Even Totota's doing it...

I've seen a lot of V-8 bikes, and of course those V-10 Tomahawks, but this one has two(2) wheels, and lots of real world miles.

OK, say you buy it. I doubt many strangers would make the connection and ask about it, but mostly just think it's another ambulance. Each of your friends individually, or in groups, say WTF? You explain the connection to the 35 year old Burt Reynolds movie to smiles and nods.

Now what? You're driving a crappy '70s Dodge van (I had a '74 Maxi), with a hundred grand on it, and attracting the attention of every cop around(don't rob the 7-11), and better not turn any of those lights on. Car shows? Burt's fan club conventions? Hire a medic and make money with it?

Just kick my puppy next time whydontcha?!:mad:

:p:

Why, you gonna buy it? Then what, is my question.
I can see it in some museum or Hardrock Café, but own it? Fuck that.

I'd buy the beast, as long as I can get this guy...

If Farrah Fawcett had let him perform the exam he wanted desperately to perform, she might still be with us.

Just sayin'.

Oh, no you dint!

It's true though.

Nevermind how many rims (2, two, btw, for you Wendy's employees), it's the sales pitch:

:facepalm:

Back when Henry was disgorging Model-Ts, this is how Packard would break in engines before they were ever fired.

Wow. I did not know that.

No wonder Packards were so good.

Popdigr drove a Packard when he was a young man. He says he's never, to this day, experienced a smoother engine. I believe it was a straight-8.
