It needs a ton of work before it can be driven again, but the good news is it's structurally and mechanically sound. My only regret is that the bumper and turn signal got damaged while it was being moved - parts are nonexistent for these trucks. -Tim

93 Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera S Had it for 10 years bought off my ex high school principal , this car wont die!
94 Buick Roadmaster Limited. LT1 engine , gran touring suspension , all the toys but leather and sunroof . Got this for my 50th , my wife said I could get a "special car" for myself  . Needs some work, actually more than I thought but these aren't exactly getting anymore plentiful these days so it is definitely worth saving  04 Toyota Sienna van. It's a Toyota what else can I say?! Its got lots of room for hauling consoles... Hmmmm I'm sure a Sony KV-3000R would fit in there with the seats out.....

93' Explorer Sport 5-speed mom bought new in 93' and became mine in 02' and still daily drive to this day. This thing is so solid I just never needed or wanted to replace it.
10' Corolla S - My wife's daily she bought when we were dating and paid off. It's holding up just like the Explorer has...but that's expected being a Toyota and all.

It got upper teens on the hi-way. It's been in storage for a while, which is not good. The check engine light is on. I did a scan and showed a fault stating one cylinder is running lean. I bought my 1st Dakota, a 1991 with 141K miles on it with a 318. The 318 is practically bullet proof. I bought three used and one new. They all went well over 100K miles, without major issues.

Nice Mustang! Be careful not to bump those so-called bumpers.
My first new car was a 66 Mustang coupe with a small V8, same red paint as yours, with "parchment" interior. It was made late in the model year, and a few of the parts under the hood were from the 1967 line. Of course, it didn't have such fancy wheels. What color is your interior?

My Mustang has a white interior in the Pony version. I also have the air conditioning, but no longer installed. Photos taken during the drive in the cinema, is a meeting of the Dutch Mustang club. In the back seat a radio with FM for sound of the movie.

Nice! I even spotted a couple fox bodies in that picture.
I shoulda took pictures of the ports on the Audi. It was nasty! I used a walnut blaster to clean em out. I also ended up changing the fuel feed from that weird banjo fitting to a hose/barb type because I couldn't get that banjo to seal. I also fixed a coolant leak and have the speedo working but I gotta send that ABS module out for rebuild. Next job is the timing chain on the back that links both camshafts, its making a lot of noise!

from the GM mid size cars. ( Olds, Buick, Pontiac, Chevy.). At first glance I would guess "Olds Cutlass F85". BTW what is the motor ? Our old mid-size cars came with in-line 6 or a selection of V8's up to 455 cid & over 400 hp. They could be hard to control ! 73 Zeno  LFOD !

The engine is fully designed in Detroit (named CIH, cam in head engine). The body is german design, with that Coke shape (" Hüftschwung ") , was consider very sexy for european eyes at that time. There was a straigth line body project, fortunally didn't saw the ligth. There was two series, the simple models, named Rekord with 4 cyl engines and the elegant series named Commodore with 6 cyl engines. Motors from 1500 cc to 2600 cc. Two and four doors sedans, coupes, stwagons, very few convertibles. I don’t want to bore translating hp to CV, liters, etc, since the soul of a car is not in the cold numbers. Yes, there were lights cars with an outdated steering and suspension system, but soft to drive, very reliable and economical. In the mid 60s, american cars become too big and expensive here. "An even more sporty model than the GS, the Commodore GS/E, debuted in March 1970. It had a 2.5 L engine equipped with Bosch D-jetronic fuel injection system developing 150 PS (110 kW), which gave the car a top speed of 197 km/h (122 mph)" (wiki). After the end of production in Germany, it was made in Brazil, like the Chevrolet Opala ( Opel body - Impala 6 engines), there with others terminations, and more powerful but hungry engines. In Brazil it was manufactured till early 90s, replacing most of chrome with black plastics. Mine is an anemic 1700 cc 82 hp four cylinder, four gear manual. When you press the gas pedal, she says: what? Ha, you want go? hahaha. Ok, let's go to get more of your trash TVs and radios.
