There is so much Carbon Fiber on the car I had to add a 10lb. anchor to tie to car down cause it weights so much less.:rofl2::jester::nice:

We're selling the company and there is a limited window for all interested parties to get involved, so the tour was just scheduled today for tomorrow morning. It takes about four hours to get through our plants (we have two on our grounds, plus a waste water treatment plant) and then have to answer the questions about our sale, etc. after that.

If I get out around 2 or so, I may try to come up to see what's happening..... just depends. Sorry man, I'm really bummed about this. I haven't been to a show since mid-June. :mad:

Just to clarify Scott, there is nothing "wee" about my "willies"......... :rofl2:

Maybe that light weight would help you get that show car of yours into the 11s..... :jester:

The car is ready but the driver is in the 13's

Sitting at work......... waiting for visitors to arrive........ this sucks. :(

Tom - what do you do / what is produced at this company?


And I like this - it makes sense...

We make private label ice cream for supermarkets, club stores, wholesalers, etc.

Let's see....... around the Indy area, do you shop at Marsh? Aldi? Sam's Club? That's our stuff. :nice:

Oh, Double Death by Chocolate. Can't be too intense for me. If it tastes like burnt tires, you are getting close.

I think my wife shops at Meijer and Kroger. They are putting an Aldi in just up the road...

Just got home .... tied for 1st place with another Black GT Mustang (Home Club Member). Tom showed up in the last half an hour..it was good to see him. Pictures forth coming after I take my wife out to eat.

So did the prospective buyers like the ice cream?

This is the car that I tied with

Good showing Darrell!:metal:

Morning Gents

Thanks Scott

How do you like your Headlight splitters??? worth the money???

I think I broke toms new camera or he got lost going home from the show

I like my headlight splitters with the stock facia. I took them off last week getting ready for the Roush fascia. I will decide than if I will put them back on. Here is what they look like if you haven't seen them.

I like the green one better ... man sweet car/cars Scott

Yep - makes me wish I had my '69 back... 9F02M181010 where are you?

Oh - stupid question - what is a C/T? Seems it has something to do with post count?

I knew a few C/T's in High School.......that was a few years ago.:jester:

Hmm... I suspect it is a different type of C/T. I knew a few too... Oh, those were the days. :grin:

Morning all you Midwest fellows. Where's Tom been this weekend?

hell-o

A shot of dly's car...... and perhaps his best side. :dunno:

http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g1...f/IMG_0166.jpg

:jester:

Timing is everything.:rofl2::rofl2:

Wait - wait, is he walking toward the camera or away? Hard to tell.

Sorry - that was mean - but I couldn't resist. :jester:

I though I saw a shiny penny on the ground.:dunno::screwy::grin:

Or maybe I was lookin for Tom's Car.:rofl2::jester:

If it were me I'd say "I was getting a beer out of the cooler" but I think your a Pespi or Coke man. :jester::rofl2:

I had to give you a chance at winning the trophy....... :jester:

Dly - I just noticed those mirrors under your hood - is that a kit or are they custom cut?

I was wondering about that too.... Spill the beans! :nice:

Hey guys....I don't want to spill all of the beans but Darrell has a 36 inch disco ball in his bedroom!! :jester::hail::rofl2::rofl2::rofl2:

Custom made by me. if you take off the hood liner you will see the different pockets form by the inner support frame. I just made templetes and cut some plastic mirrors to fit. I used 1/4" black door trim to go around the edges and velcro then into place. I don't run with them on, only for shows. Total cost about 80 bucks and 10 hours of labor.

He's just jealous that mine is bigger than his.:jester:

Hey onV3 there are 2 shows this coming weekend. Saturday in Mishawaka at Kamm's Island. It will probably be small about 40 to 50 cars. Sunday is a larger one at the Tire Rack sponser by the Studerbaker club called the Spirit of South Bend. This should be a larger one.

I'm not even going to ask how you guys know about the disco balls in each others bedrooms http://www.dodgetrucks.org/forums/im...s/icon_eek.gif lol

Darrell is correct. With his tape measure his is bigger. But I have one that is corrected to the National Bureau of Standards so I guess I am calling him out!!!!;):jester:

It always seems to come down to size doesn't it Glenn? Darrell is an exaggerator!!!!!!!:jester:

Glenn - you beat me to it...

My tape measure is up to ISO14000 standard

Oh were we talking about Disco balls???

Those mirrors look good. I don't have the pockets anymore for the mirrors on the new hood.

I do have a nice new roll of tin foil... Hmmm...

What is a disco ball? :dunno:





Man you old timers...... :poke:

I think it has something to do with testicles.

Yes, or maybe the lack of........ :rofl2:

Hey Tom your next mod

http://www.saleen.com/supershaker/

No thanks..... I looked at that last year when the prelim version came out. Not convinced that it is waterproof. Looks like H2O could easily, easily go right into your intake. Plus, have you seen the video? At first it sounds cool, but in my opinion the sound would get old quick.

There are a couple of really big boxes sitting at the door when I got home today. Can you say Roush!!:banana: And my testicles are fine thank you. :-)

Man, if I could make you a custom title, I would be all over that statement.

If you want to work on something custom I got something. Get me some more lines for my modifications. Seems 10 is the limit and I am maxed out. Either got to stop modding or go to a forum that can support my mods. :jester::poke:

This is why I went to only showing vendors, and not mods.... I had to do this probably about a year ago, so you must have alot of modding to do if you want to catch me. ;)

And here I thought you could pull a string or two!!:jester:

Hey if your signature gets any longer, it will need it's own page! :jester:



Did you see the thread that I made about the C&L intake manifold........

Wow - that is a great punch line...

Funny for the day -

Good one Chris. At my age my bells already clang!! Gravity is hell!!:jester:

scott it is in the GT tech forum.....


good one chris!

Found it! Thanks. Interesting for sure. Worth following. :hail:

I think I know what my next mod is going to be. I'm buying a navigation head unit from a friend, he put it in his Magnum and wants a different one. I believe it's an Audiovox unit. After this, window tint and rear lower control arms.

What up ? .........:grin:

'morning ladies.

Audiovox really :bad: why doesn't he like it. :)

the bear sign is classic and good morning all. Scott did you get that nose piece on yet :grin:

Nope. I need some experienced help.;) I just opened the box and pulled out the instructions. I hope to get started on it over the weekend. We got family reunions, birthday parties and weddings every weekend for the next month.

That is why people your age get like 5 personal days and 16 weeks of vacation time....... take tomorrow and Friday off and get the new parts on, you pansy.

I can't wait to see your car with the new front Scott, it's going to look awesome! :nice:

16 weeks...:rofl2::rofl2: I wish. I don't work for a steel mill or ice cream manufacturer. :jester:

I only get 15 weeks vacation...get it right!;)

Man I wish I could go to that one in Mishawaka but I have to work... Retail :bs:

I might be able to make it to the Sunday one though.. I've never been to Tire Rack!

Are any of you planning on going to the Michiana Mustangs show on Saturday August 9?

Good morning fellow stangers

Tom and I usally go but lately Tom has been wussing out:poke:

Yep, planning on it.......

Yeah, this whole "work" thing has turned my into a wussy. :doh:

Hi Glenn. :nice:

77 mile drive for me ...so most likely not :(

Hey come on, it's longer than that for me....... if your car gets 20mpg, it will cost you less than $30 to go. I'll kick in 1/2 of that if you come, just so we can meet.

dly and ov3n can kick in the other 1/2. :rofl2:

its not the cost of gas its more the time involved. I will not let the cost of gas stop me from doing something I want to do. f that lol

It's Friday again.:banana: Morning guys.

WooooooHooooooooo

Saw a nice 06 GT Lime, Auto with 2800 miles on it. Dealer took it in on a trade. They did not have the price on it yet.

The Gunbus 410 cubic inch V-Twin motorcycle is complete. The monster engine placed in a motorcycle frame of comparable size looked impossible and many who saw the photos were skeptical of the bike ever being finished but I guess, Clemens F. Leonhardt is one of those persistent guys who ignores the naysayers and keeps at his work.
The fuel injected, 45 degree 6728 cc / 410 cubic inch V-Twin runs through a 3 speed transmission with reverse and actually looks pretty good in its finished state compared to the initial photos, in fact, everything looks good. It puts out 523 foot pounds of torque. Seat height is 31.5 inches and overall length is 136 inches. It is a little heavy at 1433 pounds so high speed corner carving might be an issue and there aren’t any photos of the big bike on the road so I guess we’ll have to wait for the road test, that is if someone can actually road test this monster.
This is actually going to go into limited series production and a sidecar will be available as well which might help with balance when waiting at a light. I don’t even want to think about a driveway tipover. I think this is great! Now, where’s the video?

Ahh Crap! Cant go to Tire rack....I have to run "the Brickyard" at work....

Boy....these cars are pretty **** ugly with nothing on the front end.:confused: Start putting things back on tommorow!!:nice:

hahahaha I knew you wouldn't wait......

You know me too well Tom..It's going to be a hour here and an hour there. But it will get done. Thanks to Glenn for his pointers!!!!!!!!!!!:nice:

Looking forward to seeing it...... if I keep my car I was debating this mod for next year, but may opt to get my stripes painted on. The vinyl is driving me nuts at times.

Why???? Everytime I have seen it it looks killer!!!!!!!!!!!!!:metal: I hate all this talk of you selling your car. :-(

almost ready to buy a JLT and a tuner from tillman Hopefully before the end of the month here

Get some in-process pics of that front end.


And what? Tom? Sell car? You ain't lookin' at one of them there fancy foreign WRXSTi thingys now are ya? Maybe we need to work him over.:D

here ya go Scott

While my front end was off, I went at it with a can of black paint on parts of the radiator support to make it disappear into the grille, figured it couldn't hurt to do, especially if I change the grille to a billet later on. I don't like how you can see the structure of the car through the grille, so I figured the black-out treatment would do the trick. Would have been nice to see the cars come like that from the factory.

I just ordered J&M lower control arms for the rear of my car, figure that should help keep wheel hop to a minimum.

Hey Tom let me know how much you want for your car?????








I need a winter beater for when I put my car up!!!!:poke::lol::jester:

You'll love the boost in performance Glenn.:nice:



[quote=red454;5605550]Get some in-process pics of that front end.



I'll take a few this afternoon. It kind looks like it was in a wreck with all the body parts laying around in my garage. :rofl2:

Thanks Glenn






Good idea Justin about the black paint. I may do the same thing.

$27k as is...... or will return (for most part) to stock for lesser price. :nice: Of course, no mirrors or carbon fiber included in either deal.

Morning All


I painted mine also much better looking imo

i'm not painting mine just to be different from you guys. :jester::jester:

Had about 1 1/2 hrs to work on the Roush fascia install after work today. The fascia is completely assembled and ready to install except I am going to try and come up with some custom bracketry to hang the license plate about were shown in these pictures. I have been busted several times thru the years for running without plates in this state so I need to come up with something. More later. Need to get a shower and head off to a Cajun style boil tonight.
Scott

Looks NICE!

Scott, there is a bug in your garage........ :poke:

looking good

Looking good Scott..hey is that a FlareSide pickup truck???? I havn't seen one of those for a few years.

Mark today on your calendar.....150 cars at the Mishawaka Auto show on Kamm's Island. Trophys for the top 40 cars.......I finished 41st (or worst). First time I didn't bring home the bling. Lots of club cars and older roadsters and the like. Not being in a club kills you at participation voting show. Oh well it was a beautiful day and my 2 daughters came by to visit.

Wow - and they just happened to send you one that was already white! What luck! :D

it matches his hair. :bunny:
