Oliver’s Travels: 1

Jan 30, 2012

In celebration of the fan page surpassing the 8k milestone (thanks) I’ve decided to debut a new category on the site called ‘Olivers Travels‘.

Who’s Oliver you might ask? Well Oliver (Ollie) is a long time reader and knowledgeable enthusiast who has submitted a few things here and there before.

I am convinced Ollie simply loves anything with a motor and four wheels because week after week he sends me a variety of cars that he finds in places he won’t identify.

This part 1 of Oliver’s Travels is really just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to his submissions and should give you an idea of the variety to expect from these posts.

olivers_travels_1 — Ollie is a bit of a Mini fan.. by a bit I mean quite a Mini fan

olivers_travels_1a — More so fast Minis with Honda motors

olivers_travels_2 — This Volvo was recently featured on Stance | Works but Ollie sent it in ages ago

olivers_travels_3 — Bombs, not always weapons of mass destruction

olivers_travels_5 — This is a 48 International Metro

olivers_travels_6 — Wide body v12 monster of a Cobra

olivers_travels_7 — If Ollie told me the wing keeps this car from going airborne I'd believe him

olivers_travels_8 — Alfa Romeo GTV6 Rendering

olivers_travels_9_Starlet — Oh my stars and garters...

olivers_travels_11 — The Skull Orchard Express

olivers_travels_13 — Gassers... functional Stance OGs?

olivers_travels_12 — Grande lighting them up

Ollie has been a long time reader and contributor for awhile so it only made sense to give him something regular.

Hopefully you like this new addition to the content.

Oh and welcome to the new look of Stance Is Everything.

Those first two photos brought to memory an article I read in Car & Driver. Didn’t realize it was 7 years ago. Here’s the article:

A couple of these cars have been featured in Hot Rod Magazine (The Shelby and the one below the Corvette). The Shelby must be a wild ride! Good job Ollie and Dave!

Running your vehicle’s air conditioning is no worse for your gas mileage than driving with your windows down. As your vehicle speeds up, air flow creates a drag against the vehicle, making the engine work harder and hurting gas mileage. In fact, air conditioning can be a more efficient option at higher speeds.
