What is a Restomod?Image result for restomodWhile retaining the stock silhouette, it’s all pro touring, with every performance-related component upgraded. The word “restomod” is a combination of the words “restoration” and “modified.” Think of a restomod muscle car as one that is two parts restoration, and one part modified, and you’ll be really close.
While attending a local concours’d’elegance The Count, accompanied by the lovely Countess, witness a guy trying to parallel park a vintage town car. Made me realize how much we take power steering for granted. Wow!
People wonder about why the Incas did not use the wheel. If most of your “land” was tilted 30 degrees or more, you would probably give up the wheel after a few nasty accidents. :)

I wonder why the square wheel has a round pedal/axle? Wouldn’t it be more comfortable on the feet if the pedal was also square?

If you’ve ever started driving when it’s -30 you know exactly how that feels.

Speaking of rough riding, pot hole season is coming so don’t drive with your tongue between your teeth.

Better off with a pogo stick. Sooo, really, what was the original purpose of the pogo stick? Picking pogo fruit? Crushing pogos? Keeping Pogos away?
