I should have gotten a picture, but earlier this week (Monday I think?) there was a 550 Maranello street parked at a meter on Gloucester Street in the Back Bay in Boston. It was about 15 degrees out with a bit of snow on the ground. Love it.

Monday I saw 4 different Nissan Pulsars... 4... all on the road and driving. I didn't know that many still existed in the universe, let alone SEPA.

In case anyone forgot the little 1989 gem I'm referring to:

Could you drive around with the hatch just off like a mini truck? I remember seeing a couple of those way back when going to school in Santa Cruz.

Speaking of quirky late 80’s early 90”s Japanese cars. I considered on of these prior to buying my 91 CRX Si new. It was pretty cool with its TINY V6 and 5spd manual.

I’m still glad I went CRX. That was an awesome first new car.

My Mom had one with the little V6 and a manual. Fun and cute little car.
And none of the pulsars had the sport back on, although I remember that confi from back in the day.

Yes. And t-tops off. Almost kinda like a convertible mini-pickup

1952 Kaiser Manhattan at a used car lot in Michigan. The same place also had a 79 Town Car and an 87 928S4.



1970 Dodge Coronet convertible. Apparently only 1400 were made. This one is in my cousin’s husband’s barn, where he’s in the process of welding in new floorboards as part of a manual swap. Has a 383.
