  1. Damn, you can get even more groceries now! I'm jelly
  2. I like the creative names for your cars lol Nice work, good to see you got it back up and running! and about the cat
  3. It's gettin there! Good work. The force of pic whoring is weak in this one...
  4. Very nice! Definitely would have done this if I got a Goat. Good upgrade, can't wait to hear more!
  5. Like said above if you aim them correctly, they shouldn't bother people. Most people don't know how to aim their HIDs so that's when it goes in your eyes and just about blinds you (or they're aholes like you said that leave their brights on). There are different shades of HID, you can get White all the way to mega Blue. The higher you go up in temp, the more blue it is and obviously the bluer shades are illegal depending on your cops
  6. Shouldn't have told your buddy where you were moving and loaded the two trucks up then tell your buddy to get in his then to follow you. Drive around the block a few times, make sure he gets lost then park in front of the new house. Then just walk over to your old one to grab more stuff after moving the stuff in the truck in
  7. I'm very picky about rims and honestly I couldn't tell you why. Either they work for me or they don't, kinda why I'm probably never going to get any for the 6er, apart from maybe some GTPs. The VW looks alright with those rims because it matches the style of that car, I don't know how they would do on a 6er. Problem with the 6er too is not a good amount of rims looks good, well to me lol. What I'm trying to get at is if you like them, that's all that matters, I'm just picky
  8. I guess that would make sense, I thought the flowers looked a little girly
  9. Meh I don't really qualify the 1966 Shelby Cobra 427 as a "muscle car" but then again of its time there was nothing other to qualify it as. Overall, I'd have say the GTO "should" be number 1. Without it there would be no muscle cars, then again I guess you could argue Ford took the Mustang and ran with it to make it a big deal years later. I guess I'm looking at this with a historic background as well... Like I said meh, you can never have a genuine list of the "best" because everyone has biases, even an "expert" on the subject will.
  10. There are certain things that a classic car can have that are not from its era and I have to say HIDs is one of them. Very nice Phoenix though! and for the Springfield area of Mass!
  11. Sadly common courtesy needs to be taught and stressed again. Parents need to teach their children how to interact with the human population because it is a thing of the past I'm noticing.
  12. Just because you're getting a good deal on something doesn't make it the right part or worth your while for that matter.
  13. Cool pics, stealth looks good. Engine bay isn't that bad, seen way worse. I've never understood the usage of propping your hood up with something so it's only about 1/4 open and you can't see inside nor the top of the hood really... Your friends truck is more and you can actually see inside a bit but why not just open the damn thing? Sal Sr's Charger ain't bad, I'd remove the dodge ram head decal on the side and the stars on the headlamps. I actually really like the green on the grille too. Good to hear you patched things up with him.

  15. I haven't changed mine in a while as seen
  16. Gotta get this out... This totally just freaking urks me how lazy people are, like I'm lazy when it comes to my own stuff but when something effects someone else I immediately am there. Today and yesterday I was out running errands picking up groceries, etc and it amazed how many shopping carts there were just littering the parking lot, are people too lazy to walk the extra 2 feet to put them in the corral? People who don't cherish their car and park 20 miles away from people don't understand how much I DON'T want a shopping cart next to my car for the off chance that it will crash into it. I literally went off on some lady today who as I was coming out left her cart next to my car when the corral was right behind us. It's common courtesy for A. your fellow shopper's cars and B. for the cart person who has to bring them in. Just pisses me off how lazy people are this day in age and for me, someone who as busy as I am, to be a courteous person and pick up the slack and put one away that was really about 2 feet away and the person couldn't walk it... I fear the future, I really do if something as trivial as shopping carts in a corral that's 2 feet away can't be accomplished because someone was too lazy, what the bump is next... /rant
  17. I feel the attention to detail has been lost in the modern age due to Japanese automakers pumping out large quantities of low end vehicles just for the sake of being low end and soulless so they could sell them at close to nothing. Then everyone else had to do the same to stay in the new market so we ended up with mass production vehicles with very little thought put into them because more design phases = more money into them and the whole purposes of some of these vehicles was just to sell as cheap as possible. Sadly this has become a norm in the industry now because tons of people have bought these and now what the majority of people think a car should be, cheap and soulless (why we get looked at weird when we start modding our cars and giving them love). Then even up the chain to expensive cars this kinda had the ripple effect. Good news is with technology getting cheaper we actually can see the same thing be achieved but with better results thus time for more planning of cars. I still see most of these cars as soulless but thank god the Camaro isn't even near one of them! I could go on and on about this but I'll stop there... hmm, this would make an interesting article...
  18. put into focus of camera jk It looks good, I really like it!
  19. I'd love to make a car from the ground up with everything I want in a car but sad point is marketing that would be hard because there might be 100 people in the WORLD who want a car that specific way and getting into the market period is hard at this point int time unless you have something going for you... I know, I know all you were talking figuratively but I'm a realist and haven't had a beer yet so I'm still in work mode and haven't moved onto weekend mode lol.
