    For a number of years after it got built in Flat Rock, this 1998 Mazda 626 undoubtedly lived a sedate life. Forest green paint, beige cloth interior, the works. Then, somewhere in the not-too-distant past, it seems to have been acquired by someone possessed by the Devil’s tasteless idiot brother, and this is the end…

  • Video: Ford Raptor Jumps Like a Velociraptor

    comments

    Some dudes hooning a black Ford Raptor on some jumping grounds misjudge the velocity necessary to complete a jump. In a classic display of “Hey y’all, watch this!” the Raptor is launched high into the air, and the inevitable landing sounds painful. There’s some very entertaining HD video, and some NSFW language to top it…

  • 1965 Plymouth Barracuda's Been Left Out to Dry

    It doesn’t get more fastback than the first generation Plymouth Barracuda. With an acre (actually 14.4 sqft) of fixed curved glass, you could have a decent sized greenhouse going back there…which might be tempting, given the condition of today’s example. However, I contend that under the (substantial) layers of surface grime, there’s a lot of…

    It’s not often that fate smiles down on us with, say, an extra scoop of gravy in our KFC mashed potatoes, or a crosswalk free of Hoverounds while you’re barreling down a crowded street. Today is one of those fortuitous occasions, brimming full of hope and confidence!

  • eBay Insanity: Want A Wedgie?

    comments

    In the 1983 film Blue Thunder, Roy Scheider’s character famously assessed his sanity by comparing his intuited perception of time against a stopwatch. Here we have an eBay auction that is an equally sure test of your sanity: The supposed numero uno of British Leyland’s 1978 fleet of North American “prototype” (or somewhat more accurately,…

    Continuing on with the Hooniverse Van-Tastic Weekend, here is a van you don’t find anywhere anymore. This is a GMC Handivan, which shares almost all of the sheet metal, chassis, engines, and practically everything else with the Chevrolet G-Series van of the same vintage.

    In the comment section of the post I did last week, Hooniverse Fastback Friday: The Government(sorry for the poor taste there) General Motors Edition, tonyola posted the above image of a “fastback anti 442”. I found it amusing as I had seen one similar while out at the track on Saturday and thought I would…

    comments

    Last week for British Week Truck Thursday this olelongrooffan posted about a Jagamino Jagchero (by popular opinion) and a fellow Hoon said in the comment section: “I’m afraid to know what other monstrosities are in your hard drive.” Well, my hard drive contains around 5,000 images of all things automotive so this may just become…
