In celebration of it being paid off next month (thank you, 0%/60mo!), here's on of the first pics I took of the girl back in 2000.

I don't believe I have ever posted any pics of the Blazer and I know I haven't posted any of my dad's "new" Silverado work truck... So... why not since it's nice out today, right?

After remarking to me several times that she wanted a more sporty 4door compact car.. and was considering trading in her Equinox (Below) for a Cruze or Sonic (no shit), my 17 year old wanted to make a move. We started discussing logistics. College is coming up... and a few weeks ago my she was accepted and received several academic scholarship offers from various well known colleges both in and outside of MD. She pointed out to me that she still loved the previous Cruze because it was more bold.. and if she were to get a new one.. it would be a hatch. We test drove both.. used and new Cruzes, no Sonics.. because i deemed it too small. In the end she saved dad a bunch of m…

Well, GM finally made me a happy guy :D About two weeks ago I get a call from one of many salespeople I've left my # with to call me once a new GMAC Pull-Ahead program arrived that included me (the '03 Buick Rendezvous lease was scheduled to end in January of 2006). Needless to say I didn't waste any time deciding if I wanted to get rid of the Rendezvous or not (we were extremely close to our total allowed mileage, so it really was a no brainer ;) ). After looking at several new "family" vehicles (see my other thread in the Lounge on the new addition to the family), we went with a 2005 GMC Envoy. It is a 4wd SLT model in Monterey Maroon Metallic with the two-toned…

Name: Infiniti G37x Coupe (2013) Date Added: 30 August 2013 - 08:51 PM Owner: PONTIAC06 Short Description: After a month without my Altima, and Bessie the Jeep doing daily driver duty, I picked this up as my new commuter car. A little disappointed I couldn't find one with the manual sport package nearby, but she's pretty awesome and can haul some ass! View Vehicle

So the lease for our sebring is up in less than 6 months...heres a crop of pictures of it from today...still looking new after almost 3 years..

My dad felt it was not right to spend the extra money for a 77 Cutlass Supreme coupe...so i had to settle for a Century coupe...not even a Regal! Dug up an old pic. RWD! real car! LOL less than 100hp! I miss this car, even though I would have preferred a Cutlass. I even had mounted an under dash CD player in this thing. One of the first mobile CD players there was, from radio shack. Self applied pin stripe from probably K Mart! is that a SWEEPSPEAR i see?

Well, i thought i'd "showoff" a bit in the Meber's Showoff Section, so here's pics of my 2005 Cobalt SS Supercharged Sorry if the pics are large...But enjoy!

Finally got around to dropping the fuel tank in my dad's old Dodge. Per Murphey's law, it was chock full of gas and took forever to drain, but the job is done and the tank out. Along the way I discovered what was causing the car to stall and not restart. Although we suspected that crud in the tank ws causing the problem, the actual cause was a bit of a surprise. Yes, there was a fair amount of sediment in the gas - but the real problem became obvious as I poured the last of the fuel from the tank. An approximately 2"inch square chunk of an old leaf flowed out of the filler neck as I tipped it up! That'll stop the fuel delivery in a hurry. So next will be having the tank…

I finally got my new truck after some time of waiting, I absolutley love this rig. I bucked the advice of many forumers and my father and bought a 6.0L. I'll have a review on it later but here are some pics for now:

PROJECT ACHIEVA It is coming up on 3 months since I bought my 1995 Oldsmobile Achieva S. Here is an update on some of the things I have done in that time. First up, was a complete cleanup of the engine bay. Here is what it looked like on June 4th (2 days after I got it): And here it is August 15th (with new alternator and battery): I spent a few hours every morning cleaning by hand. A labour of love...and not quite finished yet. The hood was the hardest part (in terms of bending to get to all the small spots) I also added some blue LED bulbs for the footwell lights. They add a nice touch complementing the cars colour. I hope to get better ones t…

Two Gay Indians, One Big Fight And I End up with a little Red Riding Hood!!! The little Red Riding Hood! As many of you know I posed a question about which car to choose from the two wholly different animals – 2009 Chevy Cobalt New and 2005 BMW 330i Used, I promised to follow up with the results. Although, I asked the question two months too late, the answers you gave me did not make me feel regretful for having made the decision. The Precursor: I met J and M back in Bombay while finishing my undergraduate school (there you go P-C-S, you now know my origin). They were one of the fewest homosexual couples in India who were open about their …

