Willa was some young kid who always said goofy things. He claimed to own a C5 but neve could prove it. He finally took a photo with someone else's C5 and this started a thread titled "Where's Willa" People were putting pics of Willa everywhere. Evey Troy put him in the CF logo at the top of the page. I think he was finally banned for inappropriate language.

You'll get the pics 1st thing monday crazy cooter. The rear differential has to be jacked up to be put on the rack. As far as why I have it so low, personal decision. Just like your truck tires on those beautiful rims :lol:

I'm thinking this is going to be a let down when we do see the pics (no pun intened). The man has a typically lowered car with the wrong filter on it. End of story.

BUT!!!! this has been a fun thread, bring on the pics :yesnod:
I don't know. He said the back tires are tucked underneath the car.
That has to be more than a "typically lowered car".
I can't wait to see this thing.... :yesnod: :yesnod:

Jim, Rick, Quinn,
Have you guys seen that white coupe around at shows or a cruise-in?
It's on air bags and will drop to the freakin' ground. He also pulls a white
trailer (with the vette) that is on bags as well. The trailer carries a white harley. (not on bags.......yet:eek:)
I think he is running 20's & 19's also.

In the end, he made some very inappropriate remarks related to 9-11, then he started bashing Forum members. That got him banned.

Hey, do you guys remember the one about how he wanted to know what the big blue button was for on the bottom of his Vette?

And the obvious question is:

What kind of oil filter is on the car? It _MAY_ be possible that during the last oil change the filter was replaced with a longer unit that protrudes farther downward than is healthy.

As for the filter relocation kit, I have seen one on a car. It was a M/Y z06 that was over at MTI. It had a diff cooler, a BeCool radiator, and a filter relocation kit. The filter was mounted sideways right behind the raditor shroud at the bottom of the car. I wish I had gotten a digital pic. You might call MTI, I am sure they know who's kit is it is. It looked like a nice piece, and it allowed you to use a real filter like a PF35 or a PF1218

I think he's telling the truth...one time I saw a guy at a vette show and his car was so low..."How low was it?".....It was so low that his back pockets were worn off. :lol: :jester
