl when you put your foot into it. Other then removing all the pollution control shit ,catalytic converters and installing dual exhaust, it’s bone stock. Pontiac 350 2 barrel. Ample power for me.

To be honest he was a rich PARISIEN who came for holydays with the whole family i was living in a small town in the middle of France. Got a crush with one of his daughter I was only 10 years old and to me and others owning such a car" LA BELLE AMERICAINE" was like being a richman...

Here’s a question for you guys .
Does anyone drive one of these ?
I’m asking because I’m trying to figure out what’s the attraction is to this vehicle.
Does anyone know anything about it ?
It’s a Tesla Cybertruck

Toyota pick up plus .55 cal MG.View attachment 167525

Yes- there was actually a war in Africa called the Toyota War. Toyota SR5 pickup trucks evolved into the worldwide Hilux and the Tacoma in the USA. Best in the world IMO- but I'm prejudiced!

Have you ever seen the episode of top gear when they were trying to destroy an old hilux? Incredible. I wish you could get the diesel version here. Although it’s kind of pointless now considering diesel fuel costs more than gas here now.

Isuzu. Namely a D Max V Cross 4x4 auto pickup but I have an optional canopy and hatch on the back.
After years of Land Rovers I bought a Ford Ranger pickup but chopped that in for this one as a birthday/ gaining remission gift to myself.

Quite possibly the best Top Gear episode ever.

I don’t see many, if any, old Hi Lux in use over here any more, our climate and the fact most were used for work has meant they returned to their base elements years ago.
