the transition of the steam pumper from horse drawn to front drive, to the modern vehicle version




from horse drawn above, to the motor driven below





I've posted all of these in the past at different times, but though that's great for citing sources, it's lousy at a comprehensive comparison / contrast  post

Comparison of the F1 steering wheel since 1969

Great big 1916 Pierce Arrow touring cars at the Arizona Concours



Though both of these Pierce Arrows are 1916, they have different color tires. Just noticing.



notice that this dashboard and it's gauges are the same as the one below, just not restored, and it makes quite a difference visually. I find a comparison like this remarkable.


from Monte Carlo. Not every day you see a legit world traveling 1916 automobile



the variety of trunks at the Palos Verdes Concours














Kyle posted his dad's Super Bee on Facebook today, it's the same colors as my R/T, except it has stock rims instead of Magnum 500's

I find it remarkable to have never seen another 1969 Coronet exactly like mine until now, after 12 years of ownership. I found it impossible until now to see what it will look like with stock rims and dog dish hubcaps.

2 minor differences of the exterior, are his mud flaps, and lack of the optional rocker panel aluminum trim pieces

How much for a pair of tires? Here's what I found, and where
I asked for price quotes from these places, and the brand name varies from place to place. . . but when you are buying tires don't you want to go with the least expensive? I do. No way I'm able to afford BFG's or Goodyears all the way around my daily driver and my musclecar.

For 2 tires, 215 60/15 total cost out the door is

PepBoys Cooper Definity 75K mileage warranty -------------------$187
Wal Mart DP GT-4 (whatever that is) 40K mileage ---------------$170
plus tax
Costco Michellin 80k mileage ---------------------------------------$264
Tire Depot -----------------------------------------------------------$166

I like these guys - I always go to them first, for both of my cars- but they haven't won me over like Discount has


EXP tires Cooper SCE 50K ------------------------------------------$214

to get your business EXP will match the competition's price. Not good enough for me.

Discount Tires Koumo 50K ----------------------------------------$177

And if the price, road hazard warranty fee, and all the goodies that Discount will do for you weren't enough, find the same tire advertised cheaper elsewhere, and they'll beat it.... not like the high price at EXP from step one, Discount has the 2nd lowest price for a pair of tires, and then there's the extra service.

I like these guys. That's why I keep going back to Discount tires.
