Yeah, I know, they got me dead to rights. I slowed to a roll, looked left, nothing was coming, I kept going. Perfectly clear on the video, I wouldn't even try to fight it. I'm just being cranky about it.
Whoa there, I never said that... Just that these things are popping up lots of places, and the one I pass on the way to work is in a 25 that frequently rolls along closer to 40. I bet it doesn't take long for the average speed there to drop a ways...
Grrr, don't get me started. I just got one of these in the mail... Apparently when I visited family on LI for Easter, Big Brother caught me rolling thru a right on red. Also, where I work, which happens to be western MD, they just posted in the paper that there are two stationary speed cameras going online near…
Just makes me angry. Like violent, blunt-object-swinging angry.
Incredibly awesome. Wish I knew what at least the cab was from...
"It gets 12 miles per gallon, and for that, you get a 17.685 second quarter mile time.
I just sold my 2005 Pacifica with something like 143,000 miles on it. Bought it in February 2007 with around 50,000, so that's, what, just short of 100K? I actually kinda liked that car.
I don't remember that... but it's possible. The car had NOTHING in the way of options... no AC, no power windows, no nothing, so maybe it had no automatic choke either. He put a stereo in it and I think he had a cheap sunroof installed and it was perfect.
My brother had one of these in silver. I'm thinking '83 or '84... did they make this body style that early? Loved loved LOVED driving that car. Just a simple little go-kart with a 5-speed that practically drove itself. But that was back before we knew anything about timing belts and interference engines; we had both…
I agree. A guy I knew in high school had a brown II with T-tops and a 302 which apparently had some work done to it... quite a little rocket, as I recall.
"Unless what you're selling is Selena Gomez-flavored popsicles..."
Granatelli Turbine Corvette? Somehow that's stuck in my head from some book I read as a kid in the '70s...
Google Tyler Shipman. Have a box of tissues handy.
Very well done. I read the original Seuss version to kindergarten classes. I think they might find your version quite amusing too, though I won't be the one to read it to them...
If the manufacturers don't build it in, the guys who race their cars will get with the guys who program computers and figure something out. I'm reminded of the 1-4 skip-shift feature on Corvettes and Camaros some years ago... I thought I remembered reading that it was as simple as knowing what orange wire to cut, but…
holy SHIT. first i cruised thru videos of all this guy's beater pickup crawlers idling sedately through the woods. (very therapeutic, by the way.) then i hit this build thread as you suggested. this guy has redefined batshit crazy. in the most awesome way possible.
That is all kinds of awesome and amazing. Sadly, it also reminds me that I have a long way to go...
Why yes, let's enhance.
love it. this is the way retro should be done, IMHO.
