Is that a 67 or 66? My high school friend Brad had one, with a 2 speed automatic trans . Yep.
This things we did in the late 1970’s
I have no idea what year it is; it was just an old car parked behind my office that I took a shot of. :)
And I can definitely relate to your comment "this things we did in the late 1970s"...amazing we're still alive! 😂

Not certain but based on when going to school, would have been 1971/72. If in 1972, would have been a few months before shot on Maryland, ending his campaign for the Democrat Party Presidential nominee.

When I was younger, I had a thing for AMC Pacers. I always wanted one of the ugly cars but I never owned one..except this one. On my birthday, my then husband and a friend made a deal with the guy that owned the local wrecking yard and when I wasn't home, a wrecker delivered this Pacer to the front of my house and left it there for me. Happy Birthday! 😂

And you're brave enough to post it here. Shamelessly? :)

Years ago I bought a very used Mini Cooper S (1250 cc) to race mini stocks. It was only running on 3 cylinders but still quick. Managed a good time at a Solo One at Watkins Glen. Should have kept it, would be worth some $ now.
This is a 2011 mini clubman and I use it for local driving as it uses way less gas than my Jeep. It definitely is a fun little zippy car that actually has more room that it appears to have.

Original Mini’s were a blast to drive, with those tiny tires it handled great and one of the few front wheel drive cars around. Stock color was red with a black roof, they asked John Cooper why that combination, he said so he could tell his cars from the rest at Monte Carlo!
