My first car was a '67 XKE Jag Roadster with only 33,000 miles and perfect condition, I bought it from the original owner two weeks after I graduated from college and got my engineering job. I always wanted one so I did it.

95 v6 mustang... could not kill it untill my g/f drove it

gary · 05-07-2007, 11:41 AM

My first car!?

When custom was actually custom and you built a car with a sawzall and sweat. It wasn't all about speed nor was it about style. It was about how slow you could go and how many bitches you could pickup cruising A1A for hours and only going 2 miles. The 165.2db was nice too.

1983 Olds Omega

1969 mustang grande coupe

fun as hell

when i bought it
it had serious problems
i was 15 at the time and knew nothing about it
well i learned
tore apart the motor and trans
and had to weld in new floor pans and trunk pans and rear frame rails lol
now for the eingine stuff lol ok here it goes
fully ported and polished gt40 heads went on and were decked about 20 thousandths with 1.7 ratio full roller rockers from crane and crane cams triple core springs with titanium valves and threaded studs by ARP
blueprited and balanced bottom end with speed pro rings done by hagners automotive in collingswood
crane cam went in 493/484 lift at.050 and 310 315 split duration
105 lobe separation and forged pushords and new lifters
stock distributor with crane cams fireball system (pointless ignition)
msd 9 mm wires
edelbrock tourquer 2 aluminum intake
holly 670 cfm 4 barrel carb and a 250lph feul pump
edelbrock timing gears
ceramic coated tri-y headers and a custom 3 inch TRUE DUAL exhaust into flowmaster 40's
trans a c4 was rebuild with a mild shift kit and new bands linkage and a "saturday night special" high stall converter and all that good ish
stock rear with royal purple fluid and a b & m shifter
went 13.14 on mickey thompsons i dont remember any other specifics that was about 3 years ago
i was running 18 degrees of advance and i let my dad take it to work
87 octane + 18 degrees of advance = 3 cracked pistons and 4 bent rods
and now it sits all diss assembled in my garage lol
i miss that car but my dad gave me 4k for it and now its his mess lol

NOPSTNS · 05-07-2007, 01:45 PM

98 hyundai tiburon, the clutch went and i put in a 6 puc non sprung disc in it, god that thing grabbed so good u could chirp third at 3 thousand rpm....

but the engine would shake so hard when u hit the gear that the intake manifold slammed into the firewall at each shift! ran that thing at 7k rpm each day until 120k miles when i sold it last year. still runs to this day.....
