I like almost all old cars, bikes, guns............here is my current Vette, she just turned 15 and runs like almost new at my favorite old hole in the ground ;^)

Honda 600, I believe. With a few body mods. Is that really a clown car?

I'll bet that's a hoot to run around in.

You are correct, in the early 80's my Grandpa bought the 1971 Honda n600. He had the top chopped off and the middle of the car cut out and then had the car welded back together, he had this done to fit inside the belly 1964 Silver Eagle bus that he had converted into an RV.

It also has a vinyl to and doors that can be put on it.

There's over 600rwhp on top of the 65.

My latest project/knuckle buster....it has come a long way since I got her but is a kick to drive. I get everything from WTF looks to being saluted by 70-80 year olds.

Here it is when I got it



How she looks now



A little of the work

My 1977 Ford Mustang II Ghia.

 

[alphapygmy]

My 1969 Mustang coupe. This was my first car, bought at 16 and I'm almost 40 now. Has a very built 351C 4V, 4 wheel discs, custom dash, fuel cell, etc. I used to drive this 25 miles a day to and from school back when gas was a buck a gallon for for premium. I'm such an old fart now it scares the crap out of me.

Some say Fox Mustangs are becoming classics and mine is 23 years old so technicaly it is. Right? 331 Dart block aluminium heads big turbo C-6 and 9in. rear end Still fuel injected. Best run to date is 10.30 @ 132. dyno at 510hp and 585tq to the rear tire.

While I'm not at all a Mustang guy, I have respect for any car running in the 10sec index. Keep doing what you are doing!

This was always one of my favorite threads.

Time to bring it back

I'll play. My 1972 Chevelle, not a real SS, but I guess that doesn't matter since in '72 you could get an SS equipped the same as mine was, beside I got it for a lot less than a real SS and I wouldn't want to mess with the collectability of the real thing either.

Here's what I'm working on right now. Previous owner dropped a small block chevy in it with TH350 tranny and 203 transfer case. I've done a little to it, but still have a lot more.

Best of show twice include the all Chevy/Camaro show. Edmonds class winner, Greenwood class winner, Kirkland class winner and about 20 others (I got tired of going to shows)

I read somewhere in NWFA (probably in the Street Outlaws thread) that there used to be a dragstrip in/near Cornelius. Then last Satruday I was driving through Cornelius and saw an oldschool dragster on a trailer. Baby blue, extremely chopped and abbreviated T-bucket body, blown engine ahead of the cockpit and a bare chrome rail front end with little "bicycle" front wheels.

Is there any regular place/event where people still race vintage iron like that? I'm not terribly interested in today's 300mph+ monster dragsters, but that old stuff is exciting. Like the Willy's coupe!

Took my imagination back to the early-60's when I was a kid thumbing through every hotrod and racecar magazine I could buy on a paper route budget. Remember Car Toons and Cycle Toons magazines? And the girls in the Norton ads in Cycle World? Hubba Hubba!
