  1. But that's how the Republican party Neocons stay around, by manipulating people and there fears. Which is why hardcore religion and the Neocon Republican right get along sooo well together. And yes, Rush is an Idiot...but he has millions of idiots that listen to him and vote. Chris
  2. Nothing wrong with owning a nice beater. One of our clients owns a 5 Series BMW that he bought new and is really anal about keeping nice. His Wife has a Benz about like Sixty Eights that she bought new and loves. She is a stewardess for Delta and he is a building manager. They also have a Cavalier. Perfect airport car when she flies out of town for a few days, and he can haul a coumpound miter saw or a couple of Sawzalls or whatever without having to get the bimmer dirty. They've had the Cavalier for ten years and its doing great. Chris
  3. I would be interested in a Track Package car, like the one you spec'd, set up for SCCA autocross. The Honda boys were pissed when they got their asses handed to them by a Solstice at the last auto-X, maybe we can make the Honda guys see even MORE GM tail light. chris
  4. The LH cars IMHO don't have good resale value AT ALL, though. Going to the local pick-and -pull to help a guy pull a hood and fender for a Fox body stang, I noticed a bunch of LH cars, many of them newer than 2000 and a few of them with under 100k on the clock. Guy at the yard said they were crushing them whole, there was very little demand for the cars or their parts. At another yard I was getting some other parts, and another LH car came in, clean, ran, was crushed before they had even pulled the lic. plates. I've seen the FWD letter cars in decent shape sell for under 2k around here. Great design...no one wants them. The RWD cars, OTOH, seem to bring a pretty good resale. Lower sales, but a more desireable car. Chris
  5. Florida should be Obamas saving grace, as a lot of older voters are sick about their 401K's an a lot of Hispanics are pissed with McCain about immigration. God, I hope Obama wins. I can't wait for this thing to be over. Chris
  6. Are the parts still available through GM to turn a regular third gen Camaro Z-28 into a 1LE clone? I've seen a few third gen Z cars in decent shape at decent prices, and am still thinking about buying one. Anyone know about the aluminium driveshaft, etc, for the conversion? Chris
  7. Again, I am just SO happy to see this thing being put back on the road. Thanks for the pics, they are a "pick me up" (pun not intended) after a bad day. Saw a really nice, solid, rust free 73 big body El-Camino undergoing restoration (taking a walk with my daughter in a different neighborhood.) Thought of you when I saw that. Chris
  8. Given our current economy, the #1 selling transportation device in three years will have four legs and $h! on the road. Chris
  9. Sad how much support there is for McCain here in Ohio, though. He may loose the election if he takes Ohio, but McCain still has LOTS of support here. Chris
  10. Sad, really. No one really wants to think about how bad our economy has really become.... Chris
  11. At that price point, it IS within my budget...and I AM going to be in the market. I think I'm going to ahve to change my username to something like CAMROGUY in a few months...amazing car! Chris
  12. Actually saw 3 nice old Coronet Convertibles down in Circleville this last weekend. Nice to see Mopars being preserved. Chris
  13. +1 Although McCain is back on top in Ohio according to the latest polls, and he is up in Florida also. It ain't over till the fat lady sings. Chris
  14. Sometimes it takes awhile for a new car to grow on you. I like the new Camaro much more than when I first saw the concept. Chris
  15. Actually if something happened to my wife, I would WANT to find a single mom, as I love kids. to each his own, I guess. But having kids is an attraction to dating older females for me, I would guess. Chris
  16. Pauli, I have a lot of friends who are either female or gay, and I feel sorry for people who are looking for a stable relationship with a guy because it seems that the pool of good, available men is rather small. As the father of three daughters (two of which are teenagers) I can tell you that there is a very good reason that both of my teen daughters are very much turned off by most guys their age. That being said, Mandy, the daughter of my good friend Cindy, is getting married to a great guy in April. There are good guys out there. But a whole lotta guys, esp. between about 13 and 35, seem to have no common sense or maturity whatsoever. Good luck, dude. There are a lot of gay couples here in Columbus, and every time I see one I think of you and pray to the god of internal combustion that you find someone you like. Chris
  17. I feel the same way about the Rougue that you do about the subie. I'd buy the Subaru about a billion times (ok, eleventy billion to the billionth power times) before I'd buy the Rogue. Hell, I'd buy a CRV before I'd buy a Rogue. Chris
  18. I just hate busyboidies like that, 68! Glad to hear you and Julie are doing well. Chris
  19. Someone needs to bring this country back to reality....glad Colin could be of service. Chris
  20. You will have logged more miles on test drives than you will put on your new car... J/K! Good luck and keep us posted! Chris
  21. My wife lived in Philly for a little while before we were married. Nice place to visit, but I don't know how anyone lives out there, or in any of the "Caostal" areas. Where I live is pretty peaceful, I am just south of Columbus, Ohio...25 minutes from downtown, but I am surrounded by farm fields and horse farms. Still too many idiots for my taste, though. Chris
  22. My parents live in the blue ridge mountains, they are wayy to overpopulated for my taste. IMHO I'd still prefer to be just up north. Living with -20 weather is preferable to living with most people. Although I can find myself "alone" in a crowd, which i sometiems enjoy. Chris
  23. I feel the same way, Camino. If there were jobs wayyy up north (UP Michigan, door county Wisconsin, Wyoming, SD, Etc.) I would love to live away from all of the ufking morons.... People make me sick...this woman makes me sicker... Chris
  24. Reminds me of a very pristine 65 Imperial a woman I know saved from becoming a demo derby car. That Impy looked about like a two year old car...glad to see that one saved. Sadly, a LOT of cars like this have ended up as derby cars here in Ohio. Brother in law of someone I know brings them up from the south by the car carrier load just for the purpose of using them as derby cars. We need lots O ammo... Chris
