EXCEPT......different color, minus 1 tailpipe, NO 5.0 badges. ;) Sorry man, I just had too. :nice: That'll look good though.

Yeah, they are apparently from a T-Bird so I'm gonna have to get different center caps for them. Rubber is included so no more skinnies up front.

So you're not going to the awards thingie at Rockledge City Hall?

no, i don't feel like it. I've been to so many award things, it gets boring after awhile listening to the same speech, with the same monotone voice guy that is really thinking of himself while thanking other people for doing stuff that make him look good. Who always thinks he's funny, when he's not.

But anyway, White talked me into inviting some of my friends to come on wed. so i'm going to call up some of my girl friends, and try to get them to come out, i'm sure i could get a few. They don't know anything about cars, but i'm sure if i told them there were a lot of guys with nice cars coming they wouldn't turn it down (as long as none of them are working). :nice:

I'm no good at guessing prices, but if you'd fix the freaking side, you would definately get more. You won't get $7K out of it for sure with that huge dent. Maybe $4K? :shrug: You see, if I were buying it, and saw the dent, I would take it as a sign that either A: You didn't take care of your car or B: You were a very hard driver. I know you ain't got the cash to do it right now, but you need to find some way to get it done, IMO.
 
Oh, Baglock, I have a question for you. What class would catted H-pipes put me in? I was going to go o/r, but I found out that Kelly Ford refuses to work on Brian's car with his, so I was thinking of just going catted, but I don't want to move up into another class. Thanks. :cool:

That's understandable.......but if I didn't take car of the car then it wouldn't look like it does in the pics for one nor would I be on here most likely. BTW, I do have a fender ready to go on, I just don't have the money to paint it......*looking for job right now* ;)

Thanks for you opinion though man.

Yeah, don't want to have unpainted pieces on your car, cause then we'll call you a ricer. :jester: ;) Good luck with the job. How 'bout Discount Auto Parts? :cool:
 
I got my 10 hole rims! After I get gas tomorrow i'm gonna put them on if there isn't anything wrong with um. My uncle says one of them had no air so I'm gonna have to check for a leak. So i'll be roll'n on nicer tires for once.

You could have just saved that money and put it towards a new car. :jester: Seriously, though, you need to stop being a bum and put some of those computer and robot skills to some use and get yourself some money. :D Congrats on the buy, though. :nice: :cool:

You see, this was a "Get it While Its Hot"(not stolen mind you) type of deal, I'm getting them for $75 with tires included, its hard finding that type of deal, a guy in South Florida is selling a set for $200.

Besides, the tires that are on my car barely get me anyway safely. Remember when I said I lost the rear end taking a corner that I normally take everday? Not to mention its the summer which means rain? When I start working I gotta be able to commute even the shortest of distance without worrying about loosing control :D

Besides, they look sweet!:nice:

Okay, that's cool. Good deal, actually. Congrats, anyway. :nice:
 
Can any of you guys tell me when the next AutoX event is being held in Palm Bay. Either Martin or SCCA.

Also I learned about this place and I plan on attending this fall. It is an AutoX workshop. Lots of driving time with tons of instruction.
I find the local SCCA lacking as far as good teacking is concerned. Most of the "instructors" seem more intent on showing you how awesome of a driver they are rather than teaching you good technique.
Here is a link to the Gulfcoast Autocrossers page. The class costs something like $15 the class is on a Saturday then you race the next day in a scheaduled AutoX event and try out your new skills.

I am also doing this. baglock1 I thought this might interest you. You actually get about 5 hours of track time on courses like Sebrings 12 hour course or Homesteads Road course with an instructor in your car the whole time giving you tips and advice. It costs $250 for the whole day. You get over 5 hours of seat time.
