The Retro-Future Never Looked So Good: US Steel's A Portfolio of Probabilities

comments
A friend of mine once had some really stupid roomates. Not so much stupid, as ignorant. You see, he was showing them old Three Stooges videos and they responded with “Who are these idiots? Don’t they know this is like the most played out form of comedy, like, ever?!”. Yeah, except Curly/Shemp, Moe and Larry…

Hooniverse Asks- Expensive Cheap Car, or Cheap Expensive Car?
/
/
comments
These days you can buy pretty much the same car from an auto maker’s different divisions. Whether it be Ford Fusion vs. Lincoln MkZ, Toyota Camry vs. Lexus ES350, or even BMW 328i vs. BMW 528i, you have the option of loading up a lower-priced model to exceed the features of its higher cost, but…

Name That Part: Goon Show Edition

comments
In yesterday’s Name That Part, I made the tragic mistake of leading with a photo of our beloved Saucy Minx. As such, nobody was actually paying any attention to the actual part involved. Which doesn’t matter, because I wasn’t paying attention either.

Mrs. LaPine-Grueninger is a crafty lady with a crafty husband who also loves all-things automotive. They used to be Euro-obsessed dubbers (ok… they still are) but a recent trip to the Creation Museum helped open their eyes to the new gospel according to Hyundai and the modern word of Kia. Hop the jump for another…

Future Hoons of America: Abdication of Parental Responsibility Edition

comments
Do you think that any helicopter mom would allow her little snowflake to “ride dirty” on a pit bike? You see, modern parenting and all the various social services that strive to keep kids out of harm’s way are stifling our childrens’ innate and noble urges to hoon. The video after the jump makes it…

Streetwalker: White on Rice Supra Masks Its Price

comments
The 1989 Toyota Supra was a generation prior to the penultimate Supra gestation, but it still has its fans. This blanco-respray with a removable roof has had its asking price covered with making tape. If only they had used more of that when painting it.

1970 Road Runner Superbird is Clearly $64,500 Overpriced

comments
It’s unclear why anyone in their right mind would buy this $65,000 426 hemi 440 + 4 speed equipped 1970 Superbird when you could have your own Überbird for “$500”.

Your Next Project Car: He Loves Me and He's Coming Home Edition

comments
For those of you unfamiliar with the Your Next Project Car series, allow me to introduce you: I have no garage, limited tools, zero storage space, and a Volkswagen. This means I am wholly unable to start on a new project car, and in fact am restricted in my ability to work on the project…

Mystery Car- Not So Mysterious Anymore

comments
Well, there you go. It didn’t take Superbadd75 long to knock that one from the pinata -it’s the Chevy Super Nova “shark” show car from 1964! Chevrolet has unveiled its latest, built around the sturdy Chevy II, which it calls the Super Nova. Its fiberglass body, finished in “fire frost” silver, has a sloping 7.5-in…

The Most Expensive Water in the World
/
/
comments
Say what you want about the price of gasoline; controversy aside, it’s the price of water that gets silly-absurd. When potable drinking water is virtually free from taps installed just about everywhere, the value equation isn’t worth debating. That $1.25, 20 oz. bottle of marketing water is where the local filling station really makes its…

comments
It’s a blast from somebody’s past with today’s mystery car. You get to see the whole thing here so no hints, nor cryptic it has to do with Boo-Berry cereal messages. Shouldn’t be too hard- make, model and year please. Answer later, but you’ll probably get it pretty fast.

On Thursday’s Name That Part, we relied on grainy picture quality and poor camera angles to stump the Hooniversal Collective — just like they do on eBay! Since nobody guessed it — although one person came close, somewhat — I’m giving the victory to alf — who didn’t come close — for his guess that…
