      Nothin' quite as good as having buddies that don't mind getting dirty. Nose of that old girl probably sits a bit higher now, huh? You going to bag it?

      Not right now. Going ol'school with shorter coil springs taking it down 2 inches. Going to have a spring shop here in kc make some new ones that will still have the same load rating. With the lakes pipes it will give the illusion of a ground scraper.

      I really gotta see this. It sounds cool.

      Well, Id like to be blown but I will settle for injection. The six two's have already been forgotten, too early for the car style.

      Doc, I don't at the moment.I will keep my eyes peeled for you I run in to them every once in awhile. What are you going to run for a trans?

      Having a bell housing made to run an Aussy ford Top Loader. Ran one behind 590hp and it never failed me.
      Real cars have three pedals!

      Your right Doc..... Just like my 2 ponies. It wouldn't be fun to have an auto trans in those cars.

      Yup, there is something about paddling a car around that appeals to me. I cant stand autos, even with a shift kit. I really dislike the engine sound with the different rev ranges they demand.

      Yep! The Ford dealer wanted to charge me an extra $1000.00 for a auto trans in my '05 car and I said NOPE!!... I told him I wanted to "enjoy" driving it! A'/ Mine is just like this one but I have the black interior and rear spoiler. I love this car!

      If I didn't have that third pedal in my Croozer, I wouldn't know what to do with my left leg. In 1969, and old friend of mine bought himself an XK-E. First, he got a 2+2. If that wasn't bad enough, he got it with an auto trans. He might as well have bought a minivan.
