what would u suggest   Posted Mon Mar 15, 04   6:20 PM     

hey guys i have a damned import and id like to start an American muscle car project... but i have no idea where to start, not even which car i want 2 build up. Im only working part time and going 2 school so itd be a drawn out process. any ideas would be awesome, ive kindve ruled out the ranchero and camaro for personal reasons. Id like something scheek and just plain mean looking, but with the ability to be super damn fast without having to sell body parts to afford. thx Dave-

thanks for the info dick! ive been researching imports for quite some time now but decided I want an American Muscle car instead, because of their ability to adapt to mods well and the fact that the horses just roll in, unlike damn imports where u can easily blow 10 grand in mods and gain maybe 250 horses. I just dont know much about the older cars so i didnt know if someone had an idea on a good starter car, so i put what i was looking for and then was hoping for ideas. the fact that alls u could do was flame tells me much about yourself... keep it up

Get a neon. They respond well to mods.. Hell, 14.9 in the 1/4 with just intake and exhaust (and little mundane things here and there) isn't bad at all.. speaking of which, I'm selling two of my neons (not the fast one tho)

Well theres a kind of a swap meet in pomona where a whole bunch of peeps meet up and try to sell they're cars... some need a hell of a lot work to be done or some come with it all. But majority of the people are sellin cheap ass cars. If your interested i'll found out the directions for you

80's body style mustang large after market for them and youd be amazed at just how big a motor you can cram into one of them ive read articles where big block engines fit with almost no problem also they weigh less than alot of the ricers out there and a good v8 stang can run 14's with no extra cash involved just some tuning


if it isnt fast enough to do some thing incredibly stupid in then it's not fast enough
