CC Clue
Posted on July 19, 2012 | 10 CommentsMajo8 was the only correct guess on the ’76 Grand Prix. He got to a 2 year range on his first guess, and and nailed it exactly on an […] -
Vintage Cohort: 1995 – When Beater ’64 GTO’s Still Existed
Posted on July 19, 2012 | 20 CommentsIt only seems like yesterday, when one might still see an old beater ’64 GTO along with some other junk. Cohort Contributor ggh06 says that this was shot in Johnstown, […] -
Cohort Sighting: 1988 Yugo – Still Going In Spain
Posted on July 19, 2012 | 12 CommentsI’m endlessly surprised that I haven’t found a Yugo in Eugene. It just doesn’t seem right somehow, as we have all the qualities needed to keep one going forever: mild […] -
Miniature Curbside Classic: The Monkeemobile By Husky – One Owner
Posted on July 19, 2012 | 15 CommentsTime for another Mini CC! Today’s featured model is a blast from the past, the Monkeemobile, as issued in 1/64th scale by Husky back in the ’60s. Husky was Corgi’s […] -
CC Outtake: The Angler Fish
Posted on July 18, 2012 | 15 CommentsI’ve been watching this Metro’s transformation for several years, and it seems to be complete now. Just needs a hood that opens and closes electrically. -
CC Outtake: Drydocked – 1975 Cornbinder
Posted on July 18, 2012 | 15 CommentsI took this picture in December. Sometimes it’s tough to tell if something is just sidelined temporarily or if it’s suffering from terminal neglect. This week I needed to drive […] -
Cohort Capsule: 1936 Morgan Three-Wheeler – The Chaste Version
Posted on July 18, 2012 | 8 CommentsNow here’s a contrast to those Fleetwood 75s: a 1936 Morgan. And it’s not the usual one we think of with the exposed V2 engine hanging proudly out front; this […] -
CC Outtake: 1964 Cadillac Series 75 – The Fraternal Twins
Posted on July 18, 2012 | 30 CommentsIt is hard to say which got my attention first; finding two of these Cadillacs, or finding one of them painted up like the American flag. In 1964, Cadillac’s 75-Series […] -
Curbside Casualty: Flat Faced Flathead
Posted on July 17, 2012 | 19 CommentsI am sure that since 1949, an awful lot of ’49 Fords have rear ended other cars. After all, Ford made over a million of them and (according to Wiki) […] -
CC Clue: Fresh Meat On The Grille
Posted on July 17, 2012 | 6 CommentsSo many cars in the files, but here I am about to show you my latest find. The thrill of the hunt must be shared while it’s fresh, not […] -
CC Outtake: Starlight – And A Note About CC Pictures (Updated)
Posted on July 17, 2012 | 5 CommentsSince trains are on the brains: took our regular urban hike up to Skinner Butte (in background) last night, where we were treated to a truly psychedelic sunset. And from […] -
CC Outtake: Eclectic Driveway – Full Representation
Posted on July 17, 2012 | 5 CommentsAnother in our series of Eclectic Driveways: this one has a number of details that make it irresistible to not peek over the fence. All three of the major car-producing […] -
Curbside Clueless: The Curious Mystery Of The Recurring Scion xB – Toyota Noisy Clutch Release Bearing
Posted on July 17, 2012 | 59 CommentsHelp!! Calling all mechanics and arm-chair mechanics! I’m utterly stumped. In terms of reliability, my 2005 Scion Xb has in every way lived up to what it looks like: a […] -
CC Clue: D Is For…
Posted on July 16, 2012 | 13 CommentsThere were lots of guesses on the 1976 Ninety Eight, but John was first to correctly identify it. Congratulations. Is today’s Clue easy or hard? What starts with D? Well, […] -
Freeway Breakdowns: Here’s What I Saw. So When Was Your Last One?
Posted on July 16, 2012 | 44 CommentsTwo weeks ago, I showed you what I saw on the 110 mile trip up I5 to the Portland Airport. On Friday evening, I had to make the trip again […]
