Darchangel posted:Also, on that wagon, almost all the B-bodies used an Olds V8 around then. I presume it offered something that GM couldn't get out of the SBC at the time. Handy for me and my Cutlass, since it made spare parts and later model accessories available. My parents had an 84 wagon. It had a 305. Friend's parents had an 89(?) old custom cruiser wagon, with a 307...... Until they put a 455 in it.

Darchangel posted:Also, the Jeep 4.0 is understressed, to put it mildly. That's why they run forever. Slap a turbo and decent head studs/gasket on a 4.0 and get moving. It worked for the Jeep XJ-R guys. The world needs more slant sixes. Designed to be made of aluminum, but ended up being built from 'Murican Iron.

DiggityDoink posted:I had a poverty spec MX3 as my second car and always wanted one of those since there were way more aftermarket parts than the base motor. Really? More aftermarket for the v6 than the 1.6 that was the same (minus turbo bits) as in the 323 GTX?

I'd guess a combination of manual steering box, like you said, with a different ratio, and people back then were way more manly.

His only requirements was that it was the boxy pre-88 models and it had to be black on black. Too bad Dick is no longer in Florida.

Faded Mars posted:Can't remember the model, but back in high school a friend's parents had a van with auto seat belts. Only the torso part was automatic, of course. I think I forgot to do up the lap belt portion pretty much every time I wasn't explicitly reminded to do so. I'm glad they're not really a thing anymore. You wouldn't have forgotten it if they had been in my Grandad's 1982(?) Chrysler Lebaron. It had that voice reminder poo poo. "Please fasten your seatbelts, please fasten your seatbelts... " *click, "Thank you".

scuz posted:Speaking of cruisers gently caress yeah, reminds me of my parent's wagon in the 80s/90s. Caprice classic, grey with woodgrain, rear facing seat. Piling fuckin 15 people in the thing, throwing eggs out the rear window, dual hinge tail gate, donuts, bumper hitching, hotboxing etc..... Theirs had a 305 and 700r4, ran like a fuckin top even after the odometer turned over 5 times. I had the sad duty of driving it to the junkyard when they finally got rid of it. Also, my friend's parents in highschool had an 89 custom cruiser. They put a 455 and TH300 in it.
