Nice cars.

Your picture taking skills have not improved, however.

I try not to get too much. No plates for sure.

Plus they were all lined up, it's tough to get a good side view, and on the packard it was crazy bright outside.

But yeah it's not one of my skills

Just pitching you shit.

So you didn't know this guy at all? I thought you lived in a pretty small town. Pretty awesome he had all those in his garage.

I just knew him in passing from there. We all sit there and shoot the shit. Come to find out he owns a company in kck not far from where I grew up. We've gotten to be buddies. He stops by the shop on his way to "work" most days lol

Town has 2700 some odd people, but there's probably 20k in the surrounding lake resorts. Some are dumps and some have multi million dollar homes.

Sweet.

Shit Jason I'm going to have to ride the bike down and just start hanging out with you so I can see all these cool cars

There's a place in Braymer, Mo like that (or at least there used to be).

The guy bought an old general store or something like that on the corner and used the loading docks to put a dozen nice old cars in there. He was an out of towner so he was never even there. Nobody ever saw the cars out and nobody really ever saw anyone go in. It was just this old building in the middle of an old-school town square with a bunch of nice cars in it that sat there collecting dust.

Weird stories like that abound. If every classic car that people had squirreled away hit the market at once, you could probably get one of them for the price of a used corolla. There are a shitload more of these high-end classics sitting around than we realize.

a couple of them still had the sales slips hanging from the rearview mirrors. they had only been moved from the hauler to the building.

he just left here and told me again to come out and drive them any time i want. even gave me keys to the building and a money bag with keys to all the cars in it.:eek:

You sucked his dick, didn't you?

Because it's okay if you did. Nobody would judge you.

No. I'm just a likeable guy.

ROFL

likely story.

NTTAWWT.

all he would have had to do was ask. he didnt. my gain

This didn't look right. Is it?http://i.imgur.com/r0vtnIY.jpg

For what? That's an old ass terragator.

That front tire is backwards isn't it?

Home made avalanche http://i.imgur.com/xGnnWoX.jpg

It's not a drive wheel. Doesn't matter much. Some guys (mistakenly) think it kicks up less dust. It could be intentional but someone is likely an idiot.

Last year I bought 2 new tires on my sprayer and they put one of them on backwards. I wasn't a cock about it but I made them fix it. All 4 turn on my rig.

Some one here did that to a OJ type bronco. Then rattle canned it purple.

He looked like an idiot.

I'd say that's your answer. ROFL

I mean, he drove that thing through the town we were in and to the gas station to get a soda...

Need some thoughts.

I am wanting to make my 2013 Charger RT a little more, how do I say this, angry?

I guess what I'm trying to say is, how can I get a little more deep rumbling sound, yet not excessive loud? Everything on the car I have is originally factory, so other than tinting the windows, there has been no modifications done.

Does it need a cold air intake and/or a improved muffler/exhaust system?

Thanks in advance.

Well played douche. That soda is mission critical!!!

Unless you also want Turbo whine, the sound is going to come exclusively from your exhaust components and configuration. [that's why it's known as exhaust note]

CAI won't affect exhaust note. Some report a slight uptick in engine bay airflow noise, but that doesn't sound like what you're looking for.

The google term you're looking for is 'catback' which denotes the exhaust components from your catalytic converter [which must remain by law] to the back of your vehicle [pipes, mufflers and tips]. Use that with your make and model and you should get some youtube hits to listen to.

Not cheap though.

Look for an axleback exhaust. Catback will be louder and have better flow, but an axleback is better if you are just looking for a little more rumble. If you want a tiny bit of performance benefits, and dont mind it being loud go with a full cat back.

I have seen it done where a drive tire was put backwards on an ag vehicle with the idea that you get stuck a little quicker but you have enough more traction in reverse to back out. Can't say I ever saw proof that it worked either way but there was a "method to his madness"

On another note the wife has been wanting a new car.

I've been looking at the 2017 chevrolet ss. The last of the line, 6.2 6 speed rwd 415 hp.

Going to drive an automatic tomorrow because it's closer but we are leaning manual

Might as well go German for that price.

Lol, I just don't know if I have it in me...

And right now i can buy a brand new one with everything for under 40k...

I drove a Monte Carlo SS for 10 years, so I considered the SS... it's just a weird price point for Chevy. The Monte was under $30k, as is a Camaro of course.... and I personally didn't want the 2 extra doors.

Nice... well, in that case it would probably be naturally aspirated vs a 4 cylinder turbo. I test drove a 328i and the turbo lag was too much... floor the gas at 50mph, take a drink, wait for shit to kick in.

Yeah we need the extra doors, and I'm a v8 guy lol. I think I can buy the exact car I pictured for 38,900. Seems they have been dealing on then since they were discontinued. Last one was made last month.

Now thats a nice ****ing grocery getter.

I have an inline 6, which gets about 28mpg on the highway and can still kick your ass. :D

I do miss the rumble of a v8 though.

Looks like a good deal... there's something nice about driving an unassuming car with 450hp under the hood.

The wheels would have to go soon.

I wish she had said something 6 weeks ago, they were 20 percent off...

