  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. I was thinking about that too.A death bed confession..No,it would’ve been televised.?Hey maybe he left it in his will,bla bla…I also read he was like $115 million in the red.Too bad,now his kids won’t be getting half the money they thought they were going to be getting.Alrighty then.
  4. Thank you Bob..I’ve Gotta say,it would be great if they had a couple of shows a year.But I know it must take a lot of hard work to put together a show.I have never been to the NNL East.Maybe I’ll try to attend.You got any extra room in your car??
  5. A mixture of diecasts,from Lowes,CVS,Home Depot,and Hobby Lobby.
  6. .Yes sir,you are correct,and of course all police depts have there own chase policies.?It was just ridiculous how the thousands of people came out on the street during the rather slow and boring police chase.But how often do you see a celebrity,accused of a double murder running from the cops?Oh wait it’s LA,the car chase capital of the world. ?
  7. Some very nice pieces.I always loved Tonka,Oops,sorry,edit,i wrote Tonya).?trucks since I’m a kid.
  8. Caught this Poncho at a cruise night last week.
  9. Yup I’ve got a friend of mine who has been building the same Laguna S-3 replica for about 15 years or so.Hes gone through a half a dozen or so motors..And for the last three years,it sits rotting away under a torn cover,w/o a motor.
  10. He sure played great football though,whatever anybody thinks about him.
  11. You know I never really knew why the LAPD actually followed the Bronco.I mean,ok,he was a possible murder suspect.But the whole entire thing was just a big embarrassing moment for the whole city of LA..It was a circus,you know sort of like his entire televised trial.??
  12. Yea I’ve dropped in on a couple of meetings,and an auction once.Great club,great bunch of guys.I know a couple of members.Too busy taken care of my old man right now.I missed like 1/2 this years LIARS show.Then recently i missed the whole “Replicon”show,cause I overslept.And speaking of the shows at the Radisson,I remember I had an unmarked blue (Lindberg) Ford Crown Vic police car..SAE just happen to be at the show,cause I remember they would cover the show on a regular basis,way back in the day.Anyway,I came back to the table,there was a photo card next to my kit.Long story short,SAE took a photo,and it was in an issue.I think it was around 94 sometime.I still have the issue somewhere.Only time I had a model in some magazine,or win anything.
  13. Nice,and fast Caddy.
  14. ??Yup,so long Orenthal..Anybody need a white Bronco??
  15. Yea sorry Tony,I wasn’t even going to bother posting it,but I figured what the hell.
  16. As a fellow Long Islander I have to say that the LIARS club always puts on a great show,with zero complaints.Well maybe it could be a little closer to my house in Smithtown,say Commack.?..Anyway,the rec center gymnasium is the perfect place for their show.Its weird,I have been attending their fall show for years,and I remember for a couple of years the show was held at,what I believe was the Raddison Inn on the LIE in Happauge,(which is now Jakes 57/hotel,and video casino.It was upstairs in one of their banquet halls.It was ridiculous,i felt like i was at a wedding instead of a model contest,and the lighting really sucked.There were some other “catering” halls scattered around LI through the years,before the show finally landed at the Freeport center.
  17. Welp,76 year old,OJ Simpson,The Juice,has died from his on going battle with cancer.?‍♂️Whatever.?
  18. I recently saw The newer version of (The Last House on the Left).Great,suspensfull,& violent movie.Pretty sick ending..I Also recently saw Trainspotting 1,&2.I thought the second one was better than the first.Its literally 20 years later.I thought both TS 1,& TS 2 were hilarious films,with a great sound track..Check it out…Sorry,i have to ask,but is this post for “new” movies,or any movie,new or old.Cause I have not been to the movies in like over 5 years.Wow.Theres no theaters really near me.?.And no clue what the last movie I saw was.
  19. Idk,here on LI NY,,kinda sucked,clouds rolled in at the last second.But I was my really in the line of ,whatever you call it,sorry.It was nothing really at all.Oh well.I seriously don’t think i’ll be around for the next one in about 20 years.?‍♂️
  20. Well I gotta say,from my point of view here on LI,it sucked.Clouds rolled in,never really got any darker..And yea that cereal box were my glasses..Only thing i could make it under 10 seconds.Idk,I was hoping for a better view,oh well.?
  21. ..Not to be annoying.Ok,so by now we all know we are having a partial,or nearly full solar eclipse tomorrow ??Yea,thrilling.?So of course by now,every store is completely sold out on those stupid glasses.Its impossible because every store with in a 40 mile radius,are out of them,or never got them..Thats fine,I understand,whatever.But my four year old is tossing a fit cause he can’t look at the sun.Sorry,it was a busy week.So,what I’am asking and I googled it,but I’m asking..How can you make glasses with stuff around the house.PM me if you want,not to drag this out too long.Then the moderators can go ahead and delete the post.Ok,thanks all.”
  22. Amazing job,wow.??
  23. Great job so far,love the wall art.
  24. My nephew,who attends Syracuse university,said he felt it too.Idk,but there are some decent size faults that run across NJ,that stretch well into NYS.
  25. Yup,we felt two very mild aftershocks later in the day..I did hear some reports that there were some broken glass on some high rise buildings.Again,I just hope there were no serious injuries,major damage,or anymore scared cats.?,lol..
