Quoted from Travish:Lot of cool cars here but no one is saying how long they have had them or how much they paid. Had my big Buick Riviera 27 years and paid $400. Here is a before shot. My son is 27 now.
Cool pic, you should take another pic of him standing on it now. 
Quoted from o-din:I like my cars to be able to get me there.
That's bad ass! Would love a ride in that.
Quoted from Fulltilt:My '72 Swede. With the original Blaupunkt tunes.
I like the lines of that car, what does it have for an engine?
Quoted from ls1chris:been sitting like this past 3 years i hope i can start to free up some time and finish it this winter.
Nice bird! Man if I had it painted I would be working on it, I always have a hard time getting motivated to work on a car till after its painted, especially after the metalwork is done.
Quoted from TheLaw:V6 Trans Am
It was one of the fastest production cars of its time 80s and into tbe 90s.
I never cared much for 4bangers or v6 cars growing up but my buddy got his ass spanked by a grand national and he had a demon with a 440 big block v8. I still want a 77-78 smokey and the bandit trans am but stock i dont think they had 200hp.
Quoted from Astropin:And that's sad.....especially given where we are today.
Its funny in i think 1978 the fastest US production car was a lil red express dodge truck only because they were exempt to alot of emission laws and Dodge capitalized on it, they didn't sell a whole lot of them but thats pretty funny a pickup truck was the fastest production vehicle.
Quoted from Defender:Mine is a 2006 Saturn Sky, but modified by Mallet Cars with an LS2 V8. Beats the poor little 4 cylinder that it came with!
I always thought that was a good looking car that deserved a V8. very nice job!
Quoted from robertmee:And one I'm building for my wife...an original 1990 Dakota Convertible. Transplanting a 360 Magnum into it.
Was it originally a v6? Dont see many of those trucks anymore.
I always thought they were pretty cool trucks. Didn't know they built that few, there was a guy we used to see at the mopar nationals in ohio every year, him and his wife had 2 Shelbys, I dont know what years they were. Remember seeing one on the freeway in the early 90s upside down with the windshield and roll bar smashed all the way to the doors, so unless the person driving ducked i doubt there no longer with us.
Quoted from Hop-Pac:Just got her all shined up and ready to roll
Does it have t-tops? Nice Camaro
Quoted from MustangPaul:It's my Mustangs 47th Birthday today, I picked it up about 5pm that day. It's older then some of you guys.
Its got me by a year and 6 days.
Quoted from Yelobird:Since I wasn't seeing much Love for the great AMC I thought I would post a picture of my 1970 AMC Gremlin. Levi interior and to the dismay of most of the high $$$ cars at the show it wins most every time. It's parked next to my recently sold 1965 Mustang. Love that AMC, sad to see them all gone. So many memories for So many people I bet....Lol
Straight six or v8? Cool car, my dad had a green one when i was a kid had a bad starter that every now and then it wouldnt work and he would have to get out and hit ot with a hammer and it would fire right up.
Quoted from MustangPaul:I take it your not gonna be working on the car in the garage.
Probably wear slippers in there now. Looks really nice.
Quoted from Astropin:Must have just gotten a lemon. My wife and I have owned four consecutive vehicles with Hemi's and have never had a single problem. My current is a 6.4L SRT.
My buddy has a 2005 magnum and it has the Diamler trans in it and has had some problems, my other friend had one and he took it back so many time even though he had a warranty he ended up trading it in one day, said he was tired of dropping it off to the dealer.
Quoted from Laseriffic:My 1966 Chevy Nova SS
I like the green 
Sold one of my rides yesterday, bought it in 96 and slowly fixed it up, had alot of fun thru the years with the car but after having kids it sat around alot, ended up restoring a convertible to ride around in the summer as a family car. I brought it to a car show and put a for sale sign in it had a guy from out of state call me a week later and ended up buying it, now i have an extra spot in the garage and some pin funds, maybe.
Quoted from Bud:My old ride I turned into pinball machines
How many did you get?
Quoted from FuryosJustin:nice,is that a coronet!!
Yes, 66 convertible.
Quoted from MustangPaul:The Mustang is painted, cleared and buffed, looks like a black mirror. Now for the Satin black pieces front and back.
Looks bad ass! Is it just a track car or street also.
Poat a pic of what you have.
Quoted from Fulltilt:Replacing trunk weather stripping.
