Where did you and your car go today

[BSB67]

That was perfectly executed and it's no secret you know where your cars sweet stop is!! Well done and thanks for sharing.

Thanks. Still working on it. My last 4-speed was a 383 car that would hang-on to 7000 rpm. This thing falls off a cliff at 6000.

Me too !

Hate this stretch of road, too straight, too flat, too tempting

If you bought any pvc from Lowe’s or Home Depot , chances are it’s from cantex , which means it came from right here

Nice. This is what my X is for……driving frequently. Made it to work and doctor’s appointment this week.

We have a Cantex mold plant here, too.
Kinda small, but about three to five hoppers of pellets a week go in and trailers loaded with 10" sticks of electrical conduit go out.
They just recently built the newly mandated wire attachment rig where they unload the cars.

My old Viper was perfect in second gear at 2500 rpms. Anyone pulling alongside of it in that sweet spot was done. Hold it down and never shift, they were in my rearview mirror, nothing to prove at that point. Put in the clutch and put it in four and idle on.

Pretty color.

 

[Hey-O]

Pretty color.

The wheels, wheel well lip and rocker trim help with that, they pull it all together. It's a bitchin ride. Well done!

This GTX reminds me of the one I missed out on so many years ago. It belonged to a fellow I worked with. It was a 10 year old car and he was no longer driving it, so I offered to buy it, and he said O.K. He later had to back out of the deal because his wife's brother also wanted it. This guy never really did anything with it, except drive it. Over the years, I had to watch it deteriorate to the point that it eventually became a parts car. Very sad. I have always liked that light blue metallic on a 1967 GTX. I now have a 1967 R/T, but I don't think that colour works as well on them.

It's always about coordinating what you have. One piece pulling the rest together. That car was done in good taste, in my opinion.

 

[BSB67]

Thanks for the kind words guys.

I was not looking for this car when I bought it. My criteria were 4sp, decent curb appeal, no-regret driver. Really thought it would be an A Body car. It was a “I’ll know it when I see it” thing.

It was the look that sucked me in I think for the reasons Hey-O stated. But make no mistake about it, it is a no-regret driver.

Went from the shop to home, and then to work a few times.

I have more than a complete extra set of Dakota R/T wheels.
One of these days I'm gonna paint 4 of them "body color".
(Along with that cap, the new rear bumper, the front bumper, my pursuit 360 hood, and pretty much the rest of the truck)

Off to work on Another wonderful rainy day , and some Marty Robbins

I think we’ve only had a couple dry days in the last 2 weeks

I drove my red Challenger to the local cruise and parked next to my buddy's purple 70. It is cool to see all the differences between the same model year.
