yeah, if I had the money i'd pay some garage to basically take the hull of a mustang mach 1 and put in modern everything else. *sigh*..

one of my housemates at college has a dad who has good contacts- with some patience he could probably find me a good secondhand car that'd be very cheap. Like around 1 or 2 k. lol, she told me this story about a guy who got this car spray painted for his girlfriend, with their names or whatever else on it- her dad is a spray painter - and once he had it, he found out she had cheated on him, and he just wanted the car out of his sight, so this totally amazing car went for an insanely low price, and the paint job could just be re-done.

Well, at least it wasn't a tattoo.

I'm with Vash- I'm all about the Toyotas.

**** toyotas. it's all about the oldsmobiles. you're not cool unless you have an oldsmobile

and that's the bottom line.

you're quick.
hehe yeah, guess so.. some lucky bastard is driving around with that car right now.
also, i'm told that there was this extremely rare sports car (ferrari?) that they only made 10 of, and they have 9 in a museum, and the last 1 is lost somewhere in the west of ireland. Probably rusting away in some farmers shed or something...

hah, you guys should've seen the cars on the road in ireland before we had a car test. Old hatchbacks held together with bailers twine, taped up wind screens, tractors with no roll bar, etc.

no no nono. stfu. you have not seen a beat up shitty car until you come to south dakota. i've seen it all since i've been here. i've seen the frankenstein you could imagine at any old junkyard back from the dead. ducttaped andshit together. the engine sounded like it was choking on a piece of ham!

hahah

really? wow. They've become super-thorough here. the garages love it. they want to put EVERYTHING on the bill, and a lot of it they don't even do, so you have to be very specific and ask only for what is actually needed.

The old cars where tanks, so why would you need an air bag when your car would get a starch, and the other car has major damage.

The problem with that is, however, not the damage to the car, but the eggs sitting inside.

That is true, but from what I been told or remember is that with the old cars you where not flung around as much like you are with cars today.

That is what I meant. As older cars will take up a lot more of the force of the impact and not "transfer" it like newer cars.

TEST TEST TEST TEST.

Works for me.
