Just got back from going down this rabbit hole –

Video discussing snapshots of people with cars: 1960’s, 1970’s and 1980’s.

I was mostly looking to see if I was in there (lol). Didn’t see any civilians that I knew but there are celebrities you will recognize. The music was pretty good, too.

I like looking for cool stuff in the background. The fashions are a hoot and it was interesting to see the progression from the 60’s, with bone stock vehicles, vs the 70’s with a lot of Day 2 action.

Admittedly, there might have been a young lady or two that stopped me in my tracks.

Enjoy.

March 2nd, 1942. The location, the caption says, is a Rolls-Royce Merlin factory “in the northwest of England.”

Both Spitfires and P51 Mustangs used the Merlin engine. But this photo would be Merlins for the Spitfires.

When a meteorite mashed a Chevrolet in New York

Quote:

On October 9, 1992, at 7:50 p.m. EDT—30 years ago this week—18-year-old Michelle Knapp was watching television in her parents’ home in Peekskill, New York, when she heard a loud, metallic crash. She thought it was a car accident. Scrambling outside, Knapp discovered a hole in the trunk of her red-orange 1980 Malibu sedan. Beneath the hole, embedded in the gravel driveway, was a bowling ball–sized rock that was warm to the touch and smelled like sulfur. Shaped like a football, it was only about a foot in diameter, but it was heavy for its size—about 27 pounds.

As you know, GM started offering Front Disc Brakes on it's cars for the 1967 model year. Ford started 2 years earlier (1965) with limited availability on cars like the Mustang.

For some unknown reason Ford added FDB to the 1966 427 R code engine upgrade. FDB weigh more than drum brakes. This was the first time FDB would be available on a mid size Ford
