    You may not remember me, but you have to see this!

    I sold my 95 GT to my wife's cousin, JR, a little over a year ago, and got a Bronco. Last night at 10:30 his doorbell rings, and when he answers, a guy pulls a gun on him. They end up wrestling around, but JR can't get control of the gun. He thinks he's dead for sure, but after 45 minutes of...

    95 GT guts into an 88 4-banger

    I'm going to pick up an 88 LX Notch tomorrow with the 2.3L. I'm wanting to put the drivetrain out of my 95 GT in it, and go carbed/sprayed. I know there are guys that have done this, so please let me hear what you ran into. Will the crossmember from my 95 GT work, or will I need one from a fox...

    Oil filter (GT vs. Cobra)

    My car has a questionable history because the guy I bought it from only had it two months before he wrecked it. I got it cheap, and fixed the damage. Unfortunately, the guy I got it from didn't know a spark plug from an oil filter, so I wasn't able to extract much information from him. There...

    Need rear suspension help (almost can't drive it)

    Alright guys, this issue is just getting worse, and worse. First of all, the axle sits an inch left of center, but that's not the bad part. I push the brake, the car jerks left. I let off the brake, the car jerks right. I punch the gas, the car jerks right. It is getting to where it is hard to...

    Help me fix my neighbors Chevy!

    Unfortunately, I can't just push it off a cliff since it isn't mine. He has a mid-90's Tahoe with the 350 Vortec. It has an unexplained loss of coolant. No leaks of any kind, not in oil as far as I can tell, but gone none the less. I was assuming he probably had a bad headgasket which was...

    Smog and A/C delete (belt size)

    I just did it. 80.5" 6 rib serpentine. No need for any delete kits, or dummy pulleys. This also bypassed the idler pulley. Just thought some one may want to know. Oh, and I didn't get a check engine light either. Brandon

    Who's right, and who's wrong (Ebay ordeal)

    OK, so I list these wheels on Ebay for a buddy. They came off a truck that he no longer has. I listed them on a 7 day auction. On the second day of the listing, a guy that lives in the same city as me E-Mail's me, and says he is in desperate need of those exact wheels, and asks me to do a "buy...

    Question about me vs. 96-98 GT

    The other night I was driving down a city street, and a 4.6 GT comes up beside me, and keeps jumping up a little, then bringing it back even, over and over. After 3-4 times, I slammed second and punched it. To my surprise, up halfway through third when I had to let off, he's still at the back of...

    Anyone in OK looking for 17X9" Cobra R's? (I'm not selling anything)

    I just went up to David's Wheels here in Broken Arrow, and picked up a good used set of Aluminum 5-star wheels with chrome center caps, and chrome lugnuts for $150 (for the 71 F-100). He had a pair (2) of used chrome 17X9 Cobra R's sitting in there with the snakes, and all. The top one looked...

    Rear wheel backspacing

    I just put some 275/40/18's on the back yesterday, and I noticed something funny. The passenger side wheel sits, what looks to be, about an inch further in the fenderwell than the driverside. The driverside tire is almost flush with the fender while the passenger tire is rubbing on the axle...

    Well, it's time (tire reccomendations)

    I was just in the garage, and noticed that the driver front tire had a tread groove that didn't match the rest of the tire. Upon closer examination, I discovered that it is actually a rip going all the way through to the steel belt :Damnit:. I was on the way to needing new tires anyway though...

    Piecing my stereo system together for my 95

    Right now I just have an Alpine CDA-7893 running the stock Mach stuff. Waiting in the wings, I have... 4 Kicker KS68 two-way coaxial speakers for the doors, and rear decklid. They will be powered by a Verge VGA460 (220W 4-channel) amplifier. I will probably also utilize the stock tweeters...

    Another turbo question

    OK, so I've been doing some thinking lately. As soon as I get done putting the tranny back in my 71, I'm going to remove the complete A/C system, and the smog pump from my GT. Is there any way I can do this without getting delete kits, or will I need 1/both to make it all work in the end? I did...

    Funky paint schemes

    I can't remember who it was, but someboday a while back was wondering about painting their car from like 2 inches below the windows down one color, and the rest another color. They had generated photo's of it and everything. I think it was black and red. I tried searching for it, but I couldn't...

    Quad shocks question

    Well, a couple weeks ago I decided to put stock springs back on my car, because I had enough of the beating it was giving me. So, I get new shocks/struts at the same time. I swap everything out, only to find that the "Eibach" springs the previous owner installed (along with his Eibach stickers...

    Did you guys see "Pinks" Wed night on speedchannel?

    This show just came out this year, and basically, you go online and challenge someone. The directors of the show see what you have, and if they like it, they put you on the show. It's all 1/4 mile. You run a test run, and then get to inspect the other guys car for like 10 minutes, then negotiate...

    Very funny (everyone needs a good laugh)

    A guy walks into the local welfare office, marches straight up to the counter and says, "Hi... You know, I just HATE drawing welfare. I'd really rather have a job." The social worker behind the counter says, "Your timing is excellent. We just got a job opening from a very...

    Gas going up to $4.00+!? (Katrina)

    The mayor of New Orleans was just on MSNBC. He said that 25% of the US oil supply comes through there, and that they are the only port capable of unloading supertankers. Everyone is being evacuated (both sides of all highways only running North, and East only). If you stay, you must be on the...

    All new suspension/ what to get?

    It's time to give my suspension a makeover. I would like a ride that isn't too rough, but I don't think it can get any rougher than mine is right now. I know I read a post from one guy that was putting down right at 300hp, and he could pull the fronts on slicks. I would like to be able to do...
