The Official Hot Rod Thread

[MuttX7]

Come on CM, that would make a perfect INGO hot rod. Can we please? Please?!

A quick search with Google shows a kidney can go for anywhere from $150,000 to $262,000. You just need to find the black market where you can sell yours.

Depends. What's your skill set? A little knowledge and a good gun can make a complete amateur look good. Cost would depend on the materials used and the time it takes to do it. If it's a daily driver it could prolly be done pretty cheap.

"Good" gun....."clean" air supply.

I don't recall the rules in the classies stating anything about selling body parts.

Not a horrible price...depending on the mechanics of the car, I suppose. Wonder if the SC was maintained as it should've been?

Most likely not. I know none of the ones that were in my family were... I suggested to my dad one time that we should do it, he blew it off... Oh well, never had any issues and never really heard of many people actually servicing them.

Exactly why I brought it up! heh.

Yeah, but it has tinted taillights and headlight covers!

Sheesh. I always want to ask how much they knocked OFF the price for having that crap on the car. I know. I know. When I was a kid hopping up my cars the parents thought we were stupid. But I pretty much did functional stuff with few things for aesthetics. Wheels and tires mostly. But then again, you could argue that wheels and tires were also functional.

I would agree. I'm also a performance over asthetics guy. I wouldn't have blacked out the lights, but man, that car's got the look.

I actually think that's great idea for this group. I'd be more than willing to offer my eyes to someone here if there is anything that catches your fancy. I'm a picky mother ****er, so I look them over well.

I've never understood the headlight covers.... Stupid. I've tinted plenty of tail lights over the years, for OTHER people. I wouldn't do it to mine. When I do them, I do just enough to take the edge off, but not dark enough that most would notice. Then the secret is to clear coat them after, then they look slick as ****.

Ummmmm..... That's not stock.

We had two "race cars" in this week, both with clutch problems. One needed a new clutch kit, the other a new slave cylinder. Both were driven daily by older guys in their 60's. Anyone want to guess what kind of car both were ( the same make of cars, one was just newer than the other)? I will give you a hint. I don't think Rusty or Churchmouse either one would be caught cruising in one.

I know! Ford Mavericks!

What do I win?

 

[ChristianPatriot]

Gremlins

Corvettes.

Gremlins

When I was in grade school, the brothers who owned the nearby Shell station (they still worked on cars back then) had a purple Gremlin with a huge engine that they raced at the drag strip in Clermont (and probably elsewhere less . . . formally). It was always on a trailer there.

 

[RustyHornet]

You'd be surprised what I'd drive.... Older guys in their 60s driving "race" cars. I'm gonna go wth the British sports car type, so a Miata!