So I took a ride up to New Hampshire on Friday morning and this little guy followed me home: About three weeks ago or so now, on the way back from a junkyard with SpeedingPenguin, I spotted this thing sitting up at the road in front of a local garage. Being a fan of big tanks in general, and the Cadillacs of 1971 in particular (I love those separated quads; they make the car look ten feet wide!), I of course made it a point to stop and look at it, and I'm glad I did. The car has just about 103K on it, but was taken care of very well; the body has no rot really anywhere save for a tiny amount on the bottom of the rear quarters, and the black interior is perfect, save fo…

As you guys know, I purchased my red '98 Tahoe 2-door Z71 to replace the ROPOS plow truck and my green '95 Tahoe 2-door. Green isn't on the market yet, but the ROPOS is gone so I am starting to optimize Mr. Red. Just doing damage control mostly at this point since all sorts of little problems have cropped-up since the purchase. But, there are other plans in the works. Today I replaced the auto 4WD dash switch (known for going bad) which quit on me after plowing here for the first time the other day. I also ordered a new window/door lock switch to replace the current one which fails intermittently (and locked me out of the vehicle capping a really bad day not long afte…

Ah, those luscious locks of the American redneck just sprouted from my scalp like never before! I have just purchased the poster child for all things 'Murica, the Pontiac Firebird. It will gradually replace the Avalon as I look to sell that car. But you're probably not interested in that. The details: 1998, 3800 V6, 5-speed, T-Tops, and just under 124k. No rust, a few scratches here and there, a small dent from the previous owner's kid, and originally a whole lot of muck. After a full detail, it shines up fairly well and looks fairly good for its age.

Well the poor old Shadow is basically at the end of its life. The body rot is pretty horrendous and its having issues overheating, along with lots of other issues that have crept up lately. So with that he decided it was time for a new car. He had been looking for a second gen Grand Cherokee but in the end settled with something quite different: a 1999 Toyota Camry V6 for $4,500. I think he did quite well. It's got just over 100,000 miles. Body is in great shape. No rust at all. Interior is very clean and in good shape except for a few small things (missing radio button). The V6 is very smooth and might as well be brand new by the way it sounds. Very peppy too. The tran…

My '95 and '98 two-door Tahoes:

I've had it for about 2 years now and I'm about 150 miles from 170,000 miles. What I've needed to replace so far: *Front brake pads *Master cylinder *Battery *Tensioner pulley What I've replaced for good measure: *Brake line hoses *Spark plugs *Spark plug wire set *Air filter *Fuel filter *Tires *All fluids I know I've replaced more things than this for good measure Ok so now on to the good stuff. Dropped the transmission oil pan and filter this morning: After that I was too damn oily to use the camera any more After I cleaned up I took a picture of the mess I made from changing the transmission fluid. Still need to…

Here's the HHR. It was bought in December

Hey guys. I picked up a new car on Saturday. Now, some of you may know me well enough to guess what kind of car I'd buy, but I'm counting on it that most of you would have no clue. It'll keep you guys guessing while I wait for an opportune moment to take pics. All I'll tell you is that I stuck to my budget of less than $25,000. I'll post pics on Saturday or Sunday, shortly after I take them.

The 0 for 72 put the MAXX SS over the top for me and I broke down and bought it. I probably won't get it until Saturday. I'll post pics then. Hi-per tires XM 6-Disc On-Star Sunroof The REALLY sad part is that I will have to sell my 1996 Camaro Z28 Convertible. But my wife's lease on the G6 will be out in time for a new Z28...

BENTLEY Jaguar XKE (red leather interior) 1931 Model A Ford He had the Ford in high school and up until a few years ago. I always loved riding in the rumble seat, but it was prone to breakdowns. It has a feature installed that took advantage of the air intake system and by manipulating a little knob or lever, he could make it do a wolf whistle, or the regular kind (backwards wolf whistle). The Jag he had when he was in his mid 20s. He is a painter and traded one of his abstracts for that car. He was very popular with the ladies, or so he says, but with that car I believe it. The Bently I think he bought for about $15k, which even in the 70s was really cheap. It had …

...remember this car? Dad bought it back in '03, I think. I drove it first for my senior year of high school. Dad used it as a spare. Then my brother used it until he bought a Regal. In the meantime, it's remained a spare. 1993 Fleetwood Brougham, Cotillion White with Garnet Red interior. Factory white vinyl top. Has about 110k now. They rarely use or drive it, just takes up space. Still looks great but with age needs some stuff. The rear air ride shocks went out many years back. It sits fine with just a slight rear end drop but doesn't like to be loaded up. Runs strong with the TBI 350 and 4-speed. A/C needs recharged and figure out where the old refrigerant leaks …

