  1. Sweet deal man, that two tone and wheel set make that thing look bigger then it really is. Almost thought I was looking at a road runner. Great combo!
  2. That's a serious boat man !!! 18 feet of inboard fun is enough for me. Land can come cheap around here, but the taxes can bite you real quick. A good friend of mine owns 20 acres out in the middle of no where's ville. Has been assessed forever at about 4k, last year someone found some yuppy from the coast to pay BIG money for a plot. They just got the county assessment papers last week. 59 THOUSAND DOLLARS !!! Now they get to pay taxes on that assessment because of what it could be worth ...
  3. I just about posted that before I read all they way through both pages lol, nailhead all the way !!! Or if you have an old desoto fire dome laying around...with some kind of multi carb set up
  4. I got one for the first time not very long ago, lots of great stuff in it. I should just get a subscription, only found one place in the state to get it. It's really kinda neat to see stuff in there and recognize the names from people you've read about or talked to on the forum.
  5. Way to go Andy, good man.
  6. A little piggy back here, Americans live by excess. Not very many other country's will buy a $50l Dzl pickup to tow the trailer they bought for camping three times each year and then let it set or put it around the rest of the time. ( now I'm not saying that the rule for all truck owners) but i see a lot of this in my day to day job. Trucks, cars, you name it. Heck, I have a boat in my garage I spent 100 bucks on every month last year and only had it out 4 times.......those were four very expensive weekend if you added it up...I don't like to think about it lol
  7. I'm sure you have Bradley, just saying is all.
  8. He kinda has a point here.... I've noticed more then a few times that Andy will chime in with his opinion, be it relevent or not, or even mature. with the only reason why of being " I just do" But I havent noticed anyone asking why he feels this way. If he has ever thought about something the other way, or how he came to that conclusion. I'm not sticking up for any hot heads or trouble makers, but I read some of this stuff, and think that could be my son, and his opinion. Because thats what hes learned and how he was taught, that how he feels. He is a kid, and I'm sure there are plenty more in here that could use a little more advice and guidence and vs. defensive criticism.. Just a thought anyway.
  9. Did you ever get your hands on a copy of "Gasser wars" ??
  10. Didnt those go away with like, points or something...
  11. Then why try at all ? Change is for quitters , Stick with what your good at
  12. I would love to get my hands on a set of those big inch rallies if you know of a source.
  13. Full tube cage with removed body panels ???
  14. I hear you Joe, I think it got worse after he got sponsored.. But what a machine non the less.
  15. Try laynig the tape down on something smoot and lint free a few times before you lay it on your parts, should help with the aggresiveness of the tape. I use clear drawer liner for making stenciles for airbrushing things. Its pretty sticky, but way cheaper then real frisket, this seems to help it also.
  16. I'm not really into Hybrids either, but I can appreciate the work and technology that goes into them, much like 4x4s are to me as well. BUT...this is something those of you that feel "electric cars" dont have a place on the track should check out. http://www.plasmaboyracing.com/whitezombie.php Hot rodding at its finest..... for the new age that is.
  17. I Like the spokes on the front, maybe some bycicle fenders up front and bobbed ones in the rear?
  18. I was thinking the same thing . How many cudas and g body gms can you judge? I bet the box stock class will draw some really great builds though.
  19. [quote name='martinfan5 The Idol This is the type of poster that everyone sucks up to
  20. I say real, just wish they would have finished it...body wise that is.
  21. looks like a Ford Clevland, not a big block. The way the exhaust ports come off the head, maybe some torino kit ? Boss mustang ?
  22. Not sure skip, but if you buy it...you could strip it and re-pre- build it..
  23. If hes posting from a smart phone, that could verry well be the case...stupid smart phones, alway telling us what we meen !!! But look at all the bonding, and how close this has brought everyone.
