Project Cars
The editorial focuses on a wide variety of staff-owned cars, usually with a very hands-on, do-it-yourself point of view. Recent GRM project cars have included a Mazda MX-5 autocrosser, a MINI Cooper S race car, a Saab 99 rally car, a Volkswagen Golf track car and a LeGrand autocrosser. One of the most famous project cars in the magazine's history is the Ro-Spit, a 200-plus-horsepower, rotary-powered Triumph Spitfire.

Famous quotes containing the words project and/or cars:
“Indigenous to Minnesota, and almost completely ignored by its people, are the stark, unornamented, functional clusters of concrete—Minnesota’s grain elevators. These may be said to express unconsciously all the principles of modernism, being built for use only, with little regard for the tenets of esthetic design.”
—Federal Writers’ Project Of The Wor, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
“When, at rare intervals, some thought visits one, as perchance he is walking on a railroad, then, indeed, the cars go by without his hearing them. But soon, by some inexorable law, our life goes by and the cars return.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
