Judging by the standards of Finland, I'd say yes.

I don't want you to see my car. It is a dull blue 1991 Ford Taurus with the rear bumper hanging off because insurance didn't cover the damage since I was at fault for not looking the wrong way in a one-way parking lot before a black Chevy pick-up truck came in the wrong direction at over 30 mph and came in my path before I was able to notice, since I was looking in the direction that cars are supposed to be coming from.
Why does it seem that I am always getting short-changed? Last edited by Fish_Flake; 16 Jun 2003 at 04:08. |

Woody - I have to say you really should be from my town with that car - especially the blue light covers - but obviously your pride and joy. Are the number plates covered to protect the guilty ?

Alpina,
There's nothing wrong with the Skoda. It's a great car. Unfortunately, my Skoda is a company car, and I'm losing my job today. |

I think Mk3 Golf's look fine. They're just German. All tooled up and teutonic.

Cool colour, although you can't beat the Mk1 shape.

I saw a ZR yesterday in metallic slate grey - looked very nice. Bit more subtle than yellow (with apologies to Peril, Suzy! )...

Here is my daily driver, a 1968 Chevrolet Camaro, somewhere in the mountains of Kentucky on our way to the Petit LeMans a couple of years ago. Robert

Excellent, 60's muscle - shame it's a Chevy though.

It has a 355ci small block bal & blueprinted, comp cams valvetrain, pocket ported and bowl polished heads, edelbrock intake & carb, 350hp/400lb-ft of torque (per the engine builder), th2004r automatic overdrive from a 86 monte carlo, 3.36 rear w/eaton posi, 16" wheel vintiques rallye wheels and various suspension upgrades and a power disc conversion (it had manual drums and took forever to stop when i got it). It's a lot of fun most of the time, but a bit of a handful in crappy weather. Robert
PS as far as being a chevy, I owned a 69 mustang before this and I have to say the chevy parts are 50% cheaper in general, and the interchange is much better. Nothing but origial parts fit in the mustang. I was actually looking for a 70-73 Cuda, when I bought this car, but the only one I could find in my area was a shell and 12 boxes of parts, and I needed a driver. (this was in the early 90's, pre internet). Robert |

Nope - Peril is being shy now. Refer to: http://tentenths.com/forum/showthrea...5&pagenumber=6 to see him.
I have some new pictures of him at his motor racing events to show off. Last edited by Suzy; 10 Jul 2003 at 15:40. |
