  1. Blue color looks good on the Sky. Should be a nice addition. Chris
  2. This is a cool thread...thanks for the pics guys. Sixty-Eight, thanks for the Olds Pic in the O.P.! That's Awesome. Chris
  3. Not just yes but Hell Yes! Chris
  4. It's really going to hurt them for sure, 7 for every truck may not be a bad estimate... Chris
  5. They did destroy a C4 vette though. Stuffed a crash test dummy named "Hank" in it and blew it up from a helicopter. Felt like pointing out to Mr. Clarkson that without a lot of guys named "Hank" he could be reading the owners manual of his new Audi in the German he had learned from boyhood, but so far have not had the chance. Chris
  6. I've loaned cars to H.S. students I've known and not had a problem. Even loaned one I knew was responsible my Miata for two weeks strait. It came back washed, waxed, and full of gas. I can see why you didn't loan the Z, but to me that is why I drive modern cars with insurance. Something happens, State Farm writes a check and all is O.K. Chris
  7. Wrecking aperfectly good 911 was WRONG...butI'd rather they wreck a 911 than a Camaro, even a plain jane 3rd gen Camaro... Other than that great stuff! Chris
  8. 1940 Ford Truck (drool)...Wow! This is really bad no matter how you spin it or slice it, agreed. It has convinced me never to buy another Toyota product, for sure. Chris
  9. ...personally, I just don't mess with rusty cars... Chris
  10. Buy it for the scrap value, for real. You laugh when I talk of the price of scrap, but that's an easy $350 at the local scrap metal yard. It would also be a cool car to take Ice Racing... Chris
  11. I so much more like a clean look with a nice set of rims and clean, well detailed paint and interior. There are Honda's I like, but the sad thing is that of the ricer movement one of the biggest (and cheapest) up grades would be to just wash the damn car, make sure that it's all one color, and clean the Burger King wrappers and coffee cups out of the damned thing. As far as car spotting goes, for me it has been Jeep, Jeep, Jeep. Jeep. Lots of nice late model prev. generation Rubicons and Unlimiteds, I saw 7 (Yes, SEVEN) nice examples of CJ-7's (one looked superb in silver)(Another one was lifted and on 38's). Also, CJ-8 Scrambler, two of them, including a very clean original blue one. To top it all off, my teenaged daughter had to go down to the Ohio/West Virginia Border to meet some friends. Lots more Jeeps here too. Checked out the 4 Door wranger interior on the local Jeep lot. Oh, and saw a couple of old 50's Willy's jeep wagons in an old junkyard. Nothing like being able to pop the top and doors in summer! If gas wasn't $3.49 per gallon for midgrade I'd be having a Jeep in the driveway. Chris

  13. Better that than the Grand Am I saw running around town this week...bright orange paint, wing, body kit, looked like it had been drug up off of the bottom of the North Atlantic condition wise.... Chris
  14. They guy who owns this thing is a Dumbass...SH is the designation for a hi-po Prelude. Although it would take a Qualude to make me buy a Prelude... Chris
  15. A Cutlass just like this lives in my neighborhood, and I pay my respects every time my wife and I walk past and the garage door is up. Chris
  16. Actually, Derek, a very good long term (15+ year) friend of mine who is black was offended when I refered to him as African-American. "I'm not from Africa, and don't ever forget it...I'm American Dammit, just American...." Chris
  17. Good luck to you my friend, as it has been 23 years for me with the same S.O. and I still think about her all of the time. Thankfully she had that same thought on HER mind this A.M.... Chris
  18. Interesting also to see what the ecotech does in terms of real world MPG with American drivers in the Astra. (Yeah I know the Astra is a 1.8, but it is the same basic motor, right? Or am I wrong on this one....?) Chris
  19. Our 86 Cavalier (manual 4 cyl) got 42/43 on the highway a couple of times, and Cobalts with manuals can puyt out good fuel econ. #. The other huge advantadge that the Cobalt has is the extra torque in an auto to turn an auto tranny, as 97% of these things are auto. Chris
  20. What he said. Although these vehicles are really not my cup of tea. Chris
  21. I've seen a couple, but very, very, very seldom see these. Always wondered why people didn't just collect the 64-65 Bu as hard as some of the later models. Clean 64 two door hardtop lives just up the road a bit from me....blue on blue....nice car. Chris
  22. Given what the republicans have done to our economy, doing anything is going to get a lot harder... But yeah, I'd like to see the BU' exported. Fusion in Brazil? Interesting. Chris
