Wow, some of these are just plain amazing. A Lambo driving right into a lake in one of them!

That second one with the yellow Lambo happened within view of my old house in the Woodlands, TX. - The two corvettes was another 3 blocks or so from there.
Could have seen it if I was standing in the side yard~ Lots of rich mofos around there. And the BUGGATTI VEYRON that drove into the lake (galveston bay area) was actually an insurance scam, and the guys videoing helped provide the evidence to convict the guy. |

Honestly I can't see how that will work.

I noticed my Truck making some break noise over the weekend. Since I took the rest of the week off, today looked like the best day to replace the pads weather wise.
On one of the break caliper pistons, I had the C-clamp push out too close to the edge and ended up breaking off about an 1/8" chunk of metal pushing it back in. It doesn't look like it will effect the performance of the pads, I hope this doesn't come back to bite me in the end. |

No pic, 2000 Ford 150, 4.2 engine, 225,000 miles, 5 lug, uses a quart of oil every 2 to 3 weeks. Basically broke off the outside edge of a piston (two per caliper) 1/8" in about a 1/4" long and yes metal. Last edited by Buzz; 12-22-2015 at 09:22 PM.. |

Not done yet. You cant tell in the picture, but the dash has been extended another 4", and the seat boxes will be pushed back and the rear seat removed. The car will have a low, slung back driving position. Everything in this car is pushed back so it feels more like a modern car. In a standard classic, you have to reach all the way forward to shift, (or get one of those fugly throw-back shifters) in those shitty bucket seats that have no support. Not this one. The shifter will be near the hip and you'll be planted in brand new fully electric Recaros.
There will be more leg room in this car (as with all the cars we build) than in a standard Classic Mustang. |
