The One-Year Garage: 1965

It's time once again for your favorite game—The One-Year Garage! This time we're back for one of the best automotive years imaginable: 1965, by special request of Sue Counselman from Vintage Underground (https://www.vintageunderground.com/) . In addition to the crew's picks for their preferred sports car, family hauler, truck/4x4, daily driver, and wild card, we have Randy's hot take on the second-series GTO; a flippy-floppy driving video in Hawaii; Alex's ideal Eichler-dwelling 1965 self; what constitutes too many windshields; deep pulls from the Brits and Germans; a sobering trivia tidbit from Le Mans; Alfa Romeo naming conventions; Kardex friction, and (of course)...more!
