Help!

Imagine Lucy in 1967. Obviously a 1977 Datsun doesn’t exist yet. What does Lucy drive instead?

A- 1959 Datsun Sports 1000 roadster (the earlier model of Lucy’s ‘77 Datsun) (both pictures are of the same model)

B- 1950 VW Beetle

C- 1957 Toyota Toyopet

D-1951 Studebaker Champion Starlight Coupe

E- 1950s Nash Rambler

I can’t decide if having an older, more beat up and unsafer car is more important, or having an import, or a style.

What a difference 54 years makes juxtaposition of Nissan Sunny 1000 DX, 1966 and Nissan Versa, 2020. The B10 series was sold internationally as the first generation Datsun 1000, Nissan’s sub-compact saloon that was to evolve through multiple (the exact number depends on which market) generations into the Versa for the US market in 2006. The third generation Versa has been revealed at the Rock the Ocean's Tortuga Music Festival

Car eras for people who don’t know anything about cars

Nowadays, most cars look the same. Albeit more electronics choking out the mechanicals, making them harder to work on, a small facelift, but most of the lines stay the same because of “aerodynamics”. These are car eras for dummies, I will go a little in depth on the 90′s, 80′s, 70′s, and even the 60′s.

(these have my opinions in them)

The 90′s

Toyota Corolla

Nissan Sentra

These particular examples are from the 90s. The similarities are there, as this was around the time electronics started to dominate the car scene. A/C came stock, radios, even electric seatbelts, which went out of style quickly. If we were to compare with their 80′s counterparts, they were more boxy, and sharp. 90′s was the era of “bubble” cars. But, the looks didn’t really matter, because most people bought their cars from the companies that they had luck with before. For an example, My step-dad has owned 4 Nissan Sentras throughout the years. One from 1988, 1989, 1992, and 1993. I happened to get the one from 92, and I can see why he bought so many. Not here to talk about my love for old Sentras. Anyway.

The 80′s

Nissan Sentra (1984)

Toyota Corolla (1984)

No, I didn’t post the same car twice. This was originally going to be about car conforming over the years, and I feel now is a good time to address it. As I said in the last paragraph, people didn’t care much about looks but more so about loyalty to a specific company. Kinda like how you would buy an Android phone because it didn’t blow up on you, and you’re not willing to buy an Apple because you don’t know if it’ll blow up because you’ve never had one before. Company loyalty. Anyways, the 80′s was a time for rad music, and rad cars. Boxy cars with sharp angles, and... optional door panels. That’s right, door panels and A/C were optional. Everything was optional, really. Which made them really. Really. Cheap. Also you could tune the hell out of 80′s cars. So the next time you see grandma’s Volvo at the dragstrip, you know it’s taking people to Gapplebee’s.

(also as an example for how optional was optional, A/C, Door panels, radios, even seatbelts, were optional. Because safety is overrated.)

The 70′s

Oldsmobile 442

Ford Torino

Ah, the 70′s. Woodstock, Vinyl, long hair, and most importantly, badass cars. No government interference, no seatbelts, no A/C, maybe even a small AM radio. That didn’t matter, because it was all about power. Street racing, bald tires and loud sirens. I must admit, this is, in my (not so humble) opinion, the best era of cars. What’s better than 300 screaming bald eagles under the hood? 500! 1000! the possibilities were endless, because racing and music were all people really cared about. They even had badass names, like the Plymouth Roadrunner, Dodge Challenger and Charger, Mercury Cougar, Ford Torino and Mustang, Chevy Stingray Corvette, Oldsmobile 442 and Cutlass (from the four barrel carburetor, 4-speed manual transmission, and dual exhaust), AMC Javelin, Pontiac Firebird---and I’m going off the rails. I won’t forget the foreign cars, like Datsun’s Fairlady Z, which was just gaining traction in America. Datsun later became Nissan. I also recommend looking up 70′s concept cars, you know they were doing some...you know what. Cocaine. Now that I think about it, concept cars look pretty sucky now...Coincidence? Ahem.

The 60′s

Ford Galaxie

Chevy Impala

Here we see car conforming again. Now that I think about it more, it’s mostly trends. The different ways people interpret the future throughout the years, reflect on the vehicles as well. Just look at the UFO sightings throughout the years and you will see what I mean. The 60′s happened to be the year of huge tailfins, and huge cars. Almost long enough to be limos. I can almost feel the sunshine coming off the Impala, which yanks me back to having a picnic in a cheesy checkered dress pouring lemonade for my kids with ideal childhoods with daddy at work owning a supply company and being very wealthy to own a long boat of a car, with no power steering. (No power steering led to the huge steering wheels, because leverage.) Maybe after the picnic you would put on a bathing suit and go play in the ocean, while you sat with your neighbors gossiping. The fact that just looking at a car from the 60′s gives me vivid details like that is concerning. There are also notable muscle cars from this era, like the Dodge Charger, Chevy Camaro, Ford Mustang, and Pontiac GTO. I won’t go off on a rant about muscle cars this time. You are safe, for now.

