i dont hate on the classics... except for GTOs... and roadrunners with that rediculous wing lol

CHAOS 10-08-2009 09:31 AM

lol. classic muscle cars are usually awful at everything besides feeling nostaligic. theyre usually slow, heavy and dont handle for ****.

Before he bought the GTO brand new, he had a '69 Camaro SS, he put a rod through the block and sold it. I was like WTF dad haha

This is true, but the fact that its that old and resored or kept in good shape is cool for that reason alone. And you don't see them on the road everyday either.

Foolinaround 10-08-2009 09:44 AM

i love road runners cause my dad had one.

HickRocket1258 10-08-2009 09:46 AM

That is true sir. We don't mess around with our ****. All motor, it's the fastest car on this site. But I don't want to make that a whole mess.

sleeperSL2 10-08-2009 09:49 AM

My dad does want to eventually have it torn down and brought back to new. freshen up the motor, paint and everything. but he's not sure where to take it or how to go about doing that. hes very particular with his cars haha. he'd do it himself but pushin 60, he's not testing himself haha

Oh come on. My dad is 60 years old, still drag racing and still working on his own ****. It's not about age, it's about determination haha. Oh and if you were to ever see his camaro, you would see that he is very clean and particular with his wiring.

sleeperSL2 10-08-2009 09:51 AM

Well, i understand that but he has some health problems and what not..so yeah.

Elliott18t 10-08-2009 09:52 AM

Sorry to hear that. I could see that being a problem.

sleeperSL2 10-08-2009 09:56 AM

It's cool. He almost had his legs amputated back in the day, literally told the doctor FU im getting a second opinion, he did, was prescribed some meds, still has both haha.

anywho, if i was more mechanically savvy i'd take on the task..but not so much haha

CHAOS 10-08-2009 09:58 AM

IMO working on cars is easy, as long as you have the knowledge. and you are small lol. my bear paw hands make certain things impossible.

I hear ya. I'm not mechanically savy like my dad. He is very knowledgeable. I wish he would spend the time to help me with some of my own things and he could teach me more.

I hear you on that John. No one in my family is small between my bro, dad and I. Kind of tough at times.

This is the camaro that my dad has. My brother is lucky so far being able to run it at times. It will be passed to one of us one day, but I'd probably just let me brother have it.
