Lots of cars have been cruising metro Detroit’s Woodward Avenue all week, but on Saturday the will turn the fabled Michigan M-1 into a genuine traffic jam of classic iron from all around the world. Erin Marquis and I are going to be there, and you should go, too. So let’s meet beforehand, shall we?

After calling dozens of businesses to find a meetup spot, I landed on one of my favorite salvage yards in all of the land, in Pontiac, Michigan. It’s an incredible yard built on the grounds of an old General Motors stamping plant at 240 E Columbia Ave, Pontiac, MI 48340.

My Postal Jeep and I will be there from 9:30 until 10:30, at which point, we’ll all head out to Woodward, and cruise until either A) We get tired of it or B) Our cars break down. Either way.

Well, damn. I guess this proves it. Looks like Ford named the Pinto after the horse, not the bean. Huh. I could have sworn it was for the bean. Looks like I owe that guy at the car show I got into a screaming, crying, chair-throwing argument with an...

So, I Need To Get A U.S. Driver’s License
So, I Need To Get A U.S. Driver’s License
When , a decent number of commenters took offense to the fact that I don’t yet have a U.S. license, rather just a useless UK licence. I’m currently going through the process of rectifying this. It’s been an interesting process full of complicated forms to prove that I’m a...

A video is making the rounds on social media showing the moment ’s fire suppression system malfunctioned, blanketing cars and the surrounding area in powder.
