June 24, 200619 yr Author A guy in Lowell MA has a clean low milage 1989 9C1 in burgundy, the car has low miles and a few performance add-ons but it's got a lot of rot around the rear wheelwells. He wants like $6000 for it but if he had been realistic and asked like $2300 I would have bought it. We worked togeather at Chevrolet of Lowell, he was actaully one of the best mechanics there if not THE best. At one point in the early 90s he got a job offer from Callaway in Conn.
June 24, 200619 yr thats actully a deal. since mine being a 305 and around 80,000 miles fresh repaint, but bad bodywork, beaten interior. Excellent mechanical i can get easily $4k for it. I have A/C Crusie Control and AM/FM Radio No Cassette. No power windows or locks or seats.
June 24, 200619 yr Author If there weren't rust bubbles all over the rear quarters & holes in the rear wheel well lips I'd say it was ALL the money for this car... it's nice but it's not mint or anything. Then again I'm a picky bastard since I bought a solid Fleetwood Broughams for $650 and XP scored a 1979 red-on-white-on-white Coupe DeVille for $300. So a 1989 Caprice Classic for $6000 better still have plastic on the seats & less than 20,000 miles on the odometer.

June 26, 200619 yr Author http://www.veoh.com/videoDetails.html?v=e85456p2znpMRm I'm not a Republican but I'm definately NOT a Democrat either... I thought I'd share this not for political reasons but just because it's a funny attempt at humor, or perhaps a serious commentary that's desguised as a joke. Either way "I don't care who you are, that's funny right there...!" [/L.C.G.]
June 29, 200619 yr Who is this crack head in this Caprice i wonder....... http://s13.photobucket.com/albums/a271/Cap...HPIM0411MPG.flv Edited June 29, 200619 yr by capriceman
June 29, 200619 yr Me bieng a retard in some curves yes its stupid since i have some bald ass tires. Man Photo bucket ruins the quailty but I was doing 70 when that van decided to pull out. http://s13.photobucket.com/albums/a271/Cap...HPIM0398MPG.flv
July 1, 200619 yr Author That second one is like sceene from some video game. Love to see that Caprice H.O. floating down the road on that long hood... like the mascot on the front of a "Tall Ship".
July 1, 200619 yr Fly said that reminded him of a episode of COPS. But if care i have a couple more http://s13.photobucket.com/albums/a271/Cap...HPIM0401MPG.flv thats just some accel coming out of a turnaround. http://s13.photobucket.com/albums/a271/Cap...HPIM0394MPG.flv Coming out of a parking lot first time testing the camera feature out on my new digital camera. Listen to the sweet song lol http://s13.photobucket.com/albums/a271/Cap...HPIM0408MPG.flv I try to do some sliding but photobucket ruined the quality so much. then do a minor burnout then go around a corner and my Fuzz buster goes off. Again sweet music.
July 1, 200619 yr In the future i want to put a 350 in it so bad. This car is like my GTO its my style smooth ride and power. It takes corners good too.
July 1, 200619 yr Author Sounds pretty potent for a 305, how fresh is that paint? Looks like a mirror, I love sunset shots.
July 1, 200619 yr The paint is from last November. It makes me wonder sometime if this is a stock 305 too.
July 1, 200619 yr I like Datsuns & I like Camaros but this botched abortion is just gross! http://newengland-motorsports.com/forums/s...ed=1#post304941 That is an abomination and the owner should be hanged.

July 6, 200619 yr Author Coolest Japanese car in the history of the world! http://i6.tinypic.com/1z3w8rc.jpg I wonder what weighs more...? the Bondo in the rear 1/4s or the metal that is left on this obomination, motor & trans. combined. Edited July 6, 200619 yr by Sixty8panther

