Honest car reviews both big and small
Spellcheck went crazy with this Lots of red lines below my copy when I wrote this blog entry about the Open Rekord. It kept wanting to change it to "Record". You know me and odd ball cars.

1957 T-bird wonderful in white! ... Early Thunderbirds were a lovely blend of two-seater styling and boulevard cruiser with dandy hooded headlights and tiny jet-like fins on the tail.

Mercedes' sporty C300 coupe a smoothie ...            Mercedes-Benz is on a roll.

Autoart creates a stellar Corvette C7 Z06 ... Vettes are cool even if their current buyers are skewing gray and retired.
