New video on the channel! I bought this boxy beige 1985 Dodge Mini Ram Van for $1, 000, but it has plenty of issues: bad tires, cracked taillights, exterior damage, and constant stalling. Let’s inspect it all and make a repair plan.

I had three tows on the same road in two months. How is that even possible? Rule of thumb: never buy a white car?

This is what happens when you chop up an old car commercial and add synths, guitars, drums, and bass. A 1981 Japanese Isuzu Piazza ad became the perfect remix project—blending my love of music, weird old cars, and Olinthus pedals.

@MEME5554 Cross-stitch is the perfect heatwave project—hope Marx gets a cooler walk later

Today, let’s talk about the first-generation Isuzu Impulse. Known as the Isuzu Piazza outside North America, it featured Giorgetto Giugiaro styling, Chevette roots, rear-wheel drive, and later turbo power. Rare, rad, and mostly forgotten today.

This is your sign to take a road trip in a weird car.

Twice while driving my WiLL, people have yelled across several lanes, “What the hell is THAT thing?

Concrete / Caldina.

Do you think I’m weird?

@AthenaSettfw The matte black and red calipers give it a bold, distinctive look—definitely tempting over the standard T2

Which late-’80s luxury roadster used an airplane in its assembly line? The Cadillac Allanté. Pininfarina-built bodies flew from Italy to Michigan in modified 747s, earning it the title “the longest assembly line in the world.

No idea if this thing will pass smog. Guess we’ll find out.

The first-gen Isuzu Impulse paired Giugiaro styling with Chevette roots, RWD, Lotus-tuned suspension, and an available 2. 0L turbo. Rare in the US, it remains one of the coolest forgotten ’80s sports cars.
