A Horse With No Name

...and since I am a dumbass when it comes to computers, could you add that to my sig line...please? WOW! I am in awe... Chris

I'm in lust! But it creates a moral dilema, because after looking at THAT I no longer want a GM car. Maybe I should start posting at allpar? THANKS DF! Chris

PM SENT! Cha Cha CHA CHARGER for the Chrisman! Chris

I think it is quite funny, and I am laughing at it...but you've got to admit, in this thread we do sound like the Scion guys... Chris

I'm going to go shoot a deer this fall in honor of Peta. Chris

That's because bacteria is smarter than the average American voter, Democrat or Republican. And I'm not kidding, dammit! Chris

Amazing...I came here because of the level of maturity, and now C and G trails the Scion forums in the level of maturity of posts. Glad ya'll are blowing off and having fun, but... \ Chris

An oragne 71 Cutlass that looked good, and a new Impala SS in black sitting on a dealer lot in Circleville. Chris

Really for small cars the Fit is the head of the class, and nothing else in the Sub-sub compact field seems to matter. Ford might have a few things to say about that in a few months though. Chris

+1 Chris

For me, it's easy...Mitsubishi Lancer. Ugly as sin. Pick just one car for this thread please.... Chris

Glad to hear you have a barn full! Chris

What were the actual structural differences between the Camaro and the 67-68 Firebird? I do beleive that the Firebird didn't use the same monoleaf rear spring that the Camaro did, although I don't know this for sure. And didn't the motor sit slightly further back in the Pontiac? Seems like I read something about the Pontiac having some form of different chasis bracing as well, although its been so long since I read about this I really can't remember. Chris

That car just has "the look" I swear, between this and the 58-62 Corvette ragtop (yes, I know they were all "convertibles" during that era) I'm not sure which is my all time #1 GM car. It's close. But man...with those stripes along the side... Those stripes (like the red car above) were available with the 350 also, right? Or no? What about with the 326? Chris

Also saw a nice black C4 Corvette at the local carwash when I went to pick up my son from boy scouts. Chris

Camaro looks much better going down the road than sitting in a dealer showroom, doesn't it? Chris

THANKS! Chris

Cool thing about the 73 is that of the GTO's it is probably the best "road car" for a trip and probably the best riding GTO built. Very under rated, and very sad more were not saved. Chris

Probably more as a hobby car than a daily driver. I like the HHR SS and the Cobalt SS. we'll see what's out next year when I buy my next car. If they only have a bland version of the Cruze and I can have a new Euro Focus (SVT version perhaps?) a MINI, a GTI, a TDI, something from Alfa, etc....then perhaps no. Waiting to see what's available next year. Chris

The Toyo car got cancelled, btw. Chris

The blue color is the best color for that car...good to hear yours is getting some love. I've passed a lot of them on the road...it is just sooo stupid that GM is getting rid of this thing... Chris

I hear you. I just came back from the pool, took my 13 year old daughter, my 11 year old son, my 8 year old daughter, and Sienna, their 12 year old friend. Pooltime can be addicting. Chris

You would have loved that GTO. 74 was a very low production year...that was the year it was built on a (Ventura?) bodystyle and looked like a Nova. The Solstice GXP coupe makes the 370Z look like a Kia minivan by comparo. Chris

Say...balthazar...I have a 60's Pontiac question that I have never been able to get a legit answer on from anyone. Maybe you can help or you can point me in the right direction. I heard that Pontiac built a few 1969 Trans Am models as Canadian cars with the Chevy 302 from the Z-28 so that the Trans Am could race in the SCCA Trans Am series. I know 'Bird's raced in the series back in the day, and I believe they ran 302's that were identical to the 'maro 302's. I think also in 1970 they ran the LT-1 motors just like the Camaro's as the SCCA raised the C.I.D. limit to 355 or something. But after reading about and hearing about 302 powered 69 firebirds/Trans Ams, I have never seen one or read about one that survives. According to one seemingly knowledgeable Pontiac collector I talked to a couple dozen street going versions of the 302 TA were actually sold to the public in Canada. Any ideas? Is this whole thing just an urban legend? Chris

I certainly hope so...I'll be in the market for a new car next year and both of those SS models are on my shopping list. Chris