July 9, 200619 yr Author That's a spy pic of the next generation Honduh Element... 163541[/snapback] Still better looking that the REAL Element. [/dead serious]
July 13, 200619 yr Author This is one of the craziest things I've ever seen in my life I think the Hoffer is cool but he's a little of his rocker too. Love the right hand drive KITT. http://video.google.com/googleplayer.swf?d...491587979249836 --------
July 13, 200619 yr Author So I'm looking up Lincoln Mk VIIIs for deftonesfan and I come across this: http://www.worldwidearmor.com/for_sale_28.html An armored (to the hilt) 1996 Lincoln MkVIII in Arizona. I love the car and would love to own something like this but the car is $41,000 firm! Then I noticed a few crimes against the Automotive world: Bad: Worse:
July 13, 200619 yr 1974 Chevrolet Opala from Brazil. It looks like it has Opel lines. Opel plus Impala equals 'Opala'?
July 14, 200619 yr The thing looks Aussie to me... Where have you been, Harley? I've missed your buttocks.
July 14, 200619 yr Hey ocnblu......thanks for the sentiment...I missed yours too! You are right, it does seem more Aussie. I had never heard of the Opala before. Here is the Opala SS: Edited July 14, 200619 yr by HarleyEarl
July 14, 200619 yr In the above ad... what the heck is the point of the photo of the Opala in the tall weeds (top right)? Hehehe... it made me laugh out loud. You can't even see the damned car!
July 14, 200619 yr The Weeds Connection: they probably were trying to create a stealthy enigma. Hush, it's a Chevrolet Opala...shhh...so hip, so cool. I love old ads like this!
July 14, 200619 yr Author XP715: Check it out Mofo! Look: http://phoenix.craigslist.org/car/181799407.html Do the right thing! :AH-HA_wink: yes it's a hardtop: (front) http://images.kodakgallery.com/servlet/Ima...7_0_BG.jpg?a=32 back: http://images.kodakgallery.com/servlet/Ima...7_0_BG.jpg?a=32 455: http://images.kodakgallery.com/servlet/Ima...7_0_BG.jpg?a=91 crazy, funky 1970s interior: http://images.kodakgallery.com/servlet/Ima...7_0_BG.jpg?a=74 Edited July 14, 200619 yr by Sixty8panther
July 14, 200619 yr Author Opala... LOL, AND It's a hadrtop! Edited July 14, 200619 yr by Sixty8panther
July 15, 200619 yr Author Yeah, that's a classic... it's been on everything from Break.com (bigboys.com) & ebaumsworld.com.
July 15, 200619 yr Author Silly video of Kids acting stupid.... but check out the two "classic" Buicks. http://video.tinypic.com/player.php?v=1zdm44z
July 15, 200619 yr THAT'S YOUR '59 BUICK! Balthy... is that your car in the rear 3/4 view sketch above? I see the smoothy hubcaps and the fat duals poking through the valance.
July 16, 200619 yr Well, I did draw it back when I started the project, so yes. Dreaming: block-sanded primer & Nitro-Stan in the scratches and out on the road, chasing down mercedes' & BMWs. I was originally going with speed discs and flamethrowers, but those details have been out for quite some time. In fact I am going to sell the speed discs I've been storing in their boxes from JC Whitney for over 10 years, tho I still do dream of flamethrowers...
July 16, 200619 yr Author Balthy: 1. Wait until a riced out Civic pulls up behind you in heavy traffic 2. Turn on Flamethrower for about 17 seconds 3. Take digital photo of Civic with $1500 worth of melted body kit. 4. Repeat as necessary
July 16, 200619 yr Shouldn't that pic be in "The Other Guys" section under the headline "New Tundra Revealed!"?
July 16, 200619 yr Author Shouldn't that pic be in "The Other Guys" section under the headline "New Tundra Revealed!"? 167417[/snapback] That is way more refined, masculine & clean in design than any Tundra.
July 16, 200619 yr Author Fly: ever see this photo? Talk about one of the cooest Aviation photos ever taken. http://www.the-rodgers.com/images/Tbird%20eject.jpg
July 16, 200619 yr That's cool, but this is cooler... That's a Russian Sukhoi Su-30 flying level at approximately 1 meter off the deck at a Chinese air show. Not photoshopped, not doctored, its legit. The pilot, Anatoliy Kvochur, is the same one who ejected from a MiG-29 milliseconds before it hit the ground in that infamous video clip. Great skill, great planes, just awesome. Can't make fun of the Russians after seeing that.
July 21, 200619 yr Author I have a feeling Fly made this: http://www.neatorama.com/images/2006-03/ai...arrier-lego.jpg
July 22, 200619 yr Author I'm not replying to the CTS poll untill someone adds: "two door PILLARLESS HARDTOP version" Actaully I CAN'T reply ot that thread but I meant to say I'm not voting.
July 22, 200619 yr When Cadillac or Buick bring back a pillarless 2-door hardtop, I will literally go outside and dance in the streets. Mercedes has brought back this very American style. Something still so sexy about a hardtop coupe with all the windows down on a summer's day.
July 24, 200619 yr can anyone top these? or this the game is called LFS or Live For Speed you can get the trail from www.liveforspeed.com it comes with 3 cars a FWD 3 door and two rwd coupes one turboed. and a fun entertaining track. the Crack that i have will enable all tracks and all cars so if you want i can get you the crack. Very realistic. and has a funcutional clucth button!!

Something still so sexy about a hardtop coupe with all the windows down on a summer's day. 169827[/snapback] If I'm not mistaken Mercedes has had continuous production of at least one two door hardtop for like 40 years now... if they missed a year or two it's still a lot better than GM that gave up on Hardtops all togeather in 1976. ----------- What kind of Muscle Car are YOU? http://quiz.myyearbook.com/zenhex/quiz.php?id=42988 I'm a 1972 Chevelle SS454 http://img.myyearbook.com/zenhex/images/quiz9/42988/res2.jpg Edited July 25, 200619 yr by Sixty8panther
July 25, 200619 yr Author WWII fascinates me. I hope to God Sofia will not see a World War. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4rS0AEhPXVk&NR http://www3.youtube.com/watch?v=LqH_WEqNK5...related&search=
July 25, 200619 yr Yeah, well, GM may have given up on hardtops, but Mercedes gave up on being Mercedes about fifteen years ago. They can make a hardtop A-Class if they want, I don't care; can't be anymore unsafe than the original A, anyway.
July 25, 200619 yr Oooh-I'm a 1968 Camaro Z28! You are a 1968 Chevrolet Camaro Z28. You love your car....your friends love your car and thats whats most important to you! Your car really hauls ass! You feel bad that they aren't making Camaros anymore....but don't worry...cuz you know they'll be back!
