Of all the different operating modes you can use with a car engine, idling is the worst except for long term Wide Open Throttle operation. I wholeheartedly agree with the article you posted. You don't need to worry about wear & tear on the starter from frequent re-starts with the modern automobile. Cars today start running as soon as one cylinder is cranked over top dead center on the compression stroke, which is to say almost instantly.
One of the most detrimental things one can do to an engine in cold climates is to crank it up and let it idle to warm up. Fat chance cylinder walls will be oiled properly with cold heavy oil like that. Idling is the very slowest way to warm up a car in cold weather. I could go on and on about that but will leave it alone at this point to keep it short.
Absolutely a great capture.
Great set of beauties. Nice to see these old cars still exist and are loved by many.
