The Official Hot Rod Thread - Part 2: No Replacement For Displacement

[thunderchicken]

This is why you don't legalize marijuana. People think up some weird **** smoking that crap.

If you look at it on your phone and squint just a little it kinda sorta maybe looks kinda like a Panterra with a Mustang front end. I have seen much worse ideas come to fruition. I just keep coming back to why? And how much did it cost to build?
I bet it can carve up some twisty turns and no dobt it can haul the mail when you put the pedal down. I'd rock it way before any Honda Crv though.

Here we go. First of all, if you get a chance to do the Power Tour, do it.

Chickamauga was on one of the routes, had to stop. we rolled through early. Perfect timing. Peaceful feeling there...

I got to run 2 laps around Atlanta, ill try to get a video up.

I made friends with the guys at TorqStorm Superchargers. Great bunch of guys with a nice looking product. They tried selling me a Poncho blower kit...

Who can name the movie??? Side note, shortly after this pic was taken, I traded two cans of tuna for a full jar of some shine.

Darlington.

I turn hobo on vacation.

Looks like a fun time. Makes me wish I had a car worthy of doing the power tour. Glad you had a good time

Awesome Rusty. Awesome.

Met the owners of this fine piece of machinery. Badass couple, badass car. 4.8 LS turbo.

Stopped at the Petty Garage.

The Hot Rod guys got me with my signature peace sign!

Had some fun with our new friends to wrap up the final event at Charlotte.

Heading to the Tail of the Dragon.

 

[RustyHornet]

So I had made friends earlier in the week with the guys from QA1 Suspension. They really liked my car and did a video interview with me. While heading home we hit the Tail, just randomly the QA1 guys pulled up! They were cool enough to let me run with them. WAY COOL EXPERIENCE, way cool people!!!

We actually owned one of those for a very brief period when my spouse totaled her new cutlass. I got it for dirt cheap and we rolled it for a couple of months until the insurance paid off. Sold it for 2 times what we paid for it.

Oh...hubby would like that station wagon! Good thing it is far away....I have an appointment for us to go look at an '84 suburban on Thursday. Arizona truck so supposed to be rust free. I need something to replace my '88 Chevy truck that is my daily driver.

Rusty was saying that the Power Tour was full of wagons, burbs, and crew cab cars. Perfect cruisers.

This is absolutely true.

Was that the dragons tail Rusty. If so we have done it multiple times on the bikes but never in a cage. Had to be an experience.

Yes sir. Was amazing. Ran through it with my new QA1 buddies pretty quick. My junk hung right with them. Had an absolute blast.

 

[mom45]

The pictures look like you had a great time! Hubby wanted to get me a square body truck, but now that my daughter is married I felt like I may need something that could accommodate car seats in the future and I would like the extra cargo space for when we go shopping. My 89 suburban isn't allowed on the road in winter so that makes winter shopping a challenge sometimes.

That ride would be fun to do in his '67!

 

[KJQ6945]

Great pictures Rusty!

Very jealous, looks like you are having a blast!!!

 

[Super Bee]

RH. . . Very cool pictures. Looked like you had a great time.

The 70 Petty Superbird. I would still be standing there.

Rusty, how many people made the full pull?
