Re: Ford Mustang VS Chevy Camaro
When I was in high school in 19(cough cough) everyone had a mustang or a camaro. So I opted for something different - a 1970 AMC Javelin. It was bright orange with a Starsky and Hutch stripe. Mild lift cam, high rise manifold, rochester quadra-jet, headers, and a custom tuck and roll interior. All of those items and the year of the car should tell you I am an old man - but it got a lot of looks back then because it was very different from everything else out there. Sold it to buy a motorcycle - go figure :)

Re: Ford Mustang VS Chevy Camaro
Yo Corsair,AMC'S where kool back then,my Grandparents had two of them!
I myself was into the pacer:rolleyes: Always wanted to see what would happen if you put some horse power under the hood of one of them. Then slam some 10" wrinkle walls on er & dump the clutch at 3000 rpms.I'de bet every piece of glass would blow out out of it! Anyhow,sorry to here you have to live with that childhood memory!:D Look at the bright side!At least it wasn't a beetle!:cool: FGD |
Re: Ford Mustang VS Chevy Camaro
my first car was a beetle
picture this when it was given to me, it was still in the original paint factory paint was "PINK"!!!!!!!!!!!! i refused to drive it as is called a tow truck and had it hauled to the VW shop stock 1600 dual port was dropped out in favor of a custom built race engine once the engine was done and shoehorned in(was alot bigger than the original) i had it towed to a body shop repainted it tu-toned black and red THEN i drove it home man it was fast installed race tires and talk about traction for an econo car it was a fun lil car and got alot of attention including the cops that enjoyed seeing the front wheels lift at the traffic lights if i had money to burn, i would build up another one exactly like my first one |
Re: Ford Mustang VS Chevy Camaro

Re: Ford Mustang VS Chevy Camaro
Derailed,i didn't mean I didn't like bugs,Just don't like them on the road.:D
I had quit a few of them.Just used them in a better style.All's you need is a set of tourches,chop saw,arc welder,some 2'black pipe,& some angle steel.It's also better if you have a good hydraulic bender, didn't have one,so I cut the pipe on 45. Had one I shorted 14",Now that mother was fun!:D I was always amazed at how much power you could get out of that little 4 banger. Derailed if you get another one,I here Spudds shop will replace the water pump at a good price! Don't forgit,it's the only shop I know of that offers this service!:D FGD |

Re: Ford VS Chevy.
To all the Chevy lovers the new SLP Camaro has blown 427 small block 750 HP and turns 11.80 with street tires and with slicks it will run in the 10's not bad for a car you can buy from a dealer and run these numbers. Now got 100,000.00 + dollars? Ed

Re: Ford VS Chevy.Now Spudd roast!

Re: Ford VS Chevy.Now Spudd roast!
i used to play a joke on all the gas stations when i had my bug
i'd pull in at the full serve guy would run up and ask"filler up?" i'd say sure he goes to the pump grabs the nozzle and look for the door at my rear quarter panel he would get confused and look on the other side thinking i was on the wrong side i'd point out its in the front quarter he starts pumping gas then asks to check the oil i simply say sure it took me everything not to laugh he goes to the front and tries to open the front points and says"locked" i hit the release and he opens the lid after a few seconds, the deck lowers and he looks confused comes around to the drivers door with an odd look looks at me,asking"there's no engine" i look at him with a confused look" there's no engine?" seriously looking at me" no engine, but your spare tire is there where the engine should be" i just look at him with a puzzled look look at the odometer a sec then i reply" oh that's ok, there's a spare in the back" the look on the attendants face is priceless! lol |
Re: Ford VS Chevy.Now Spudd roast!
One of our members (td9clyde) has a diesel engine with spark plugs wires cap and rotor and it came from the factory that way. Now if you think I am pulling your leg just ask him.

Re: Ford VS Chevy.Now Spudd roast!
Got it covered..... Just for you
|
Re: Ford VS Chevy.Now Spudd roast!
Not to divert from breakin Spudds girls.But have you boys ever seen the old John Deere tractors that had two fuel tanks on them? You would start them on gas,close the air finns on the radiator,bring them up to temp then switch them over to diesel or heating oil.The whole tractor would shake till it got used to runnin on diesel.Man the differance in power & just the sound was unreal. If you stalled it while burnin diesel,you would flip them back to gas,open the drain on carb till only gas came out. Then grab the flywheel & hope like **** all the diesel was gone so it didn't ripe your fingers off when you spun the flywheel to start them. That was the only engine I saw that ran diesel through a carb. If you were really workin it for a long time & went to shut it off by killin the spark,it would just keep runnin like you didn't do a thing. You would have to switch back to gas,let it run for a bit.Then kill the spark.
Just wondered if any of you boys ever seen this set up before? Spudd,sorry I don't have nothin at this time to break on you over. Just woke up,& haven't takin my mornin Spudd yet. Always think better after I leave a Spudd in the bowl!:D Don't worry!I'll be back w/something for you in awhile! FGD |
Re: Ford VS Chevy.Now Spudd roast!
the ol ih crawlers that start on gas and switch to deisel would suck them deeres u0=p and spit 'em out as far as power lol as far as chevy and ford i would take a ford deisel with a 7.3 any day before a chevey anything and then there is the dodge cummins :D

Re: Ford VS Chevy.Now Spudd roast!
Oh thank god!!!!!!!
I woke up and I hear Bin Ladin has been killed and thought the site would be shut down being that I was sure that freddygeardrive was without a question bin Ladin |
Re: Ford VS Chevy.Now Spudd roast!
Now Clyde,do you know why John Deere was the only company to paint there tractors green?? If you don't know,I'll be glad to tell you.
There the only one's that didn't worry about the tractor dieing out in a field some where,& the farmer not being able to find the tractor when he came back for it! That's why farmall & all the others went with, blue, red,yellow & white.So you could find the junk out in the field,when you had to come & drag it back w/a Deere! Oh! Oliver did have a green for awhile,but it stuck out pretty good against the forest back ground!:D:D I can always think better after my mornin Spudd! It went well this mornin,didn't even git none on me hands wipe'in!:cool: FGD |
