 i love volvo but what the fuck kind of model name is that 
 Grand Luxe Executive, 240 series 5 doors (4 doors + hatch). She called it the nigger pimp mobile. 
 the caddy wagon would probably be a better fit

 oh man this thing goes hard 
 the white wall tires does it for me 
 it reminds me of the 1959 Cadillac Miller-Meteor Sentinel 
 bro im gonna buy one hearses-for-sale.com/tag/1959-cadillac/ 
 I like this one

 i want this so fucking bad ebay.com/itm/276029478492

im going to contact this guy 
 This looks like it might blow me and my 9mm up at level 3 if I stand too close while fighting raiders 
 I NEED IT 
 @pistolero if this guy accepts my offer in message I'm going to come stay with you for a bit so i can broker transit to canada 
 Honestly with how close you are to ohio if you want a classic car take a trip across the border and drive one back. Northern Ohio is full of classic cars that are not super expensive from boomers kids offloading them after death or them getting sent to a home 
 i want something way, way outside of the rust belt. this rust is fine, the rust out of ohio is not 
 so we are clear I wouldn't paint it, but I would clear coat it 
 No one drives their classics in the winter in ohio. It might of had a few seasons back in the day. They are almost always super clean and cheaper than average like this I found in 3 seconds for example 
cleveland.craigslist.org/cto/d/andover-1962-chevrolet-bel-air/7663213709.html 
 oh man its got the good 350 in it 
 look at this fucking shit ebay.com/itm/335005298597 
 anyway the point of the link I posted is because I want a "rat rod" which is exactly what that fleetwood sixty special is. i would throw a very high end clear coat on it after pulling any dents or dings and leave it as is. thats the look i want 
 rustmobiles are great and cool until the tetanus shot. 
 Ah yeah fair enough then, winter midwest rust would be a bit too advanced for that. 
 basically if pete is fine with me staying with him for a week i will probably leave tomorrow or the next day and buy this 
 last time i tried to meet pete it turns out he has moleman nocturnal schedule of waking up at 7 PM and doing internet man admin things until 6 AM
hard man to find 
 weird because i have no problem getting him any time 
 Yeah the 50s and 60's caddies were always beautiful. I am more of a 60 Lincoln continental man myself

 I am diggin those headlights 
 Yeah they knew what they were doing in the 50's and 60's woth aesthetics especially when it came to headlights. I always even as a kid wanted a 65 Buick Riviera, the car is beautiful and the headlights are amazing.

 mind blowing,
jamie pull up the jfk assassination footage from the selfie angle 
 That might be the ugliest car I've ever seen 
 shit take curved glass on any vehicle is cool as fuck 
 Uhem

 not curved you can see its literally two pieces 
 When I worked at an oem supplier factory I worked on the cube inside  door panel lines a few times when we had to make them for a little bit and nissan allows the qc of russia/china/mexico tier. I wanted to shoot myself because they allowed holes in the doors but had to be smaller than a pen tip so all day I would have to stick a pen tip in holes as I drove 6 screws in 5 seconds 
 >shit take curved glass on any vehicle is cool as fuck
Same vintage, same condition. Which one should you take?

 thats a shit comparison too because the bronco got the bronco 2 treatment and it had rounded glass. my dad had one when i was growing up

 >Ford 
 that was the coolest fucking thing when i was a kid. we lived outside of the city so it was always bright stars and having curved glass allowed me to see much higher up than if it was a traditional window 
 There is a broken down one near my house. I thought about asking if I could buy it, but I don't know how to fix cars, so it would probably sit with me too. 
 >thats a shit comparison too because the bronco got the bronco 2 treatment
LOL. They were both in the showrooms at the exact same time.

Bronco II was a BINO (Bronco In Name Only). The full size Bronco never had those goofy windows. Everyone is familiar with what the "OJ" Broncos looked like. This is what all the Broncos looked like. (note the slider window on the 78)

 Sadly Volvo is about to destroy their entire brand by shutting down combustion engine production and producing only electric cars. RIP Volvo's reputation as reliable, heavy duty vehicles. 
 They started going down hill after ford bought them in the late 90s imo. Last I checked the chinese bought them? 
 So I've heard. Such a shame. The five cylinder Volvo engine is cool. 
 I learned to drive on one, surprisingly quick for a big whale of a car (it was the 5cyl turbo version). I always wanted to test drive one of those tiny c30s with that engine. 
 Sadly, neither one of us is going to get that opportunity. It's crappy electric engines and five minute "walkable" cities with infinity niggers from now on.
