    [Our beloved Ambersand submitted this some time ago, and due to my own incompetence I somehow missed it, or forgot about it, or lost it. We tried to get it all polished up and ready to run yesterday, but we weren’t quick enough. As such, we’re running it today. Got an article you think we’d…

    [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s4Ic3RqPIJo[/youtube] Ah, the 1970s. An era of unrepressed malaise, in which the atmosphere of boundless optimism was, itself, optimistic at best. This video, featuring completely irrelevant close-up shots of mammaries in small bikinis, seems to attempt to bring out the patriotism of Australians in spite of the general mediocrity of automobilia available to them, either…

    I captured this unassuming little Pacer in a Tim Horton’s drive-through lineup yesterday, and the owner was awesome enough to stay still long enough for me to get photos of both sides, allowing you to evaluate the cosmetic merits, or lack thereof, of the unequal-sized doors.

    Nowadays, we have access to just about any form of technology our little heart desires. Okay, maybe not a transporter beam from Star Trek, or the Death Star I so greatly desire to aid in my commute to work, but almost anything else we could want.

    Proving, once again, that despite all odds, Saskatchewanians can do things right from time to time, this fantastic parade float was captured some time ago by a friend of CaffeineFuelled. Frankly, we think it’s perfect, and believe that there should be a whole lot more parade floats just like it. What say you, Hoons? Given…

    We spotted this lovely Galaxie 500 for sale recently, and it’s a perfect case of an unmotivated seller. From the description, to the price, to the simple fact that reality doesn’t quite seem to tie in with the seller’s description, one can safely assume you’re not going to get a great deal on this car.

        While browsing through Autotrader, I stumbled across this little beauty sitting on a dealership lot in Calgary. I’m tempted to head down there and ask them if they’d be willing to let me take it for a test drive.
