Photo of the day

The painful realization that your engine will now fit loosely in a 5 gallon bucket.

That's quite a concussion- I bet that would jingle your bells.... Looks similar to a nitrous explosion at NYIRP on a 5.0 Mustang. Rescue personnel had to drag him out of his car- scrambled his eggs pretty good. Good thing it was at the launch, it rolled to a stopped by 60 ft mark.

Check out the now bulged hood.

I presume the front wheels are off the ground from explosive force, not torque.

Anyone ever drink one of these? I'd give 10 bucks for a bottle if it's drinkable still. I've never had it and they stopped making it last year.

If you can't read it due to the small picture it says Dublin Dr. Pepper.

Never heard of it, but if it's Dr. Pepper it's gotta be good.

A little off the top?

That's one way to chop a top.

I would have loved this as a teenager.

That's fun just to LOOK at let alone drive it...WOOT!

Oh I guarantee I'd have ended up getting in trouble on those. Shoot what am I saying, I'd still end up getting it trouble on those.  

I like to do what we called ridge running when I was younger. Not sure how I didn't get killed on the back roads. On out in the county there are some spots that have ramps in them. Rifle Range Road was a good one. Yea you city slickers that is the real name. lol.. I was hitting them so hard I was bouncing off the frame landing in my Firebird. I bought a set of what they called "High lift big block springs'' from JC Whitney. It raised the front of the car so hi in the air that we had to take all the adjustment shims out of the upper control arms to keep it from balling the sides of the thread on the tires. It was stiff  as a rock. No give but I tell you what, get 4 to 6 feet of air under that car at 120 mph jump and it landed like it was on air bags and foam roads. I still have the springs in the garage if anyone wants to try them. lol

I was born about 15 years to late.  

is that a 41 plymouth sitting there?

Nope it's a Chevy, looks a lot like the Plymouth though different head lights and marker light.

I thought so just seems funy to have a grill as close as the plymouth

One cool truck.

With such nasty weather around my part of town I thought this was the perfect picture for today. Note the sign

gotta love vinyl tops

Lots of these young fellas don't remember the fun of tire chains or studded snow tires.

I thought it was fun watching cars do burnouts with studded tires. Sparks rolling around the tire like neons. ... Don't ask.     

Been there done that.....
