Man that looks like fun. I wonder what vintage cars are relatively affordable buys, I bet there's tons of Model Ts out there that could be revived.

In Europe, an Austin 7 would be reasonably affordable counterpart to the Model T. Pretty cute little cars.

So awesome. It's a shame they didn't cut up a different C4 corvette to do it though. C4 purists got off easy this time.

I was in LA with my STi two weeks ago and drove that road. It doesn't look as dangerous as it is in that video and he is going very fast down it relative to what I was doing.

The DRIVE version of the story is that he screwed them over with the whole paid subscription thing and then immediately took off to do his own (free) thing instead. Needless to say, the DRIVE guys weren't happy about it.

Then again, Chris Harris made DRIVE popular, not the other way around.

Also, I though he swore off Ferraris forever due to how controlling Ferrari is towards which reviewers gets to drive which cars and where.

He test drove the F12 a while back if I'm not mistaken. I thought Ferrari told him to gently caress off though because of his attitude toward their typical sales process.

Bear in mind that in its day the S76 was reputed to be putting out around 300bhp and that all that power was transmitted to the axle by way of chains

No but for real that front pushrod suspension arrangement they came up with is nuts.

Also billet control arms and spindles are so sexy. And note the magical bootless/greaseless tie rod end and balljoints.

Really seems like they could've moved the timing lights further from the stop box :stare:

I swear I've seen that truck before but I can't find it. It's either a '67 C10, or a a '68-'72 with a '67 cab swapped on it. And it sounds loving evil.

It's like the car was being driven by a very poorly coded pathfinding program that is only allowed to turn right while reversing. I would not be surprised if it turns out the driver was having a stroke or something that made the concept of a left side disappear.
