    A little earlier this week, this olelongrooffan was cruising down Alternate A1A just south of TheStuccoBox I call home and I spotted this second gen GM truck parked in the lot of a local filling station. As it has been a while since I have seen anything Truck Thursday worthy, I kinda figured that whipping…

    So, my fellow Hoons, it has been three years to the day that the Hooniverse Overlords allowed this olelongrooffan a key to the vault that is Hooniverse. And what a ride for this olelongrooffan it has been. 605 posts. Yeah, the 300, 325, 504, 505 and 604 anniversary posts just slipped on by. And 1,095…

    So, as this olelongrooffan mentioned in my Weekend Edition post, on Friday morning my massive communications system lights up indicating the rare moment when some one actually wants to have a voice to voice chat with me. Turns out it was a dude I sold a racecar trailer to last year while I was still…

    Well, this olelongrooffan had originally planned on doing up some posts on my Saturday down at Homestead-Miami Motor Speedway for the PBOC weekend track days with a couple dudes we sold high dollar trailers to last fall and winter. One of those dudes, Casey, called me on Friday from just outside Cape Canaveral while on…

    After reading UDMan’s post about his experience back in January and his subsequent recovery, pretty much anything posted up will be anti-climatic but the Hooniverse Weekend Edition must carry on. So here goes. As has been previously shared with my fellow Hoons, a few weeks ago, this olelongrooffan stumbled upon a British Car Show a…

    So there this olelongrooffan was hanging out at the all Brit show beachside there in Burt Reynold’s hometown and I stumbled across this Rambler American. Wait! What? No my fellow Hoons, this is no mere mid 60’s Rambler American but instead it’s a crossbreed of a Rambler, Renault, and Pininfarina design all mashed together and…

    So this olelongrooffan is now settled down here in tony Palm Beach, Florida and I have had the good fortune to see a whole dang bunch of automobile related stuff since my arrival. I think it was my first or second weekend here that I was able to scout up the 13th Annual All Brit…

    As this olelongrooffan pointed out on Wagon Wednesday, the Barrett-Jackson boys brought out a little bit of everything for their Palm Beach festivities. After longroofs, probably some of my favorite cars are the “D-bodies” offered by Chrysler in the late 1950’s and very early 1960’s. It appears that Chrysler didn’t designate their chassis with a…

    So as this olelongrooffan has pointed out previously, this past weekend was the Barrett-Jackson Palm Beach show just a short drive south of TheStuccoBox I now call home. And in typical Barrett-Jackson fashion, there was something at that event for everyone, including this olelongrooffan.

    As this olelongrooffan was wandering around the Barrett-Jackson Palm Beach show this past few days, I got to thinking about the wide diversity of cars and trucks available at this show. See the Cutlass post in the above image. I am pretty sure this is the first non-hardtop Cutlass I ever remember seeing. Not only…
