I HATE floor mounted e-brakes. HATE them. They plain suck and seem to wear out in about 10,000 miles and or two years. So I think the hand parking brake is cool, as far as the interior I think it's decent for what it is. Who cares, I'll buy one even wiht rolled sheetmetal for a dash so long as it's SBC powered & RWD.

1. I don't have the software to edit Quicktimes. 2. I love hearing that metallic whirr of a SBC's starter. 3. It's more REAL that way, no B.S. just some legit Tight Whips action. :wink:

Try this link MM.

When Marcia's away the Tight Whips Car Club will play. Since this sunday at around noon the Camaro will be on a car trailer headed to Upstate New York I thought that it was only right to have one last earth shakin', tire fryin' burnout spectacular! Me & Speeding Penguin drove to an undisclosed location in New England and took some photos of the Malibu next to the Panther-Camaro. Then the fun began right when the tape started rolling. Make sure to check out the video, it's a quicktime. At one point I think I starved the car of fuel with the constant Gs. Then I flooded it but as you will see it started up fine. We have three videos all togeather but I kept throwing my fan belt if I got close to 7000rpm. This video only shows the car at much lower revolutions, like 4000-5500RPM. It sounds even louder & better at 7000RPM. clicky ----------- The aftermath.

Nothing like Amber Fog Lights to turn a daily driven detroit monster into a T1Gh+ W#!P.

My Datsun has a nasty a$$ tick, always has always will but your Grand Am I'm pretty sure should not. Eh, who needs an oil pump anyways? Just top it off w/ 12 more quarts. :wink:

I took this pic down in Virginia last fall on my raoadtrip to deliver the 1969 Camaro to No. Carolina.

Here you go buddy... only took forever and a day.

YES!!!

Yeah... it's been a weird past few days. Kind of a mix of shell-shock & euphoria. For those who did't see the ebay listing:

Last time I saw it was yesterday on the Tyngsboro Bridge, the last time before that was last fall when the car was stripped and about to get repainted. I guess it's the original color since it got repainteed the exact shade even though the door jambs, underhood & trunk were painted but no change in hue was made. Love that concave rear window. And of course it's a hardtop.

BLS is still IMHO one of the worst names in GM history. AWFUL!

Pretty funny video. Of course it woudl have been more impressive if that was a 1976 Eldorado but that little Civic had like 4 feet of space in front & a couple feet in the back to work with, if you're too dumb to be able to parallel park a Civic in a parking space big enough for a DTS then maybe driving is not your gig. So as it stands this makes the score: RWD: 529,472 FWD: 1 It wouldn't.

You didn't hear buddy? http://www.cheersandgears.com/forums/index...wtopic=9367&hl=

Awsome! I'm defiantely going out there at some point this year. GM1, Balthazar, Camino, Black&Blue, OCNBLU and others live in that general area.

Yes, I'm sure I'll get the Cars DVD for Sofia eventually.

I think they should do a Kappa Chevy too... call it Nomad or Nova or Blue Flame... Style it accordingly, as in the Nomad concept or a 2 dr ht of some sort.

Does he not bring up some valid points???

Wow, Those are awsome! I love the SS-style hood wiht the dual quad chrome inlets, just like the original. The black & blue two tone is very cool too. Can I "borrow" one of these for a sig. if I give you credit below?

Since my Camaro will be departig from my life soon I think I will post a few of its finer moments from the past 4 years here... it's no show winner but it is a muscle car & pony car in the TRUE definition. Here's a chop I did of possible paint jobs I considered for the car last year when I still wanted to keep it.

Q45, 11:20pm, undisclosed location north of Hartford Connecticut.

Dude.... we've all been there. I know I certainly have. Keep your head up buddy. Life has a way of doing a 180* just when you feel like you need to hot the brakes. I mean breaks. Hittign the gym is therapudic, even better: going to the firing range and shooting off a bunch of ammo into an innocent paper target. Damn, it's been two years since the last time I went, much too long.

You lost me Griffon. Hudson: What part of the country are you in? If you're anywhere in N.E. I'll stop by next time one of my crazy roadtrips. WMJ: Don't say F-biased-AWD or I'll kick your butt. :wink:

You say that like it's a bad thing.... I'm about to upgrade from a 350 to 394 in my classic car. That's six and a half liters for you metric types. Not to mention when me and XP teamed up to save BIG RED from the crusher he payed $300 for it the day gas went up momentarily to like $3.79 a gallon.
