Dude the Blue Renault from France was an R8 Gordini, quite a rare beast. Gordini was a aftermarket engine builder. The R8 gordini was special build for Rallying. the original 1000cc engine was replaced with a high spec 4 cylinder 1400 cc with crossflow hemi head, duel side throat webers, extractors, upgraded Suspension, wheels and brakes. the extra driving lights to the front were also added. Racing seats and extra gauges in the dash. I served as a Renault Mechanic in Australia on a couple of these little beasts.

@Marcus Baca try not to attribute to malice, that which could easily be explained by ignorance. Chad really doesn't mean bad. He just didn't grow up in Europe.

You never fail with new and fresh content. Thanks Chad for taking a gamble on making a video some might not be interested in but I know most of your subs probably really enjoyed this video and the new content lately. Coming from a automotive Technician that was raised building HotRods and Harleys. It never ceases to amaze me where so many of these cool old cars will be found. Derek, VA 🇺🇸

Hi Chad, the Mitsubishi 4x4 (NIKON) was a rally car built in Sonata France, they raced them in the Paris - Dakar and Winns Safari Australia I was fortunate enough to be a driver for the Mitsubishi media team in Australia for about 4 years. The car was a complete Kevlar body and full race specs. Mitsubishi dominated these 2 events for about 5 years.

[@shaynesmith7972]

I like the bloke. To not have any idea of this being Dakar related is being very American.

[@VliegerNL]

Dude, that Mitsubishi Pajero at the show is a Paris-Dakar race truck. The hardest long distance rally in the world. 2 weeks, thousands of miles. A SUPER special truck, built by Sonata. Amazing to see something like that in Thailand! Greetings from Atlanta!

My dad used to be a big VW person in the van that you were talking about it is called a 21 window and they are very rare. My favorite is the Karmin Ghia and the sirocco.

[@truss6282]

The ol' Sirocco. I learned to drive in a manual Sirocco back in the late 80's in the west Texas desert. Not to many people even know what those are and I havn't seen one in 30 years I bet. Cool car!!!!

[@Ken-fj4ji]

Thailand is so cool! Love the cars. Thanks for showing us around town.

[@DasJaegar]

The Mitsubishi Parejo you saw is very rare and it used for desert rally. The fact the vehicle survived is a miracle, often times the desert claims vehicles.

[@maxsdad538]

I remember when the closest thing to speed shops in America (1960's) was The Pep Boys (I can still remember the smell of tires when you entered the stores), or mail order from J.C. Whitney. And it wasn't unusual to order by mail, cams and headers and floor shifters for whatever you were racing at your local "Saturday night" speedway (mine was Saugus Speedway or Ascot).

[@wilstef]

My parents had a yellow Toyota Corolla , before I was born. I only know it from old blurry pictures , cool to see one in that good shape. My grandfather had a Toyota Crown in the '80 s , it was a solid and classy looking car.

[@MB-ib5ji]

I'm from San Diego California we used to have a place called Super Shops and it was like heaven! there is nothing like being able to touch feel and smell all of the aftermarket racing parts in one shop. it was like putting on a hoodie out of the dryer on a cold wet day...

That was a fun video. I've owned a 1959 MGA (1st car) and did a lot of hands on restoration. I've also owned a yellow Toyota Celica identical to the one in the video (bought it new in 1973). I am now retired, but still keep a 2004 Porsche Boxster S just for the fun. It feels like driving a go-cart on the street.

Chad if you think an Issetta is small look up a British Company called Peel who made a tiny car called the P50 on the Isle of man in the 1960's

Back in early 2000's went to Moscow and rescued Lada. Turned the company around, built new plants, hired 1000s of people, worth billions, and last month, sold the Russian operation for 1 Ruble. Lost a billion dollars and will never do business in Russia again. But this video, WOW so much car heritage. That Lincoln Town Car looks prestine. All the cars are in amazing condition.