So tonight after work I roped Sixty8 and his lovely new bride into taking a ride down to Warwick, Rhode Island (170-mile round trip) to pick up the latest addition to the fleet: a 1978 Cadillac Coupe DeVille with 94,000 miles and change on it. It's very clean for its age, everything works (except for the AC compressor, which is seized, which means I need a shorter belt if I want power steering!), colors are brown with a brown top and brown interior, and has very stylish late 80's Chevrolet truck wheels on it. Purchased for the paltry sum of $420, I plan to swap out the better parts (most notably the headliner board and the center section of the front bumper) with lesser q…

Well I just picked it up, and all I can say is OOOOOOO MY GOD!! Now I know what I have been missing all my life, a LS1!! I couldn't keep it on the streets for too long, because it doesn't have a plate or insurance, but this thing is awesome. The exhaust sounds better then I could have imagined. I didn't even use the radio, the sweet exhaust note kept me wanting more. Sooooo, without further delays, the pics...... http://s38.photobucket.com/albums/e145/schuby87/

Well, I finally traded off my 01 suburban yesterday. It had 187,245 miles on it when I dropped her off at the dealer. I put most of the miles on. My dad put on the first 30000 before I got it. What a great vehicle. That many miles and nothing but a new fuel pump, tires, and oil changes. (oh and a brief problem with the onstar, but it was warrantied) I traded up to a used 03 loaded with everything but DVD with about 80000 miles on it. I got a decent deal on it and I know the guy who owned it before me and he always takes great care of his vehicles. Its not my favorite color, pewter, but whatev. I'm going to add a few things to it hopefully if a come up with the cas…

I promised XP i would throw up some more pics of our old packard when i got the chance so true to my word here they are. we'll start out with the the car itself. 1955 packard clipper constellation, hardtop, emerald green/moonstone paint. powered by the middle road 352 4bbl had a factory automatic transmission that was later removed due to the lines clogging. Interesting story in itself is that instead of them taking the car to the dealership, the dealership sent some guys out with a manual transmission and dropped the auto out and put the manual in the car in my great aunt and uncles drive way. They purchased this car from the Packard dealership in Atlanta G…

Well, my Bonneville was getting oh so dirty. The cloth seats had crumbs in them (a first for this car) the carpet was dirty and had grass shaving, the car had 5 weeks of dirt on it, the tires weren't shiney, and the exhuast tips had 24 weeks of black dirt build up on them. It was time to clean her, sadly the SLE didn't get waxed only washed and detailed. On Saturday afternoon I washed the car for my son as he went to his last homecoming of his high school career with a cute friend of his. And me being ths softy I am washed it for him and then let him drive it! What was I thinking? Anyways I am sure he got the cobs out of it, prolly not a bad thing, but not that I don'…

I was going through an old Photo Album when I found these pictures... the first is circa February 1997 the day my Cavalier was picked up from Jack Carter Chev Olds Cadillac as a new car... Hard to believe that thing was ever "new". The last two are circa Summer 1997 and are of the Dustbuster minivan we had from 1994-1999 (My brother and I are of course in this one as well).

Picked her up this morning for $600 off two dorky yuppie brothers in Bow, NH. Runs, drives, shifts, and stops. Incredibly solid (have the original Florida title from 1970) except for a little bubbling at the bottoms of the front fenders. Needs cosmetic love, but is mechanically awesome. Goes down the road straight, smooth, and quiet as a Cadillac should. Has a 2 year-old rebuilt transmission with a 50,000 mile warranty that is transferrable to me. It's gonna be me and the girl's backup car/summer beater. I'm glad to have picked it up; I've been having withdrawals since I traded Sixty8 the Banana for my Suburban, but now I once again have a driver!

So a business customers of mine "just so happened to come across" a new Bra for the Solstice. He was thankful that I helped him so, I was rewarded with one of these bad boys. I don't have it installed yet, but I will be once I have to drive up to Saginaw for a court date, then I will take pictures. I dont plan to use it much, just on long trips, etc.

I decided to give the Cutlass a halfassed wash job and take some classic BV pics. Enjoy.

New to the forum thought Id post pics of my car. Garage Found 1980 Olds 442 W-30 1980 Olds 442 W-30 T-Tops More Pics http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2107812 346 made in White and Gold, 540 made in Black and Gold.

Well, I got this back in February (February 2nd, to be exact), I posted this on other sites I visit including my sites, but since I wasn't around here, I didn't post here. So here are some photos along with a video clip I have taken the next day I brought my baby home. The sun's glare made it a bit of a challenge to take a good photo, but at least my Samsung camera did a decent job on them, though not perfect. Yep, that's me right there, I am a fat little Asian dude as you can see in the clip. The features it has are: Sunroof, 6CD Changer with Monsoon 9 Speaker audio, Leather, Heated Seats, Sport Package(Fog lights, Dual Ex…

I cannot explain why I am so drawn to the 78-81 Chevy G-body coupe. I just am. This one weighs 2880 lbs, looks stock, runs 12's with an angry mouse motor and lots of Edelbrock goods.

