ITT post the best gloves to buy wives.

(That's not a bad idea. Probably need to get something that works with phones/touch screens.)

My wife totally mangled the steering wheel of her Honda with a combination of lotion and rings. So, after we sold it for an absurd amount of money to Carvana last year, she bought a pair of driving gloves before she started dailying my old e24. (I tried making fun of her for wearing driving gloves while driving a BMW, but she was right, so it didn't really work out.)

Anyway, get driving gloves for your wives. A+ would recommend.

Gremlin X, the sticker says Stand Back, I Built This poo poo Myself



1969 Vista Cruiser



1969 Beaumont, a Canada only model. Chevy body and drivetrain, unique grills and lights, Pontiac Tempest dashboard.

I went to the Good Guys Car show today. They tend to lean far too show and shine for my tastes, but I did find a few AI worthy cars to share.

We immedately found ourselves around the autocross cars right when walking in, so we were off to a good start. There was no shortage of cool racey poo poo to look at, but the most eye catching of all was this Ranchero.



As documented elsewhere in this thread, I love vintage muscle with aero and fender flares, so I was sold immediately. In chatting with the builders (pictured), they mentioned they're currently thrid in their class, despite being up against much higher dollar competition and running the stock 6 cylinder. They thought they could get back to second place as soon as they work around the AWD system pushing the front end.



Wait sorry what? AWD?

It was at this point they revealed the truck was bodyswapped onto a late-ish model Audi (A6 maybe? I don't know Audis), explaining the name Quattchero. I love it.

Next - lowered stepside trucks are good. I should actually get to work on mine.



Here is a VW. It is Too Cool.



Here's under the hood of that VW.





Sadly I did not get to hear it run.

Last is this beat up old Scout 80.



Note the chopped top and raised and stretched wheel wells. If off road rat rods weren't already a thing they are now.

I legit lol'd at the flat 8 squareback. it has no cooling system but it's pretty clever.

The scout is a lot less beat than it looks. There's at least a pair of 60s under it with ehhh 4-6 grand of tire/wheel on it.

I'll have you know that VW motor has not one but two whole fans. Also there are two heat exchangers (presumably oil) in the clamshell.

And yeah, I am selling the Scout short. The bodywork was rough, but it was pretty serious underneath.

That's pretty cool.
Those Greenlight cars (I think they're pretty much all Greenlight) not only look detailed and fantastic, but they roll amazingly well. I wonder what they're using to launch the cars? Just a practiced careful flick?

The autocross part of the show is the best.
That VW was unexpected. Definitely awesome. I also appreciate the effort on the Ranchero in making the flares match the patina of the car.
Neat fog light coves on the bumper of that F-100. Is that handmade, or does someone make those? Looks clean.

fake edit: the flex fans mounted on top of the VW engines for cooling!

That front bumper is the first thing that jumped out to me when I saw that truck. I stared at it for a good while and it was as well done up close as it looks in the picture. No clue on whether it was built or bought, but now I want to do something similar.

it looks like the original bumper, which has a flat spot in the middle for the license plate. looks like the guy (or someone, at least) added the little ridge in the middle to separate it into light buckets

Plus, he'd left the gate open and there was evil everywhere.
