That would be a sleeper. It's funny, I hated that car growing up, but I just saw one the other day, and the lines aren't too bad. The size is a n bit smallish, so weight shouldn't be too bad. Aerodynamically not too bad either. I'd just drop it a bit, and put some nice wheels on there and surprise the **** out of everyone you come across.

he won't need tires. his car will have a jet engine in the back and it will fly. the wings will pop out whenever he hits the 700 shot of NOS and it will take off and land like a harrier (sp?) jet.

you said you had already bought this 6.0 you brick. i guess it would be hard to fit the 6.0 and the 8.1 and the f-15 jet engine all in the same truck. were you going to make up a way to install headers on a jet engine as well? were you going to sit there and cry to your momma cause we catch you in so many <img border="0" alt="[bullshit]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_bs.gif" /> stories. hihodildo of to-work-we-go you are so full of it. you are a joke in the truck section. but we like having you around so we can get a laugh out of all your <img border="0" alt="[bullshit]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_bs.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
