*EDIT* Oh and btw... my racing stripes went horribly wrong. I was drunk... it was windy... you get the picture. $100 down the drain. I did manage to salvage enough to do the reverse C striping if choose to.  |

I tell ya one thing though. When I put on all the TV's and light er up, I get a crowd around the car every time LOL. From smashed up to where you have her today....that is pure dedication and $$$$........I especially like how you stated in your previous post describing your ride
"Added chrome to hide all actual lighting so as to see light effect only, not to see lights themselves"
Classy move....
In addition to int pics please take one or two at night with everything turned on.....Let us see the show 
And I hear you about putting more $$$ into it than you care to admit....a common thing with serious auto enthusiasts and it seems we never get back what we put into it but it is the pride and joy of taking something and turning it into something entirely different that makes it all worth it.
I see your in Jersey so need to ask if you have it insured with American Collectors who are based out of Cherry Hill, NJ?
I recently picked up a 1978 Jeep J10 full size pickup 4x4 with a very built and high performance AMC 360-V-8 5.9L in it. Previous owner spent years and many hours of sweat not to mention a lot of $$$$ to get it looking really nice....When I bought it I immediately added it to my regular auto insurance policy with Amica ( who are awesome ) since I was extremely anxious to get her on the road.
Then about a week later I switched insurance over to American Collectors....I put a stated value on the truck of $10k ( previous owner had it insured for $20k) with a annual mileage requirement of 5k max which is no where near what I will put on it. I went with just enough liability to meet NY requirements and then added comprehensive ( no collision ) with a deductible of $1k....all to keep the yearly premium as low as policy.
Yearly premium came to $115.00 total...just awesome.
Great people to do business with and in addition to vehicle age requirement ( which yours qualifies for ) must submit a photo to them and also keep vehicle in locked enclosed garage and finally has yearly max mileage limits but they are very generous with that. Also must have at least one other so called regular vehicle insured ( with anyone ) and registered in your name/address. Which they will assume is your daily driver and your classic vehicle only to be used for car shows and the occasional leisure drive.
Looking forward to your other pics...a truly unique and what I like to call "Done Right" classic ride!
Great job you've done with her! |

My Truck 2007 GMC Sierra The daughters 2002 Junior Dragster 7.90 Sec at 85mph in the 1/8th mile will do 7.60 But Rules limit the ET  -- Chaos reigns within. Reflect, repent, and reboot.Order shall return. |

 sailorPremium join:2003-10-21 Long Island kudos:6 | Nice truck and cool dragster your daughter pilots....By the looks of the trophies she must be tearing the competition up. Good for her...
A friend has 3 young boys...oldest probably no older than 9 or 10 and down from there...the two oldest boys have their own dragsters and they load them in the trailer and off they go racin on as many weekends as they can..1/8 mile as well...a real family affair...mom, dad, the three boys....
Your daughters gorgeous wavy hairy immediately made me think of a young Robert Plant. |

| reply to Mickeyme 2000 Ford Taurus (Duratec Engine, 24 valve DOHC, 200hp and torque. It's been a wonderful car, I've kept it in great shape for the past year I've owned it (previous owner was my mom, who grandma'd it and it always was in the garage. 120k miles and it drives wonderfully. The Duratec engine is pretty beefy, the DOHC engine really makes acceleration powerful. It's pretty damn fast too, I get up to 60 in no time, I have to be careful sometimes. Got a 6 speaker sound system in it (called Mach audio, never heard of it, but it sounds wonderful, w/ 6 CD slots) with full leather, auto climate control, sunroof, I love it. Also love how big the trunk is, I can fit my bike in it.



Sorry for the huge pics, you can thank my weird phone. 
Oh, and sadly she is rusting in two spots, I want to maybe take it to a body shop and get an estimate to fix it...any ideas? Here's a pic of it, it looks the exact same on the other side of the vehicle: »img862.imageshack.us/img862/7964···8nql.jpg |

 sailorPremium join:2003-10-21 Long Island kudos:6 | Real nice looking Taurus and it shows you've taken good care of it...as for the rust, no guess on estimate but get it taken care of a.s.a.p. before it rust all the way through...then you'll really have a problem.
And to dress up the looks of that steering wheel this cover is real good......I put one on my 04 Crown Vic and it fits, looks and feels great. Can't beat it for the price.

I just picked up my new truck today. I was thinking about getting a 2011 Ford F150. But decided spending over $40k just for a truck to haul a boat that I might not even buy wasn't a good idea. So instead I spent $19000 on a 2008 Dodge Dakota Laramie 4x4 with the 4.7L V8. Loaded with every option except for nav and sun roof. Only 30k miles. Still has 6k miles and 7 months left on the warranty. The 7 months will be up before I put 6k miles on it. The truck will mostly just sit in the garage as my daily driver is a 2010 Ford Fusion SEL V6. The truck replaces my shitty old 2001 Suzuki XL-7. Although the truck seats 5 it's still not big enough to haul around my entire family of 7. That's why my wife has a 2008 Toyota Sequoia. Any more kids and I'll need a bus.
Anyway, I'm a happy truck owner now. I'm going to start looking into tonneau covers now. I want one that is hard but folds up. I like the look of the solid covers but their a bitch if you ever need to put anything on the bed. |

 GTJiga06 GTPremium join:2002-02-02 Azle, TX kudos:1 | Nice clean looking Dodge thegeek! ____________
Stepped on it yet caddyroger? I've heard those V6 Camaros are quite impressive. Looks nice!
I never can get a Camaro out here to just step on it from a red with me. Every once in a while I like to just launch from a red light when it's clear up front on certain roads I take. Had a few Camaros next to me but I just can't get them to run with me. All other cars besides the upity BMW5/Mercedes owners seem to want to.
Any mods planned for the future? |
