Why stop with a shaker scoop? You could fix the doors so they don't open and paint a big Rebel flag on the roof.

Heck...find yourself a big pile of dirt and you can do jumps just like the General Lee!!!!

Heck no!!! Ya'll are just overreactin'! I reckon I like them thar hillbilly mods a bunch. Ya'll might even want to snip some wires in your eeeelektrikal system and re-connect them with pretty blue and red crimp-on connectors. Might even want to change your forum nicknames to Bubba 1 and Bubba 2, etc. Hells bells...why mess with a tiny Mustang scoop when you can still get a gigantic Mopar Six Pack scoop that runs across the whole hood!!!!! Just make sure it's turned BACKWARDS. And be sure to have all 4 wheels on the Vette painted a different color too. And the one item you MUST have....a horn like the General Lee that plays Dixie.

Sorry Dep, I forgot that no one is entitled to an opinion unless it's the same as yours. Have you ever thought of adding "in my opinion" when you say something or do you get a kick out of ridiculing people when they say something that you disagree with? Is it because you're "re-tahd" and can't book anyone for speeding any more that you down everyone in flames in here?

I see a CA plate. You'll not get that car through legitimate emissions testing.

Now wait a second. How would you know the exact website to get spinner kits if you yourself had not been exploring the idea to begin with?

It's a complex device that few on here have mastered. It took many years of training by Monks in Thailand and even more years of pratical experience before I learned it's intricacies...

www.google.com

For a price, I can train YOU on how to use this complex search tool.

Sorry mate, I'm not sure I follow you. Why would a scoop on the carby effect legitimate emission testing?

What's a complex device??? What intricacies??? There is only ONE tool in this particular post 'n juss mebbe it's the 'ole re-tahd Silver City deptuy dawg. That smacks of the sort of thing a loud mouth would say when put on the spot!

So, wassup Boss Hog, got the $hits cos you wouldn't know photoshop from a re-tahd depyotee stah or you just don't like scoops in general? Maybe you should just post a list of things you agree with/like/dislike and save us all the trouble of posting anything ever again!

Just a thought...

saudivette: Let me clue you in...not EVERYONE has to LIKE what people do to their cars. Disagreement and even some kidding around IS permitted on here.
I'm gonna do you a BIG favor. I am NOT going to report your name calling, censor-bypassing, and violation of forum policy by posting that finger smiley. But you better get control of yourself or you are going to be warming the bench for a few weeks. Just a friendly word of advice from RoboDep.
Oh yeah...contributing to the forum does NOT give you permnissiuon to bypass or ignore the rules.

Thanks for the heads up but I pretty much worked out for myself that not EVERYONE has to LIKE what people do to their cars and while disagreement and some kidding around is obviously normal, YOUR replys are sarcastic and extremely demeaning whenever someone posts a comment or picture that you disagree with.

Thanks too for the BIG favor and not reporting me but by your own statement

I know that contributing to the forum does NOT give me permnissiuon (or permission) to bypass or ignore the rules. As for the name calling, I don't follow you I was only playing along with the "hillbilly" "Bubba 1, Bubba 2" and "General Lee" theme that you started. I think you need to lighten up and see the responses in the same light that you post yours as (again) "some kidding around IS permitted on here"

I do now, however, consider myself well and truly "clued in". Thanks...

I think that would qualify as a personal attack or name calling.


Man I wish I could spend more time on this forum.

re-tahd = retired

Name calling would be if I'd used "retard"

Ahha, but did you notice the grammar?

the word you're is short for you are so my question reads the same as "is it because you are retired". If I was making a personal attack or name calling by accusing him of being mentally challenged, I would have had to use an "a" in there, as in "is it because you're a re-tahd"

Sorry for the confusion... Let's get back to scoops
