Ni

This was meant to be a fun thread.
Leave it to you dick heads to drag it into the dark side.
Cranky old farts.

People saying stupid stuff is more memorable.

“Why does your speedo go to 150”. “Nice looking GTO” - that’s the one I hate the most!

I have had to explain that a GTO is a Pontiac. And a GTX is a Plymouth on more than one occasion.

 

[Cojohnso1]

I had a kid looking at my GTX. When his dad walked up and told him. "Mopar, No power." I smiled and said to both. "Tell that to John Force."

 

[chargervert]

Ford and John Force pained their Hemi engines Ford blue and put Ford logo's on the valve covers and tried to pass the Hemi off as a Ford designed engine. They even put parts for Hemi engines in their parts catalogs! They tried to say the redeigned the "current top fuel engines "

He knows the truth. The Keith Black stage hemi is still based from Chrysler. I believe all are? The dead give away is where they place their dual magnetos? Right where Chrysler placed the BB distributor.

It's got a 3/4 race cam in it....

 

[Cojohnso1]

It's got a 3/4 race cam in it....

Lol. I to this day do not completely know what that means? And why is always 3/4?

 

[kiwigtx]

Lol. I to this day do not completely know what that means? And why is always 3/4?

Because a 5/16 cam won't win races.

 

[Hemirunner]

It's got a 3/4 race cam in it....

The half race cam was .500” lift at the valve, the 3/4 race cam was .750 and the full race cam was an inch!! Lol

 

[Fran Blacker]

Remember those ads. JC Whitney especially .

That is some real optimism. .750" is only 3/4 Race? I once thought that maybe talking duration? 3/4 of 360 is 270. But that made less sense.

It's got a 3/4 race cam in it....

...And it's purple colored....

Nice Malibu or nice Chevelle

---------------------------------------------------------------
my favorites;
"build them, how you want them, drive them, like you stole them,
who cares what other people think anyway"

not all cars are the same, thank god

------------------------------------------------------------------

Wannabe vin & fender tag readers & negative people,
knowitall's that don't really know much, but act like they do, are the worst
that usually don't even have a car, but they are an expert

I quit attending or taking cars to shows decades ago,
for many of the reasons mentioned before

I was always at the track, where most people where "pretty cool"
I like an event & a something to do,
other than just sitting around or talking

but I do respect all the work that goes into most of them
even all the Brand X stuff

----------------------------------------------------------------

my car really confuses a bunch of people
if they're polite & not an asshole, I'll explain or answer questions
otherwise I don't care, what other people think, laugh at most

"Wait till they get a load of me...…"

 

[JimKueneman]

Kaelyn's Duster got called a "Dodge Duster" more than once at the last show!

 

[6PKRTSE]

Don't forget pink rods or camel back heads.....

I like how everyone these days claim it runs 9's also. In the 1/8 maybe on those street radials.

If you had a hemi built by Ed Pink would it be a Pink Elephant?

 

[Kern Dog]
