Car Whisperer

American steel, Muthafuckas.

70 Torino squire wagon
351 Cleveland
AC, optional shoulder belts
Rear facing jump seat
56k miles


My other car is 1972 Ford 4000 tractor built at the Ford Dagenham plant. English steel.
They dont build cars like that anymore.

I grew up with my fathers Ford 5000. Built in England also around 1969-1970… I cant remember the exact year he purchased it. I learned to drive that tractor before I learned to ride a bike. That tractor was a beast!!

Pure crazy.

I kinda wanted a Gremlin X Levi’s Edition when I was younger, so much younger than today. Help!

I had a Levi’s Gremlin back in college in the ‘90s. A ‘74 with a 268 6cyl with a constant valve tick that was part of its character. I bought it for $400 and sold it two years and ~ 30k miles later for $500.

The upholstery was blue denim with the copper Levi’s buttons.

The car was ugly AF but people were always asking about it. My girlfriends loved it. 😅
