Default be careful

When I was 17 or 18 I had a Hemi charger, and a 440magnum challenger within a year of the other. It had none of the safety brakeing and othher thing we hqvw in our modern cars. I never git attested or ina acident. a wreck or arrested. We should be able to handle these cars aabd be safe. be safe everybody, we have a kot of stuff, and a 17 tear old hekd it together with my gas and brake pedales.
be safe.
This an old shot of the cgarger, 425HP out of thr box, and that was cinsidered a consirvid estament.

It had a 456 rear which hepl make it go fsst.

If you look clode you can see the 426 Hemi badge on the door.i

It just goes to show that anyone can own a C5...
Steven "When you were 17"???? did you go to school???? Your thread looks like it came from a 10 year old...
The content, spelling , and grammar are unbelievable...
Here is a true example of the product of his parents drug abuse from the 60"s.
I am sorry, that post gave me so much pain I had to reciprocate, I feel bad but I had to vent