Would greatly appreciate tips on removal.
Quoted from MattS:On mine all it took was a tune and some open track days at the road course.....
Oh well, fully forged 426 will be here this week.
Did the valve hit the piston?
Its just funny that it broke off right at the valve relief, figured you over revved it and the valve hit it from valve float, my wife has an 2015 srt, only problem we have had was one smoked clutch, found out there is an orfice in the slave cylinder to slow the clutch movement (I guess to help inexperienced drivers take off but also makes it harder to shift fast) will be removing it in the spring.
Quoted from MattS:Just strapped it to the dyno
Well whats tbe numbers?
Quoted from Pinless:39k mile 1987 GN. Gone, but never forgotten. I will have another one day.
Would love a nice 87 one day.
Quoted from robertmee:Anyone had a ceramic coating applied to their vehicle? Pro, con, brand and cost?
What are you looking for? Ceramic coating for headers or exhaust?
I liked my wifes 6 speed challenger SRT until my buddy let me drive his scatpack challenger with paddle shifter and in sport mode it shifted as hard as my race car, also when your driving a car with 500 hp its alot harder to keep the wheels from spinning in a manual. I remember in the 90s my wife had a 90 mustang lx 5.0 with an automatic, she wanted a 5 speed but her mom said no one would buy it with a manual, when she sold it she could not get anyone to buy it cause it had an automatic. Fast forward to a couple years ago we sold her 2010 challenger rt 6speed, we couldnt give it away cause it wasnt an auto, she had to special order it because no dealers had a 6speed. Times have changed
Quoted from MustangPaul:You like the attention the colors bring. Years ago I went from Grabber Orange on the Mustang to black.
I had a bright red Camaro back in the day, cant tell you how many times I got pulled over for driving the speed limit, my old brown Valiant I could speed past a cop And he wouldnt even look at me.
Quoted from Fulltilt:Found a nice pic of my old Raider. I loved that truck.

Did you ever max out the tip guage?
ebay.com link: 4 spinner cap center cap FORD RED oval style decals 1 3 4 dia licensed part he says he has blue also, not exactly what your looking for but?
Quoted from psd4me:I'm going to get a spray in bed liner and wasn't going to waste the time or paint spraying it orange.
I dont blame you, as much as paint cost now it would be a waste anyway.
Quoted from OHMI_Arcade:Agree, kind of pricey for 5000 lb capacity. But I don’t really have the ceiling height for a lift and won’t have to sink this into the concrete (assuming my garage slab is even thick enough). Don’t seem to be many other (good) options.
How tall is your ceiling?
Quoted from Hdmike444:Brought this home the other day, my summer ride!
Love that car!
Quoted from jsyjay:My engine is nearly ready [quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]
Well whats that going in?
Quoted from bssbllr:[quoted image]
thats going to haul ass!
Quoted from EasternBloc:Indeed, 1968 Scout 800. First layer of “patina” removed. Can’t believe those old military tires still hold air! Body is remarkably sound, though all seats, wires and rubber are shot.[quoted image]
What are your plans?
Quoted from sohchx:Extremely happy with how the new setup performed this past weekend. Hopefully be in the 7's in the spring.[quoted image][quoted image]
Lets see the rest of the car, man that runs good, is it awd?
Quoted from jsyjay:My painter just sent me these pictures. I can't wait to go and have a look myself tomorrow!
Very nice color! did he even need one quart?
Quoted from DarthPaul:Rusting away in my backyard.
[quoted image]
How much do you want for it? Always wanted a 68-69 charger.
Quoted from Concretehardt:I hope that next year will a better year for me and I will get to go cruise it again like old times.
Beautiful car! And I hope you get her out on the road next year.
Quoted from Meegis:Random question, anyone here have a connection to Mopar parts at a discount?
If you know anyone that is an employee there they get 20% or 25% off on parts with a pin number.
Quoted from Jamesays:Very Nice, I was walking by a Bank when I was about 20.A blue 69 Charger 440 RT was in the parking lot with 4 flat tires.I went in and asked about it.The Banker said a Guy had 1 payment left and had issues with the bank so he left it in the parking lot with flat tires and told the Bank to Screw off.The Banker told me make the last payment and tow it out of there and its mine.I gave him the 300 bucks put air in the tires and drove away.
when was that? nice score, do you still have it?