Still here? Good! Thanks for reading.

I might do another installation on my opinions and knowledge on cars. Maybe even on specific cars, or even car parts, like the optional Shaker Hood for the Dodge Challenger.

Renault 15 TS, um ilustre Coupé (quase) desconhecido

Com Bino Sampaio

Quantos de nós já viram ao vivo um Renault 15? Ou melhor, conhece, com algum detalhe, este Coupé? O Bino Sampaio, proprietário de um dos raros Renault 15 TS em Portugal, está mais do que habituado à curiosidade que este gera e às perguntas sobre a sua origem, idade e detalhes técnicos.

Quando, em 1966, a Renault começou a trabalhar no projeto que daria origem ao conhecido 12, a marca pretendia que este tivesse uma gama mais abrangente que incluísse, entre outras, uma variante Coupé. Assim, em 1971, foram apresentados os Renault 15 e 17 (177 em Itália), sendo que as diferenças entre ambos se resumiam à oferta de motores e a algumas alterações de ordem estética, nomeadamente nos faróis dianteiros (idênticos aos do Renault 12 no 15 e duplos no 17) e nos farolins traseiros. Além disso, o 17 estava disponível numa variante que faria lembrar os chamados Targa, com um teto parcialmente amovível que até podia receber comando elétrico.

O Renault 17, que se assumia como o mais imponente e elitista dos dois, contava, na fase de lançamento, com os motores 1.6 de 90 cv (17 TL) e com este mesmo motor, mas de injeção, com 108 cv e caixa de cinco velocidades.

Já o 15, oferecia um mais económico motor 1.3, de 60 cv, acoplado a uma caixa manual de quatro velocidades (versão TL, que acabou por ser a mais vendida da gama), o mesmo 1.6 de 90 cv do 17 (versão 15 TS) e uma versão com caixa de velocidades automática

O Renault 15 de Bino Sampaio pertence à variante mais potente das disponíveis (TS), sendo, até por isso, ainda mais raro. E a história desta ligação do fã da Renault de Guimarães com o curioso Coupé baseado no familiar 12 começa como tantas outras, com um veículo tapado com um lençol numa garagem de um amigo e a curiosidade de saber o que se escondia sob o pano.

“O Renault 15 sempre foi um daqueles automóveis que me fascinou e que só via de tempos a tempos, quando os emigrantes regressavam à terra no mês de agosto. Há uns quatro ou cinco anos, na garagem de um amigo, vi um automóvel tapado com um pano e, motivado pela curiosidade, resolvi destapar para ver o que era. Para meu grande espanto era um Renault 15 TS, o mesmo automóvel que me fascinava em pequeno”.

A balançar entre a surpresa e o fascínio, o Bino Sampaio decidiu que aquele automóvel seria dele. Mas algumas hesitações e contratempos levaram o Bino a “perder” o negócio, facto que o levou a andar dois anos a lamentar o sucedido. “Deixei fugir o R15 e este andou dois anos longe da vista, mas não do coração. Felizmente, as minhas preces foram ouvidas e, passados uns tempos, o amigo que o tinha vendido voltou a ficar com o Renault 15 TS e ligou-me. Dessa vez não o deixei fugir e avancei logo para o negócio”.

O Bino Sampaio já tem o tão almejado R15 há dois anos e, como confessa, na semana em que o adquiriu, o difícil mesmo era arrancá-lo do volante, tal era o desejo de o conduzir. “Na primeira semana fiz logo 300 km e fui ao Caramulo fazer a Rampa dos Históricos”.

Aliás, a participação neste evento ficou logo marcada por uma história curiosa, como nos conta o Bino, “quando estava na linha de partida pronto para arrancar, o “speaker” de serviço identificou o meu Renault 15 TS como sendo um... Datsun! Mas até é compreensível, é preciso ver que pouca gente conhecia este modelo em Portugal, o que também justifica os olhares de surpresa que este motivou (e motiva) e as perguntas que me fazem sempre que o levo  a qualquer lado. É um carro raro em Portugal e mesmo em França não há assim tantos como isso”.

Apesar das origens familiares e prosaicas deste Coupé, a verdade é que a imagem da boa dinâmica dos Renault já vem de longe e é o próprio bino que o comprova: “com este motor 1.6 de carburador de duplo corpo e 90 cv, o R15 TS é muito engraçado de conduzir e divertido. O baixo peso do conjunto (pouco mais de 1000 kg) permite prestações muito razoáveis e o comportamento também é muito bom”.

Ainda para mais porque esta unidade em particular está muito cuidada e em excelente estado de conservação. ���Já fiz vários eventos com este Renault 15 TS e até já ganhei prémios em alguns deles. É um automóvel que me dá um grande prazer conduzir e muita alegria quando saio com ele à rua”.

Até porque, apesar do formato tipicamente coupé, a configuração 2+2, com um banco traseiro relativamente confortável, permite ser utilizado pela família ou com um pequeno grupo de amigos.
