Dear lord, could you pack any more style, finesse, panache, into a single package? Who wants to cruise for a run-in with law enforcement near an elementary school chicks?

Boss Cat I: 1,000HP of Turbonique Fun in the Snow!
/
/
comments
By now you all should be familiar with the paste-eating, babbling, straightjacket-worthy insanity of that legendary purveyor of turbines and turbine accessories, Turbonique. Lest you think that the egregiously dangerous rocket drag axles were limited to dry conditions, may we present for your eye-rubbing, stupefied enjoyment, the Boss Cat I, a Turbonique-equipped 1,000 HP rocket…

Rail inspection? Pffhh … Try Minefield Inspection!

comments
Forget about crawling around boring railroad tracks … need a vehicle that eats IEDs for breakfast and plays in minefields for fun? Look no further than the Trojan, a Mad Max-esque tractor built from a bucket of main battle tank parts and a healthy dose of aggression.

V.I.S.I.T. – Spawn of Scottish Militant Left-wing Shipbuilders Edition

I’ve written about the troubled but awesome Imp before, but I’ve never seen one off the track (where they’re less troubled and more awesome, generally speaking). And then this little bastard comes into view, parked in my new mecca for automotive randomness, Ballard.

Don't Tell Your Wife: Transgasket Diff Replacement Edition

comments
Here’s the sitrep – you blew $1200 on some combination of unhusbandly and morally problematic things (“this 8-ball will last us all weekend!”), and as you sober up the harsh reality stabs you in the eye like that beam of light from your seedy motel’s venetian blind – your wife is going to KILL you.…

V.I.S.I.T. – Narrow-Tracked Rootes Edition

comments
Perhaps unsurprisingly, this Commer FC van caused a nearly neck-breaking doubletake driving through Seattle. How many of these could possibly live outside the UK? And since the first sighting weeks ago, it has been taunting me, never around when I had my camera handy. That is, until yesterday …

Showdown: Land of the Rising Maple Leaf Edition

comments
It’s been a while since our last Showdown, where the bruiser Lincoln Capri crushed a Ginetta G4 under its ‘Merican heel. This week, we’re not crossing an ocean, just the 49th Parallel. Hearing the (old) news (for the first time via Autoblog) that those dirty Quebecois are looking to restrict importation of RHD imports reminded…

¡Ay Dios Mio! Could An E-Type Crush Mexico Under Its Cruel Yoke?
/
/
comments
Europeans have long fantasized about taking over the former Spanish colonial domains, and while I’m pretty sure the Brits never invaded Mexico, this ‘ere Jag seems ready to rewrite history by attempting to pull an Emperor Max and take over the country for a short period of time. And by that, of course, we mean…

Showdown: Vannin'

If there’s one trend that Hoons the world over mourn, it’s the penchant for extraordinarily hairy men to gut a shorty van and fill it full of shag carpet, teardrop windows, and sci-fi murals. Unlike that terrible swing dancing trend that nauseated the country for several years in the ‘90s, we think that shag vans…
