I was a freshman in HS living in Colorado when Red Dawn was released. It was like a Cold War wet dream.
*It was filmed in NW New Mexico, IIRC.

We don't need to get cute with the "know how you are gay" bullshit. Half of the members here know firsthand, and they showed their videos to the other half.
Just kidding
Couldn't walk by that because the set up was too easy.
Murder is no where's near as bad as hurting a liberals feelings
I don't know what year that's from but $150 seems like a shitload of money for a mini bike back then.
I paid $800 for a new 81 RM80 in the fall of 81.
The focal length on this photo makes it look like a model car.The Dino is my personal favorite,,, just something about it I really like.
Mike
20mm, oh the vibration. Just a 50 cal in the door is a tooth rattler. Now the 7.62 mini was much more pleasant, especially at night with a searchlight co-witnessed with the gun.
Grammar school air raid drills in the 50's
I asked teacher WTF?, if they nuke us. How will hiding in the basement under a coat against the concrete wall protect us?
Teacher said it was only so they didn't have to bury us later.
If you were close enough and outside there wouldn’t be a need to bury you
Most beautiful car ever was a Ford.
An Atmos to be precise.
Then there is the Lambo Super Diablo owned by Mike Tyson that I tweaked.
I took the useless A/C system and made 2 evaporators into intake air chillers unlike anything I've seen before or since (hey it's not like you could use the AC in a roofless car...so I put it to work).
Twin turbo V12 and was squirting just over a thou horsies after my upgrades.
Or could it be the uber rare Maserati I restored ?
1957 Frua Coupe, 1 of 18 made and only about 6-7 left.
Yea, that's me back in my hey day.
Pfft.
I do (did?) cars like you can't even imagine.
And boats.
And (gasp) planes.

1937 Zephyr one of the sexiest cars ever made.
If you like cool old cars and you’re ever in SW Florida see if you can score tickets for the Revs institute, worth the money. When I went I think tickets were booked 4-6 months out, I happened to walk in not knowing as someone was canceling theirs.

I grew up 7 or 8 miles, as the crow flies, from Barksdale AFB. I knew I was toast.
In Lafayette in the mid 60’s they would crank the air raid siren at straight up noon! You could set you watch to it. It was loud!

Used to be a common practice at lots of bases.
I paid an even $1k for a RM125 in '78.I paid $800 for a new 81 RM80 in the fall of 81.

They do that here every first Wednesday of the month - although it's the tornado warning sirens, different tone for actual emergencies like invasion. A couple of times "technical issues" have prevented them doing it on the normal schedule, so panic ensues..In Lafayette in the mid 60’s they would crank the air raid siren at straight up noon!

I know it's not exactly the same, you could gather a whole crew of the worlds finest engineers, fabricators, engine builders...... Create a replica of that car you could enjoy outside of the "viewing room" for a fraction of 60M.
I don’t know why “guys” cringe when they see a notification that I posted something?
Dude wtf? You need help.
Duh, why do you think he hangs out here?
Don't get me wrong, I'm not a hater of Euro sports cars. I grew up racing dirt bikes and drag cars and got to take some fast Porsches, BMWs and even a 365 BB on road tracks. But I'm mostly partial to cars I wrenched on and drove. A friend bought a brand new 69 Z and got the 4 wheel disc brake option, factory headers (delivered in the trunk with cast iron manifolds bolted on) chambered exhaust and cross ram dual 4 barrel intake. I helped install a roller cam and mod the suspension. It was a road car but could put down mid-to upper 12s in the quarter once Lonnie got some good rubber on the back. It was a blast to drive, defining "throttle response". We all raced dirt bikes, so we knew how to make low torque motors get up on the pipe. I miss those days every now and then.
