Default My new ride

The Vette was boring. So I sold it and bought this to fill in til I get my C6. You all know I have to go big with whatever I get. Its a 1974 with a 304 AMC V8. Dana 44 rear, 30 front, lockers, 35s, And the wife needs a step ladder so she can get in. LOL Its noisy and big, just like I like it.

It is to clean, you need to keep it dirty.

I keep getting the urge to go drive through the woods. It is very hard to keep it on the road, oh wait, is that from the 3" wheelbase and 300 horsepower. Either way I get the urge all the time. It will not stay clean like that for long, trust me. You guys should have seen my Landrover when I had it. LOL

It was slow, it was white, it was quiet, it handled poorly, and it was automatic. Totally boring. I need a ZR1 or a Z06. Or at least a convertible C5. The Jeep is noisy, uncomfortable, stick shift, and it is just damn fun.
