180 mpg car

My family always took pride in American made products, but we also took pride in owning what we felt was the best. I personally value some products made in Germany, UK, and Japan as the best. Couple of my favorite cars, were a '64 Porche, and a '65 VW Bug. One of my favorite motorcycles was my '65 Triumph Bonneville. I've always had an American made muscle car in the stable, and mostly Ford or Dodge pickup trucks, as my daily driver. When it came to my construction business, all my pickup trucks were Fords or Dodge. I think customers always appreciate seeing that, even if the back is filled with cannibals from NZ. When it comes to wimmin, I've noticed I have a thing for Canadian. Some of the wimmin I've been cornered by have questionable DNA… so I'm always grateful if I don't wake up next to a Wildebeast. That is the only area I have extremely low standards…. but I always feel lucky.

You have to notice the 1967 VW Opera window bus. This had a rag top that slid back too. ![]() I had lots of nice cars and trucks, but most of the photos are still not scanned to digital. I have some photos of my favorite trucks, one a '78 Dodge Powerwagon (last year of the 440 wedge), and the other a '54 Fat Fender Ford w/ an original factory Offenhauser 6-pack. My hottest muscle car was a '70 Cuda 383 magnum. I built it with a 3/4 race cam, and balanced and blueprinted the motor. It lit your hair on fire.
