CRAWL BACK INTO YOUR HOLE BASKET !!!!!

Oh dear...must have hit a nerve.

 

[Lucky13]

More like stamped on it....

As for motorcycles....

BSA Rocket Gold Star 650 qi

BSA Gold Star 500 qi

Manx Norton 500 qi

AJS 7R 500qi

People can stuff their Honda's, Kawasaki's, Yamaha's and Suzuki's where the sun never shine....

So just how available are muscle cars in the 'States? I've always thought you could just go over there and pick up something very easily and cheaply. Don't mean a '67 Charger but something like a Camaro or 80's Mustang. Of course it will have to be the V8 but the other thing is it would have to be manual. Are they still pretty easy to find with a 'stick shift'?

Much as I love the achievements of my people...Brit motorcycles never did anything for me.

Of course Vincent and Brough Superior was far better than anything else...

Then Rolls Royce and Jaguar and Bentley...

The Japs made excellent motorcycles and that the fact. The Kawasaki Z1 was art. Triumph and Norton couldn't match.

The Daytona above looks like a 6th graders imagination. Total shite.

What is the 2nd car down, Lucky? She's a beaut.

And I love the English bikes. I had a Kawasaki 440LTD in highschool. And had the good fortune to ride a Yamaha 1100 Midnight Special to Gatlinburg, Tennessee. Ah... good times.

 

[Screaming Eagle]

its a plymouth GTX, me thinks 1968 model, and lucky I am salivating over those cars! If I had to really choose it would either be a plymouth road runner or a dodge super bee with the scat pack. factory built muscle cars purpose built for racing mmmm...... anyways heres some pics and a link to one of my favourite websites uncyclopedia: (you will enjoy this lucky!)
Road Runner - Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia

 

[Lucky13]

Second car down is a 1969 Plymouth GTX...

The same year but a Roadrunner....
Of course, when possible, they'll also have the "Air Grabber" or "Shaker" hoods...yummy!

Air Grabber that pops up fully when you put the pedal to the metal, and the Shaker that vibrate with the engine. Mopar, craziest paint jobs and hoods....

Even though a MOPAR kid, I wouldn't mind a nice....

1968 Shelby Mustang GT500KR or...

1969 Yenko Camaro...

 

[Henk]

It'd have to be something like this then....

....or a tasty cal-looker.

Why do you need a V-8 when you can just get a VW Beetle, it can swim, the heater is fast and it makes a cool noise!

Now where is my SS Camaro.

 

[Thorlifter]

Nice muscle cars Lucky. Now your talking my language.

I watched the Barrett-Jackson auto auction last year and do you know what their 1967-1969 Mopars were going for? Granted these are professionally done, frame off restoration with matching numbers, documented, certified, blah blah blah, but the 1969 'cuda with a 440 were selling for $600,000.

My dream car is a 1969-1970 Boss or Mach1 Mustang. Those were going for $120,000 to $500,000.

 

[Lucky13]

Something like this you mean Mr T....

1969 Boss 429 Mustang

1970 Boss 429 Mustang....

I have to admit that that '69 is the better looking of the two.

 

[wilbur1]

Thats the real deal, talk about burnouts!

 

[Thorlifter]

Yes sir! If I got to choose, I'd prefer the Mach1, but the Boss would do. Back in high school, I owned a 1970 Chevelle. That car was a blast!

 

[Lucky13]

The '65 Pontiac GTO is a rather nice set of wheels me thinks...

Like this honey...?

Mach 1 of this kind?

 

[Thorlifter]

Now your talking Lucky. That Mach1 is sweet and that Chevelle you posted is what mine looked like, but mine wasn't the SS and was maroon.

 

[Lucky13]

I have to include this one as well....'57 Chevy Black Widow. Not a Mopar but, SWEEEET!

 

[Thorlifter]

I showed that pic to my dad and he said he used to own a '55 and a '57. His '57 looked just like that. When he joined the Air Force, he had his father sell it since he didn't need it. <groan>

I see a serious talk in the near future for your dad.... Same as my dad, he almost bought a '65 Mustang convertible when I was a kid, but didn't...

 

[Konigstiger205]
