I recently sold my 1999 10th Anniv. Mazda Miata (4,900 miles on the odometer). I might sell the 2001 PT Cruiser. I'll keep the 1999 Dodge Dakota 4WD, the 1992 Toyota Celica (35 mpg!!), and the scooters (80 mpg!!!).

The Pinzgauer will go places I would be afraid to walk.

Andy I am pleased to see you are looking after that car. It always was a nice car.
If that is your house I see being a corrupt Policeman pays well. Who said crime does not pay.

Mate as this is a serious thread I do not believe what you have posted is true, I happen to know that the Dunny you travel in is a duel seater as we all know you are that crazy as to need two arseholes!
As far as my abode goes it is not the proceeds of crime! I was given a heap of cash from Bill Gates after replying to an email from microsoft. Where has all the honesty gone on this Forum? Next thing you know there will be people saying that thier SV27's are doing 55mph in oval trim.............................................. ........

Those first two pictures don't look much like a Jet, Dr.

But still some pretty cool rides!!!:drool:

They may not be jets, but nobody has posted anything faster (the Libelle's redline is 135 knots or about 155 mph). The Pinzgauer has actually done 65 mph before :eek: (downhill).

Here's another one I dabble with. I don't fly this (too scary), I just turn wrenches and throw out ideas. Best speed is 252 mph on a 6-mile pylon course (while swinging wide to pass slower traffic - World Record). Not bad for a biplane with a normally-aspirated IO 320 and a fixed-pitch prop. ;)

Mike, I lied.. Just realized RCX is on the same weekend as Valdosta:doh::ThumbsDown01::banana:

Its the one chance a year I get to hang out with my sponsors face to face..

I'll come out there and humor you guys at the end of the summer like I did last year..

I don't wanna' shoot for uncharted records anyway.. The've allowed some new lipo rules for the little boats

I'd rather bust someone's record than jump for joy having only competed against the clock

I REALLY like that lake.. Most of the racers are fun too be around as well..
I miss waffle house more than anything down there..

why are you so negative?. always point out the bad in everything.
i can assure you i have never seen a chevy that looks the same as either 3, and the interior and finish and fit is much better.
not everything is about what it looks like.
more about quality, finish, how things are put together, toys accessibility, sound quality, comfort, user friendliness, driver aids, and how easy is it to get in an out of the car, smooth shift points firm soft suspension,, with the F55 suspension i can choose what i want!
i wouldn't want to go car shopping with you

Here's the vehicle that I use when I bring along several boats, an '88 Jeep Comanche pickup truck

Don't laugh (well O.K., go ahead). I bought it 5 years ago - best $500 I ever spent.

Already have...not too bad if your good with a wrench. Back when I ran Nitrous on the car I had to go to a colder plug to prevent detonation and pinging. I also installed headers and camshaft...so I am not a newbe.

I like the car detox!
I looked at one about 9 months ago to buy. black/black 2002 SS same as yours. It has 40K on it.
but the interior just just sh*t, it looks the same as a Pontiac grand am or a Pontiac sunfire.
other then that the car was nice. good amount of power to it and firm tight suspension.
altho still no F55 suspension but still nice :)

I figured as much. :thumbup1: My wife has a Firebird that isn't as amenable! It's like pulling teeth from underneath with the exhaust manifolds in the way and I don't dare try to take them off when it's in an aluminum block. LOL!
