WTF is this? Home-made Hood Scoop lol So I was driving home from the gym yesterday on 316 when this Camaro pulls up along side. I couldn't help but laugh at it's 'hood scoop' which seemed home-made, welded right on top of the hood... Honestly, it almost looked like a birdhouse sitting on top of the hood of the car.
To make matters worse, not only that... He also had stickers on his fender, sadly my phone camera didn't catch the bottom two stickers, the most memorable one being an 'edelbrock' sticker that was extremely crooked, not centered with the others, wrapping around the front of the fender. Looked like a 5 year old put the things on there...
Why do ppl do such things??? Granted I'm all about doing what you like (my car itself is not one of those 'dime a dozen') but damn, at least put effort into the $hit...

WTF is that POS..
..on his hood.. 
..from the discription I was goinna give him some points for creativity...but that structure on his hood is just way too fugly to qualify for any kind of creativity points...you can't tell if it is mounted upside down or not.. ..either way it would be phuched...and let this be a lesson to all of you out there...do not get $hitfaced and then attempt to place decals on your car...to begin with they reak of... 
...this guy must be doing some good $hit mang... 
... 
..We need to give brotha Dre a round of applaus for sharing this piece of "technology" with the crew...

Big credit to you Dre, i would have been laughing TOO hard to take a pic with my camera phone.
Did you taunt him with a rev?
Those stickers might have given you a run for your money!

Me and Jason switched the T-Stat to a 160* and inspected everything for leaks. Found a small one in one of the hoses and fixed it. But still having problems with running hot & overflowing off the reservoir. Haven't taken it to Ken's shop to check for exhaust gases in the radiator fluid yet, but pretty much all signs point to a blown head gasket so far.
Gonna order the parts next week probably and work on it shortly afterwards...
She'll be 100% after that
