DO they wear their pants below the waist?

 

Maybe we should send them some gold chains...

 

So I guess it is to late to get added to your will

 

My dad had a 65 327/4 speed Vette, I got to drive that one, But when I was to young to drive he had a 71 454 ,Chrome sidepipes. This thing would be worth 6 figures now. I always thought the later Mustangs were cool. But I am on my 3rd vette now .

 

..Self Esteem

 

only mustangs I thought were fun to drive were the mid 80s 5.0s

Try not to drive the new ones guarantee they are a blast

Had a frame off 65...that was THE worst driving/handling/stopping car Ive ever driven period. first rate pile all the way around (pretty pile though)
Traded it for a K5 blazer

 

LOL...Wish I could say that. When I was born the Corvette name didn't even exist.

 

You may have taken that the wrong way I don't have a 57. I was implying I'll be driving abdo's 57 when he is gone.

In all truth, I have a friend who is a family friend of sorts who has a 59, 94 Corvettes. I've worked on both quite a bit. The 59 is SO simple its stupid.

Truth be told, I like or at least appropriate ALL cars. Even the import crowd. Many of those cars are pretty neat/FAST. I REALLY like the Subaru BRZ/Scion FRS twins. Mostly sports cars for imports Asian/European alike.

Don't knock the new Mustang 5.0. Those things run like raped ape. WOW. They pull hard on the top end from 4-7K. I was impressed.

 

Yeah, my 93 gets flogged, but she seems to enjoy it.
Truth be told, I maintain that car better than most anyone else. I go WAY above and beyond on things. I keep it clean, I hate dirty cars.
Running your Corvette like Duntov intended and beating it to death are TWO entirely different things.

I tell people what I do with the car and they think I'm lying. I have pictures to prove them wrong, video too.

 

HI,

I am your long lost grandson you didn't know you had but always wanted... I love Corvettes!! PM me about that will

 

I'm 18 also, and I'd love to have older Vettes! I've driven C5's and C6's, and I'd much rather have a C4 or older. There's just something about the older generations. I'd give up limbs to have a C1 or C2. Never driven one though, only a handful of C3's but I'd imagine they'd cruise along right nice.

 

Yeah I love using mine on mountain roads. I definitely am rusty though, my trail braking sucked pretty hard yesterday

I got her back from the shop yesterday so I decided to take her up the mountains to make sure she's sorted.

She's still a hair down on power I think, but there's a couple of things it can be, before I go after those notorious to fail due to ethanol fueled 89 injectors. It's only slow on the initial hit, so I think it's a mass air, or pcv valve issue (getting the valve and a new line today)

From 30 to sixty it hauls *** leaving the shop I caught myself doing 60 in a 35, it's running that much better. (Swapped out the old 305 TPI intake manifold when I got the gasket job done. She's got an Edelbrock on her now. The intake was definitely one of her biggest issues... the factory one is so stained it's not even funny and it's not losing a lick of coolant now. First time in about 8 months where I -don't- hear coolant dripping onto the pipes after I get out of the car )

I also have a bad injector wire so I'm swapping and splicing that in from my 85 today assuming they have the same wiring and injector hookups.

Today I'm going to swap that injector pig tail, do the pcv valve, and I think I'm finally going to remove ''the Frisbee''

Beautiful day yesterday to drive though. Didn't get any pics cause the leaves aren't on the trees yet. But man it was nice getting the old L98's legs stretched and diving through switch back corners. They recommended 20 for the corners.. did em at 45 (entry. 40 mid point and exit loooots of decreasing radius corners up there) and didn't bark a tire

If you're babyin it you're doin it wrong!

 

Yeah, my dad and I are the Corvette owners in my family. The Mustang owner? My little sister. She had two of them and now drives a Kia. Chew on that, grand kids.

 

Take them for a Saturday drive. Tell them to watch the ladies, of all ages, stop and stare. I wish I could excite my wife the way your three would.
