american iron

i love detroit iron, i always have, always will. American muscle is what I learned on, and its what I want. I may or may not return to my homeland someday. For those of you you dislike it, thas cool , but for those of you like "all kinds of cars" (nod to snowman) i present something nice [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

the engine could use a loving touch, but she looks nice

New American cars blow because they try too much to be like imports.

I like American cars that are American.

Like Vettes... always liked those. Even the C5s. They kept the pop-up lights, even square lights inside it. Very american, very nice. They have some sketches of possible next gen Camaros & Stangs, with retro body style with slight modern touches... very sexy

My 1st car was a 76 Corvette. it was smogged down to 180 HP so I pulled the engine and rebuilt it to 383 stroker about 370 HP/ 400ft/lbs.
Now that I'm older and wiser and need dependability, I drive a Civic. Killler torque vs. high RPM scream, I love 'em both. Did I telll ya' about the 8000 RPM 283 small block I had..........old man story but AWESOME!!!
