OT --- a pic of my car (Remember Big A's Esprit?)

[Ivan]

I remember Big A posting his car, so I thought I would post mine... This is a '71 Cougar XR-7 She is all mine and she is full of HP --- It's gotta 351 Cleveland Bored 40 over, CobraJet Tranny, Gearing at 410, (used to be 373) With a BW ShiftKit and Ratchet Shifter. Has Flowmaster 2 chamber exhaust system.. Edelbrock 4 barrel 625cfm carb, (used to be a 750 Holley) Edelbrock intake, and Hooker Headers.

She is fast (the body is heavy though) has a kick ass stereo and sounds mean as hell....


Big A your Lotus would smoke me, but I bet I could lay a better patch of rubber!!! LOL! )))

Nice wheels bro, reminds me of my old '89 Mustang, and my bro freefallers '69 mustang when I was in San Diego visiting.

Amazing for you to mention that - I was on the track on Tuesday, and I just got the pics back and there's some good photos of it next to some Diablos and I thought I was going to show off with them LOL
I'll scan the pics and put them up shortly.

Regarding your car - my best friend is OBSESSED with them and actually that is his next project. He just finished not long a go a '66 Mustang Convertible Pony - rebuild it from scratch - he got the frame and started working from there, using mainly new parts. Took him 2 years to do. Now he's selling it - go figure.

dude thats a bad ass ride, muscle cars rock!

 

[crackerjack414]

I know how that is to put everything into a car and then its not fun after its done, u sell it

 

[Ivan]

Thanks everybody!

Big A, post those pics!
I liked the Viper page too BTW Crowler. It is so fun driving my Coug, the Hp throws me right into my seat. What I do is play some Zombie or AC/ DC REAL loud on my way to the gym, feeling the power and listening to her growl...

2 years ago I had it in a Classic Car parade called the Car D'Alene, (it was in a town called Coeur d'Alene) and I won the best sound award....

You see, I opened the headers up so the exhaust was coming directly out of the Ex. manifold --- SWEAR to God it sounded like an airplane (propeller type) it was so loud. It is still loud and burly enough to set off alarms on cars just by merely driving by!

muscle cars kick ass

that is a sweet pic
i used to have a 1969 buick skylark it just had a 350 but i remember once putting on a fresh set of bias ply tires i modified the headers to stick straight up(with the hood off) and i did the biggest burn out i had to stop cause the belts were peeling out, there were flames shouting out of the headers, fuck it was sweet. i am going to get a loan and buy a 1970 buick GS skylark with a 455(Chevelle body style)

 

[anabolic_hippie]

oops pressed new thread instead of reply hahahhahah sorry about that guys

 

[Steak Helmet]

I used to have a 1970 DODGE CHALLENGER RT...red with a 383 and hurst shifter. I remember my father took me for a ride when I was 16 and said this is going to be your car. Well, he rosted the tires in first, second, and third gear going down the on ramp to the freeway. I want a 69 CAMARO RS/SS BLACK...DREAMING

I bet your car sounds GREAT>

I have the stock exhaust still, so my car doesn't sound nearly as good as alot of cars out there.

 

[Big A]

OK, here they are. I dropped my scanner so now it's screwing up and the quality of the pics looks shit.

This one is racing around the track - that's a 90' right hand turner doing it at just over 100mph. The G-forces are phenomenal

 

[Big A]

This is next to a red Diablo. The Diablo looks a bit ruggedy as it end it up in the sand pit trying to keep up

 

[Big A]

Here you have:

Black Esprit
Red Diablo VT
Gunmetal Diablo VT
Yellow Murcielago
Red Elise S2
Blue 3200GT
