MCM Ohana

MCM Ohana (6/6)

  1. I have two sets of head lights,&/side markers.And two sets of tail lights.Two are tinted,and two are regular lights.I switched the headlights back to stock since i couldn’t see too well at night😵‍💫.But the tinted ones do look pretty cool,especially on a black car.
  2. Long Island Cars car club has been holding shows at a facility called Flowerfield,for as long as I remember.Its sort of half commercial,small shops,(auto restoration shops,,etc),& a sort of wild life preserve..Its several acres of open fields,surrounded by woods.Probably make a great golf course.There's rumors that a lot of WW2,and Coldwar experiments went on here back in the day.And that there are possibly underground tunnels throughout the grounds.Anyway,whatever,who cares.There were some really nice rides.Next show is in a few weeks.Enjoy
  3. Yea,I have carpeting too,and I’m sure it’s much easier to clean with rubber mats/floor covering.I do have cruise control,but i don’t think I’ve ever used it.The CVs are great cars.Built Ford tough,as they say.🚨😁I picked up this white 1/18th scale CV yesterday at a car show/swap meet,for $5.
  4. This Nova and Mustang were insane.I overheard someone say that the Mustang had over 1,500 hp,running 8s,but who knows.🤷‍♂️
  5. Cool,not sure if you knew,but LI Cars is holding their Flowerfield car show,in St James today.Im out the door now,slept a little late,but what else is new🤷‍♂️?Hope to take a bunch of pics.Should be really crowded.
  6. Yea,it can get real hot down there.What year Mustang do you have,or do you have a picture?Maybe if I happen to see ya,I’ll come over to say hi.
  7. I like the CV.I have an 09 ex Fed P71.Gotta be one of the funnest cars I’ve ever owned.
  8. Yup,no problem.I did get a quick chance to ask him for the hell of it,if it was for sale.He just looked at me,smiled,rolled his eyes,and drove away..Arrrggg.
  9. Sorry I didn’t mean to take attention away from your Cutlass.Very nice car.I know a guy with one.Hes had it since he bought it brand new in his senior year of HS.The car has really low miles,and is pretty much showroom condition.And he has done a lot of work to his motor.
  10. Just this other one.Yea,that thing was so nice.The guy had to leave in a hurry.Otherwise I would’ve taken more pics.
  11. First night was this past Tuesday.And it was packed.Its a weekly cruise night that begins this past week,through late Oct.Put on by Long Island Needs a Dragstrip.All volunteers at a church that just happens to have the perfect parking lot for a show.And they actually were able to bring drag racing back to LI.Its an 1/8th mile,track on a concrete runway,There’s no traction,but it’s still drag racing..Once the summer hits,there’s weeks where about a 1000 or so cars come down to the cruise night.Father Henry allows the show to go on,as long as there’s no street racing,burnouts,drugs,alcohol,etc.Hey it’s a church.
  12. You wanna have fun,pick up a used police car.Theres tons of different ones,some were junk,but most were simply great all around cars.I have an 09 ExFed black Crown Vic.Its in really good shape,and not butchered like some.I threw on a cold air KnN,filter,lower pulleys,and a Flowmaster cat back system.Its a 4.6.Like I said,nothing crazy,just get it out on the highway,and goodbye.I think there’s a company,ADTR,they make a bunch of Panther platform framed cars, (Crown Vic’s,Marauders,Town,Cars,etc)performance parts.
  13. I love seeing 70s,80s,90’s cars driving around.Two,four door,station wagons,and vans,doesn’t matter.I’m actually looking to possibly pick up some local guy’s car.Its a 70 Mercury Cyclone,with a numbers matching 351 Cleveland.Very similar to this one.
