Don't know whether to laugh or cry! It has to be a setup, well, let's hope it is.
I like the "patina" on the car though.

Once he breaks it then it can get restored.

The fashion police should have booked this guy in the first 20 seconds. What a waste of time to even watch this.

I agree with Synchro, don't know if I should laugh or cry, that must be his daughter, I'm guessing it's real and she posted it.

I'm suprised it didn't overheat I think he had the spark retarded the whole ride. Must have a good battery though he needs a few lessons on how to properly operate a model a. Looks like he was having fun. I feel sorry for the car though.

Someone look this guy up and go take that poor car from him!

Wide open throttle on a cold start is always a good idea...

I actually watched it and it is not a good example of much of anything.
It did Put a Big Smile on their Faces once e they got it rolling though.

Why wold you even care? There are important things in life without concentrating on the dumb people. This post is a waste of Forbarn space. Wayne

With all the how to videos on you tube, why didn't he watch one and pay attention. I feel sorry for the vehicle....

That was just painful to watch... I gave up about half way through.

Good battery, good starter, good daughter...

He's the out of control experiment. I'm surprised he could find his way back out of the parking lot.

I hope this was a put on, because if not, this country is in real trouble.

Hope this thread is not getting political!:eek:
I also feel for the car. If it has to be taken off him, I'll give it a real good home.:D

Good stuff. I was watching some videos last night and came across that one and again like a few of you thought it was a joke at first but five seconds later I realized it was not and he has no business trying to drive a car like that. Too much throttle, not enough joke, and way too much timing. Plus if you other mistakes he made along the way… But yes it put a smile on both their faces it mediately when the car started rolling as I'm sure all you guys that have owned these cars for 30+ years still do every time the engine fires to life.

let it go, there are important things to think about rather than this triviall
Matter. What is he hurting other than making a fool out of himself and possibly those he has fooled on this site. Wayne

Pretty obvious that if he has skills like that, he does not have the mechanical ability to adjust the points, adjust the carb, and change out those fouled spark plugs. :eek: But he does have a happy daughter. ;)
