These posts are almost like a TV show...lol

I don't think I'm gonna buy an Eldorado, now. 12mpg highway was almost enough deterrent, but spending that kinda money on the front end every few years, geesh!

Like I understand FWD demons. All I know is that every 4-8 years I have to spend about $4,000 to rebuild the front end of the Eldorado because it invariably falls apart after that long. The CV boots get screwed etc, etc. It is a money maker for the shops and dealerships I guess.
Well that was obvious from the video. lol lol

Yeah, well I got it for free and it wasn't worth what I paid for it. My mother actually broke an axle once----on the way out to the dealership to get the FWD devil fixed. It is not confined to that car though. A friend of mine had to have the FWD on her Honda rebuilt too and it is only about 4 years old. FWD the gift that keeps on taking.

Get one prior to 67, rear wheel drive up to that point.
I've driven a 71, 74, and 76. All are about the same, and all literally float down the road. Best riding car I've ever been in.
The older ones shouldn't ride any different though.

To "steer" us back, tonight I watched Miami Vice Golden Triangle parts 1 and 2. Still good. :eusa_clap

The 1957 Eldorado Biarritz would be a good choice.

Oh and Mars Attacks.

Tom would have to sell all his cars for that one.

Adam 12, 2 episodes. It's funny because I can see character actors that were later used in Dragnet or Emergency. They were on Adam 12 as a test I suppose.

Maybe. I had the chance to pick up one of those for 3 Gs many years ago. I should have bought it.

Is that the one,

"I don't even really work here."
"That's what makes this so difficult."

A good one but no. George works for Kruger and gives Christmas presents to his coworkers in honor of the "Human Fund."

 

[AtomicEraTom]

Yeah, I'd love a 59 Eldo Biarritz.

I was looking at a '76 and a '77 that were bargains, but just too bad on gas for me.

I'll take the 59 Eldorado Biarritz Convertible any day---even with the lousy mileage.

I am still keeping my 75 eldo though---if I ever get it back from the upholsterer---the dumbass.

All I knew about his: "Hey, there's that Power Juicer fella from TV"

It was on for 34 years! From 1951 to 1985! Geez! I remember some of the feats of strength he did even when he got older. Including,
at sixty, swimming from Alcatraz to Fisherman's Wharf handcuffed, shackled and towing a thousand-pound boat, and at seventy, battling currents while handcuffed and shackled, towing seventy boats holding seventy people for a mile and a half across Long Beach Harbor!

He did?! I must have missed that one but I don't doubt it. lol lol

Oh wait, I found the story:
"When a 21-year-old Arnold Schwarzenegger first came to America in 1968, he witnessed 54-year-old Jack LaLanne down on Venice Beach in California doing thousands of push-ups and chin-ups. A challenge was declared — and Arnold, the youngest Mr. Universe at the time, went on to lose. Badly.

"I beat him in chin-ups and push-ups," LaLanne says. "He said, 'That Jack LaLanne's an animal! I was sore for four days. I couldn't lift my arms!' "

54-year-old Jack LaLanne
'That Jack LaLanne's an animal! I was sore for four days. I couldn't lift my arms!'

I guess this calls up for another episode:
