So I took my car out 2 days in a row today, first time in a while. Got $20 of fuel and hey the 93 stuff was "only" $3.999 so I got a full 5.001 gallons of fuel--yea I got 50 miles worth or more.
Car runs great smooth and powerful, 340 engine, 3,000 stall and 3.91 gears, not too loud either but when pressed has a deep thrust sound. Walked past a few sport cars--it really needs more cam and then it might fly passing some of them...but most times its putting around town.
Seen a Smart car or the like.. sitting up front in the left turn lane, windows all open--nice day. I make my right turn on red after stopping and go past him, my 79 Magnum hood seems as long as that car, I just left it in first and got halfway on it after my hood cleared the other car, chirp 2nd and stayed on it till about 60 ...burning up as much fuel in a 1/8 of a mile then that car would burn the whole mile, ha ha
Its almost more fun now here, fewer cops and a bit less traffic with these high fuel prices. And a good running old car is so rare now..cause it costs so much to first make and then keep running but if you got it I find it pretty awesome out there ..i know some places have speed/red light cameras, tougher reckless driving laws--40--50 mph over is automatic reckless even if you past not one other car and had full control of the car. But Michigan is still pretty cool--so far, now if we could just get some more jobs, ha ha ha
