  1. Has anyone noticed on digital cable that the show description might say something like, "Mustang Vs. El Camino" and the episode turns out to be two completely different cars? Always happens to me
  2. I dont really care about them, if it helps people cope with the loss of a loved one, i think its ok for them to do it. But in America, its nothing like what they do in Greece. There they put up actual boxes (think sidewalk newspaper dispenser made out of wood and glass) with the persons pic in it, religious paraphernalia, flowers etc. Now i think thats overdoing it
  3. IMO i think the car is pretty ugly, I think they should hav just continued on with a facelift on the R34, not a whole new car. Just my $.02

  6. I LOVE 1st gen. Celicas, and this one, imo, is beautiful:hail:
  7. My father and I have purchased many parts from them for our 240Z, they have good stuff, but we have found them to be quite worthless with advice and we havent had very good customer service. Motorsport Auto, however, we have had a lot better experience with them, although they may be a tad pricier on certain parts, but you get what you pay for in terms of customer service and help
  8. I was a lot tech at Kerry Used Cars in Milford for the past two years, but now it shut down, so im out of a job :/

    Old blown Mullholland shocks, and springs. I wouldnt be surprised if these were OEM parts or something put in a LONG time ago, due to their decrepit state

    Engine bay all cleaned up and painted. Its not going to be a black Z, but a black engine bay would go with any color we decide to paint later on down the line

The other parts were painted w/ x2 coats of acid etch primer, x2 coats of Rustoleum and then x2 good coats of truck bed liner. The new shocks and springs will be from Tokico. New Brembo brake covers, rebuilt brake mechanism and new bearings in the rear

  18. So far, i havent done anything really stupid yet.... *knock on wood* But a few years back, my father and mother were going to some charity car show, and on the way there it started raining. My mom made the mistake of trying to get my dad to look at houses on the way there, and while he wasnt looking, a stop sign was approaching very quickly with a car sitting at the line. My dads knee jerk reaction was to swerve and miss the car, but this caused him to slam his '66 Aston DB6 into the stop sign. Needless to say, he was a pretty unhappy... NOw he learned his lesson and never drives it unless its perfect outside. And a few months ago he was getting ready to go to work and forgot his rear driver side door was open, and backed the Volvo out of the garage. Well his door bent forward, and he stopped just in time to prevent a repeat of Tommy Boy, but either way, the door hardly shut afterwards and ended up bending part of the driver door too. In the end he had to replace the door, and the car looks great, you cant even tell something has happened to it:burnout:
