because of the ease of repairing our cars and the relative simplicity of them make them sensational cars to own. nothing more satisfying than doing your own manintenance and tuning on your own car

I will work to keep it in prestine condition for as long as I can. Not selling this paid off ride. If something breaks... I'll fix it with something better and stronger.

Had my right headlamp go out so I swung in the local auto parts dive to see what they had. “Don’t have one here but we can have it here tomorrow, $130!” Silverstar bulb so known manufacturer but damn? $130?

I decided to check around a bit. Amazon of course, TWO bulbs made from the finest Chineseium available, twenny-five bucks. Such a deal. Including a one or two year warranty.

We throw $25 bucks at some senseless things so I figured risking 25 for some very inexpensive HID bulbs wasn’t a complete waste.

They fit perfect and are much brighter than what was in there. I suspect original bulbs since they were Osram.

If these only last a couple of years no big deal, they were only 25 bucks.

I got some factory ones if those don’t work out for you. I don’t think you are far from me. You can have them if you need them.

I installed a QTP electronic cutouts and a Mighty Mouse catch can and I ordered Forgestar 17” F14’s and Mickey Thompson 305’s

Painted the inside of my wheels. It was easy and it makes the polished wheels stand out. IMOP.

It appears this it true. Curious to know why

Oh No!

Spec is one of the nicest guys on here. He never insults or causes trouble, and I have never seen him do anything resembling 'rule breakage'. By all accounts he is exactly the type of member this site needs and is the last guy I would expect to see suspended. Thankfully it doesn't say 'Banned', so he should be back in a week or so.

Must have been because of the shifter thread.....

Unlikely but possible. I’ve seen way worse said than what he stated and he apologized shortly after.

I built a Harbor freight 10x17 portable garage for it to sleep in for the winter. Seems pretty stout. We'll see.........
