Yep. Pretty sure they've been there since before 2020. I want to say it was a Tully's for a long time before that.

I used to work across the street and yeah that was a tullys and blazin bagel was further down 108th. I enjoyed the car spotting in Bellevue but don’t miss being there everyday.

With Alfa at the top of the 2023 JD Power ratings, anything is possible.

wait... Alfas are considered reliable now?

I know I said I was just going to keep rocking the 240, but it just seemed so lonely out there...

So I flew to SLC to get this 2010 T6 last Friday. Saw it listed in the morning, got on a 1pm flight, bought it, and was back in Bozeman just before midnight.

I've already got a pretty long/normal 14 year old turbo Volvo to-do list for it, but once it's up to snuff it should be a good townee/ski car.

[Art Shirk]

Ha, awesome story and cool car. Can’t imagine you woke up that morning thinking you’d end up in SLC and then back in Bozone with a new rig.

Six vintage pinto wagons. Same color? Who the fuck hoarded these?



PS. Looks like seven on the truck.
Only $16k each!!

He's gotta keep one for himself, I suppose.

As a memory of how awful that "investment" was?

Nice work and cool story. I loved my '14 T6, absolute tank and such a nice, huge interior.

If that trailer gets rear ended does it all go up in smoke ? $16k for a Pinto seems outright criminal or short bussed.

If it was $16k for all, it could be fun to get 5 friends to chip in and have a private IROC style race series: road course, dirt track, SCCA, oval track, drag, off-road, culminating in a demolition derby.

Remember what IROC stands for?

Lol
That's accurate.
I grew up on Long Island in the 80s.
The GT/LX vs IROC vs GN guido wars were real.

I almost bit the bullet in the back of a pinto wagon circa ‘79 or ‘80

Pinto was a good handling car

Pretty much any other piece of machinery that was on fire from that era.

Probably some studio making a movie that features a yellow pinto wagon in a starring role. Some odd couple road trip thing starring Zach Galifinakis and Melissa McCarthy? Maybe an 80 for Brady sequel??!

Wouldn't it be easier just to just light each other on fire?

Bought this pair of new old stock bilstein airmatic front struts off car-part.com for $800. Wish I had the tools and wherewithal to do this job. It’s not hard.. Once these are on I’ll basically have 7 new airmatic components and should be good to go for a while..I hope. All in the entire 7 components over the last few years will be around $4k.

Compressor
2 rear airbags
2 rear struts
2 front struts.

The rf strut is not leaking but it is 17 years old and has 130k miles.

[Timberridge]

I hate air suspension with a passion.

Hydraulic shocks leak and have limited life. The rear struts on my wagon are not airmatic. They are hydraulic shocks with ADS.
