  1. Or maybe you remember this one from 1980?
  2. I just listened to the 50s theme song and they sung " Rocket Oldsmobile" but no mention of engine in the song.
  3. Well I did google it and this was their jingle during the Chevy engine era, manybe your memory is a little blurred?
  4. 530 hp Twin Turbo Porsche power!
  5. I found nothing saying they ever called the Chevy V8s a rocket engine, the 88 and 98 were premium models that used various GM engines in later years including a V6 when they went FWD. I remember the 88s and 98s being the big top of the line cars back in the 60s and 70s for people that couldn't afford a Cadillac. The Aurora may have charged a premium for the Northstar based V8 it used but I don't know much about that model other than the reviewers liked it.
  6. Some Chevys were rebadged as Pontiacs with slightly different trim in the Great White North and if I remember right in the 50s GMC put Pontiac V8s in their pickups.
  7. The 70s van craze, I remember it well!
  8. When I was in high school I had a friend with a 63 Grand Prix with a 389 tri-power and 4 speed, same engine that went in the 64 GTO even in the bigger Grand Prix it was pretty fast! I know that but that pic is an LS Chevy with Pontiac stickers!
  9. In 1963 Poniac had their own engines, 326, 389, and 421 ci. nothing as small as a 283 for a big Poncho back then. before that I think they offered the Buick 215 in the Tempest.
  10. Right, you put a Pontiac sticker on an LS and that makes it a different engine! 🤣
  11. Ugly El Camino but the "Bed Accessory" looks Nice! 🤣
  12. I remember going 4 wheeling West of Boulder in the early 70s you would see hippies skinny dipping in the streams and ponds. I need a Wayback machine or a Delorian! 🤣
  13. Wow, I never realized how many twin engine cars there were and never seen a Ford/Chrysler mix before, only Chevy/Chrysler!
  14. She built the engine in her 64.5 mustang that she restored before she got the gig on the show. Just because they don't do much engine work on the show doesn't mean she isn't qualified. With her looks who cares anyway! 🤣
  15. Anyone watch Netflix Car Masters; Rust to Riches? Constance Nunes is a good reason to watch!
  16. I think you are right, BMW cars are pornographic! 🤣🤣🤣
  17. Anyone know where this was taken, what fort is that?
