Its because its in too good a shape. No seriously. I don’t get it. So you were eager and happy to buy a whole bunch of junker super common XJ’s and stuff but not this? If it were me I would buy this, sell literally everything else you have except your daily driver and restore this one. It looks to be in pretty good…

Today:

That’s a lot of work for only 250 horsepower...

Hahaha ha hahaha.....

Not sure where “here” is for you, but In Michigan(and other states as well I’m sure) all you need is a VIN and they will issue a title and plate for whatever you brewed up in your meth-shed. No inspection needed.

The good news is you won’t endure the agony of burning to death, because that Buick 3800 will crush your skull from behind after those welds fail.

If you could ever get that engine to apply all of its effort through those rear tires, this thing would do a backflip.

No regerts on their way out.

Dead front axle, cut up engine bay that now holds a gas tank, very heavy engine and transmission held in place by rebar... This thing has so many options for how it will kill you.

it’s good to know that weirdos are still out there doing creative and head-scratching gearhead shit instead of just shoving an LS into whatever they bought. 

It’s SO MUCH WORK to have something so useless. Even if it were executed flawlessly, it’d be useless and stupid.

Need to go back and get Biff to put a few more coats of wax on this one.

In 1985, you could buy one of these BRAND NEW for about 7500-8500.

I mean, that’s still 50% over list, so you probably shouldn’t have bought it in 1985 either.

No, even for someone actually from Portland this makes no sense.

are we really going to segregate language to try to wash away some of the guilt some white people carry because other white people did shit in the past?
Spirit Animal are english words dude! This has to be the most nonsensical debate I have ever seen.

no because cultural appropriation is made up bullshit. culture is meant to be shared. its just something people bitch about when they see someone enjoying something and they think they dont deserve it. 

I mean if we go back long enough all of humanity was descended by cultures who wondered their spiritual connection with animals through art.

No, there’s no problem. It’s a really dumb thing to be mad about. It’s about as significant as a non-christian saying “Jesus Christ” when they stub their toe. Who fucking cares?
