A few new toys we picked up recently. I know they are not perfect but should make some good winter projects. :)
The red and the silver are both factory 5 speed V-8 cars. They all run really good so minor appearance/interior improvements should make these fun to cruise in.

Too damn many. :)
Not sure to be honest we just keep adding em to the stables.
We have a few other makes/models but they aren't going to be posted or shown until we are completely through with them.

Man that would be awesome and we would do it in a heart beat if I thought anyone would actually show up. :)
Damn you pick up stangs fast don't ya.
Yeah for some reason every time someone finds a decent deal on a stang they have to tell me about it. My wife has threatened to have my cell number changed a few times. JK.
Yo Truegiant the shop is fairly clean now.

I have some old school muscle myself. A 66 f100 with a 428 cj and a 4 speed. I would bring it but it drinks WAY to much gas... As soon as I finish my wrx project and my new hatch project its up on the chopping block... literally ;)

We have several friends (kids) that have cars over here now building them as we go. If you really want a project then tell me what you want and let's get started already. All we need is a roller and your ideas to get started. We don't charge labor or anything and will be glad to help anyone build their project while you leave it here or take it home. It is a fun hobby that me and my son enjoy doing together while passing time so just say the word. :doh:

That 428CJ is worth a lil change ya know. I had an opportunity to purchase a 429 but the guy sold it before I could get to him.

I am thinking of pulling it out of the truck and building one of those factory five racing replicas with it... got to much on my plate right now but I plan on keeping that motor for a loooooooong time!

SO how do you feel about bringing nissans over?? :goodjob:

I hear ya on the full plate... Gets a little hairy here at times keeping up with all the parts/upgrade list.
I have been thinking of a A/C replica or maybe an Eleanor project for about a year or so now. If you decide to do something let me know your ideas, info because I am very close to buying a body/kit as we speak.

Well since we helped do a S2000 clutch a month or so ago I would say that we aren't that racist/prejudice. :) What do you have in mind?
P.S. Is there a worse clutch to do
other than the S2000? Wow that
was a learning experience.

Thanks man, Give us a month or so and I will post some updated pictures. I think that will be the first one that we play with unless the red LX gets in there first.

The 94-95 is going to take a lot more power to go faster at their weight.

Try doing a clutch in an Audi S4 or a Lexus IS300, makes the S2000 seem like childs play.
Nice "stable"

yeah i now there heavier, but if i picked up a fox, within 6 months it wouldnt be a DD period. If i was to get one, full fuel system, large injectors, brodrix heads, e-cam, header back exhuast system, tko-500, alum driveshaft, built 8.8 rear end, FULL suspension system, and then once all that broke in a d-1 procharger! :(