Avkaloseo? Ok, cut to the chase. My 2004 Chevy Aveo 5 door. This car was essentially salvage. It was not totalled however. The chick who owned it was DUI, and smashed the daylights out of it in a drunken escapade. She was esentially playing chicken with an Escalade and lost big time. The car would have been fixed by insurance, but her claim was obviously denied due to obvious blood alchohol level, so the bupyoung button sat for three years until it could be rescued. After…

I had the opportunity to meet Rivieraranch and have dinner with his family while in South Florida about 3 weeks ago. Rivieraranch posts primarily in the Buick forum. It was a good time and meeting such nice people added to the vacation. His LaCrosse CXL is in the background. It is Cardinal Red Metallic with the neutral leather interior. The fit and finish is quite nice. In the foreground is my rented base level Grand Prix with the white exterior and black cloth interior. It is amazing to think these two cars have the same underpinnings and engine/transmission yet provide such completely different driving experiences. Look at the sawgrass, palm trees and lush vegeta…

Here is my new car. Just bought it Monday and my birthday was Saturday so it made a good birthday present from myself. Paid 3500.00 for it with 99,000 Miles on it. Its a nice car runs really good and has great interior, just needs a paint job. Im gonna body kit it anyway and my dad knows how to paint so in time I'll have it lookin good.

haha there are no pics of girls. Look how cute it looks in this RV space. awwwwww! Well I took it for a two hour drive on the Blue Ridge Parkway. It liked it. But I found out that there's a reason they call it the del Sol...I got a pretty sunburn on my shoulders. It was a pretty cool drive. I stopped at all of the overlooks. At one of them this old guy in a truck was looking at my car and goes "Hey that's a nice ride! What is it?" And that started a huge conversation. Also this old 1920's roadster honked at me. I wish I'd been able to snap a pic of that, because it was so beautiful. I also saw some kind of go-kart thing that I can't explain, but i…

Well, I'm thinking about moving to France for a year or so... in a few years...and I was thinking about what the heck I'm gonna drive when I get over there... And realized that this is my European dream car Suzuki Cappuccino I love it! And when I'm not driving it, I can put it in my purse and carry it around with me Looks a lot like the del Sol don't it?

It's an 05 GTO, Red/black, 13,000 miles, 6 speed manual. Pictures coming soon. This is would also be my 4th Pontiac.

However, in order to get it running smoothly in an "oh $h!" instance, we'd have to spend a few hundred on a new door or two, battery, and radiator at the very least. So, seeing that we haven't started it in a few months, and haven't run it in over a year, we're finally getting rid of it. It will be a donation, and a sad one to see go since I've grown up with that car. Also, the Grand Prix will have seen its days with …

...she's mine. 171k on the clock. Runs really good, but needs the brakes fixed, rear shocks and some tlc.

We just bought a HHR 2LT last night, to be picked up today. I love the 0%, it helped us get MUCH more car for our $$ without devaluing the car via a rebate. Our new HHR is/has; 1. Daytona Blue exterior 2. Medium Cashmere Cloth Seats (wife hates leather) 3. Roof rails 4. Running Boards 5. 5-speed 6. 17 inch high polished wheels 7. Cargo Mat 8. Sunroof 9. 260 watt Pioneer sound system 10. In-dash CD changer 11. more At 39,000 miles our little Cobalt has served us well in the past year, it was just too small and I wanted something with "luxury" options. It's kinda fun to have gotten the exact car on the front of the selling brochure.

No rust ever. All original metal and drivetrain. 145K miles. I love driving this car.

Haha SOMEBODY had to do it. :AH-HA_wink: I'm gonna redo the rear suspension and brakes and toss some slightly bigger tires on the back...

As if anyone didn't know, its a 1996 Oldsmobile Aurora in Silver Teal Metallic... With its Pontiac sister

Just realized I never made a post about this, but a few weeks ago my younger brother bought his first car (and beat me by about 2.5 years at that!). He had wanted a Cutlass/Monte Carlo from the late 80's for a while, and was always looking. Never really found much except for a white '86 Cutlass with the 307 V8 at a local little used car place, and they looked at and drove it, but still weren't sure. Wasn't bad at all, but seemed to have a transmission issue and some other small issues. So they kept looking and he also was considering some late 80's and early 90's Caprices they found in his price range. One Sunday were on their way to head up state a distance to look …

My Dad bought this new in '92 he took realllllllllly good care of it and didn't drive it much. I'm lucky to have it now. yeah its a clean '92