That looks hot Jason.

I always wanted a G8 or a new style GTO. This loooks like the next iteration. Get it done.

German isnt LS.

LS is really all that matters. Those SSes are awesome though I like the way g8s look a little better.

They're better than the ones your pickup came with :D

Yeah, it's not something everyone would recognize. And I'm sure a tune will REALLY open her up.

This is it. The last of the line. Discontinued the model.

They are, she's already on the look out for something else and we haven't even bought it.

Sounds like you have. :D

I found a demo that has 1220 miles on it for under 34k. But it's almost 700 miles away.

It's exactly what I want though so I left one of their sales men a message. I.would expect to hear from them first thing in the morning.

I'm still going to drive the automatic tomorrow though lol

Yeah, I am looking for something that would make it sound aggressive, but I also am aware of the noise that has to be reasonable, so I don't want to get attention, that's for sure. So I have been looking into some of those cat-backs.

I don't know if you live in KC, but (and this applies to others), is there a car store that would carry these types and do the labor as well, for a reasonable price?

Hey any of you guys have a good tire guy around mid MO..one of the tires on my Creep Wrangler failed and I'm looking to replace it

General Grabber AT2 size 265/70R15

Well I haven't.

They are crazy. Ever since they announced they were gone dealers act like they are gold.

I don't need it, I just want it. I can't stomach paying 10 grand more today than I could have 6 weeks ago.

I drove the **** out of one Friday afternoon though. The sales man said "those brembos are really getting a workout" just about the same time they started smoking. ROFL. Automatic even and I would have bought it right then had they sold it to me for the price it was at the end of March.

Wow. Well good job holding your ground.

Honestly, IMO SAMS Club has the best deals on tires typically but I am not sure how many options they have for off road stuff.

I don't buy tires anywhere else anymore for my daily driver cars, nobody can seem to beat SAM's prices as far as I can tell and its usually significant. Last set I bought for my old truck were $50 cheaper per tire than anywhere else for the exact same thing.

I have a feeling I'll end up with one, it just may take a couple months lol. Hell there are dealers that still have brand new 2015s on the lot. No 16s though.

They had a factory 20 percent rebate in March and sold a little over a thousand that month

They have sold less than 400 otherwise this year. I feel like I'm in a strong position. Dealers and chevy think people will want them more since they announced it's going away. It doesn't appear to be helping much by looking at the numbers.

CTS-V do it. Much better car.

I know, but it's another 40 grand. At least.

I can't really justify that.

A buddy of mine has an 86 mustang GT ragtop. He got it for his son to restore but it never happened. It's in "good" condition, runs, drives, shifts, stops. 78k miles. It's a 302ci (5.0). I think I can get him to let it go for $2200 or so. Certainly no classic, but a 302 ragtop none the less. Taking it for a spin tomorrow.

Well good ol Walmart pulls through with the tire for $123 but it won't be here till Tuesday

Pics bro.

Mustangs are redneck cars though. Be prepared for the name calling.

8.8 rear and the T-5 trans, add mas air and a baby Vortech and enjoy. Always loved the 4 eye verts.

Funny you mention that. I had an 88 (i think) convertible dropped at the shop today that I haven't even looked at but it's a t5 and supposedly has a supercharger and everything installed somewhere else but they can't get it to run right.

Pics?

Ok ill shoot a couple tomorrow, he offered to trade it to me for a new 5.4 3 valve. I passed.

It's supposedly got a professionally built motor and all kinds of stuff.

What the 3v worth?

It was a Ford motor, probably 6,700 I'm guessing. It was probably six weeks ago when I got it done. I can look. I wouldn't doubt he's got more than half that in the engine alone, plus the super charger. It's dark blue with gray on the bottom.


I've never even opened the hood yet though. Someone else did the work. I'll get it out tomorrow and shoot some pics and look it over

Im not sure he's driven it a hundred miles since the engine was installed

I've got several cool rides at the shop right now, the mustang. A 68 long bed Chevy that is pretty nice. A step side short bed 72 that's going on the power tour again next week.

Putting an engine in the 68. The step side has an oil leak that I'm going to fix again. It's been an issue through multiple builds of this block at the rear main. I finally got it sealed (after everyone and their mother tried, and it took me three tries) and then he pulled the motor after losing a piston and built it back to a 355 instead of a 383, thought the crank was the leak issue.

It wasn't.

I'm hoping I've got it fixed again. I'll know in the morning.

Take some pics and post them. If you don't buy it I may be interested.

And anyone that can guess what that vehicle with the baby blue paint and bumper on the backside on that engine pic is gets a plus 1 from me.

No cheating lol

Not sure how anyone could cheat off that much info but my first guess is a 65'ish Impala. What little you can see the tail lights look huge.

Lol. Not really close.

I sent you a pm.

The engine looks almost exactly like my black /black '87 5.0 LX Vert, except I have a Paxton kit. Car runs great to this day.

Early 70's Buick Riviera?

Not close to the make or year.

**** you.

Your picture sucked anyway.

This one runs like shit, but he said something about cutting some wires to the pressure pump because he didn't think it needed it. I:eek:
