    ah, there is no definition of cool. its just something you feel or see.you know that.dont you? sorry if im rufflin up everyones feathers. but back in the day when our cars were just old cars you didnt build a 4 dr car.2 dr cars were it.unless you were buildin a custom but then most ive seen back then were built with 2 drs.but im not into custome so im just going on what i seen.every guy that had the coolest cars in town always had 2 drs. never knew anyone that wanted 4dr. but with time and cars gettin harder to get 4 drs are now more acceptable.ive seen some good lookin 4 drs. but to me and a whole bunch on here 2 drs were and are the cool ones.they just give off that certian vibe.i got a friend whos been around since the 50s. pure hotrodder/biker. asked him about this very subject yesterday. hes words not mine but they do make sense, the only ones who think 4 drs are cool are the ones who have them...they gotta tell them selves they are cool....in the day 4drs were the ones you cut up to make replacement panels for your 2 dr.

    Not a show car by any means, but a lot of fun, even WITH 2 extra doors! :)

    What i don't understand is how a guy who likes station wagons is making fun of mordoors? Shouldn't you be singing the song along with the 4 door people?

    Besides i think its much harder to make a more door look cool than it is to make a 2dr look cool. Some of the kustoms shown above are pretty fantastic lookin.

    Some like 2 doors, some like 4 doors, it's like women, different shapes and flavors for different people.

  9. And that does it- the '41 Merc 'House'. Gee Mo, they're are all so very un-cool! Chris Stapley, the '58 'tourer' is a home run! I know how rad late 50's Caddy's look topless, that car would pop!

    Really? Putting down another member's car is not cool. For some reason you have nothing better to do than accost the people in this thread, instead of being constructive or giving advice somewhere else. Singling out that gal is not cool either. Maybe you have nothing to offer here?

    So its cooler because its quick? What does that mean for the Hondas that can run on you?

    Rules of what's cool coming from the guy with a 74 nova. You've spent the whole time telling everyone that their cars aren't cool, then proceed to state there is no definition of cool. Whatever it is, it is not you or your car. Grow up

    Uh...whut?

    Nice tinted windows, monochrome bumpers, and TT II's....trying to get featured in Street Rodder? In like 1994?

    Seriously, you're the last one who needs to pick on anyone's preference of cars.

    Oh yea....if you want to run someone, I'll take you on any day. It's a wagon too, but.....uh oh! 4 DOORS!:eek:

  18. How old are you?.. Do your parents know that you're on their computer again?

    According to your logic, I should be running a big block 468 Chevy and 4:56's in my 53 ford in order to be "cool". I have had some damn quick vehicles in my time and I know that a 400 crank in a 350 and a set of 4:11's out back isn't the epitome of coolness or fastness.

    If I wanna go fast I will ride one of my bikes

    If I wanna go stupid fast I will do it in my heavily modified Camaro.

    ...and If I wanna be cool I drive my 4door.

    Trailer to Texas?.. Not drive?... Come to my town sir and you will get spanked all the way back to the rock you crawled out from under.
    Take that to the bank, cash it and take a vacation out of my life.:cool:


    I believe there is some shit for you to disturb on some other thread around here where you are also not wanted. I am done with you.

    ok , here goes.im going to set this shit straight.op said any cool 4drs, right.well i said no there isnt.and to me and ALOT of others, not all but ALOT of others think the same thing. did i say there wasnt any good lokin 4dr cars no i didnt, i wont say it because then that would be wrong because there are alot of good lookin 4 drs.i did say i have never owned one,well i havent.i havent seen one that i thought had the cool thing going for it.back in the day everyone wanted 2drs to build.or just drive around in.nobody really wanted a 4dr.sorry but thats a fact. there are exceptions to every rule.when i say everyone i mean the majority of the people.hell i had a friend who drag raced a 4dr wagon. it was stupid fast(i like that sayin) but it just didnt look cool. it didnt have that cool thing going for it.it was a 4dr 57.fast but just not cool.hell he even said it wasnt cool.just what he had at the time he wanted to build a wagon to race.we both loved wagons.still do.just 2dr wagons.were wagons cool back in the day.nope they werent.but they could and have been made to look good.not all 2drs are cool.some just better looking.downtime, ive never,ever made fun of someone else car.not on here or anywere else. i have told some i dont like the car/cars in question but never made fun of another mans pride and joy.and you are right about it being harder to make a 4dr cool in fact its impossible. but they can be made to look fantastic.like that buick here.and 53 flathead, you see things that arent there.either that or you dont comprehend what you read.where in the hell did you come up with some of the things you think i said. like 4drs arent fast.you are pretty good at twisting things but not that good.show me where i said there were no fast 4dr cars.been around some stupid fast(theres that stupid fast thing again.lol)4drs.but they just didnt have the cool factor going for them.you started this name callin shit not me.wait i did call you a smartass,because thats exactly what you are being.for beginners i live on planet earth.lol.i know its the 21st centry but i really im not all that fond of it.liked the old days a hell of alot better.and i have been on this board for awhile and have learned alot.in fact ive been buildin cars and custom bikes for 40 yrs and im still learning new stuff.things do keep changin and if you want to stay in buisness ,so must you change.oh yeah like the scooters but aint that fond of baggers. prefer customs and bobbers.but both gotta be rigid frame.you arent the only one here who has harleys.is that just a 1%er sticker on them bikes or do you also wear one on your cut.i do.so im not impressed.besides they are ot so they shouldnt be up here with the camaro.not my rules.the bosses rules.one more thing,how did you come up with the logic statement.lol now that is funny or sad.your choice.when i said my old wagon had a 383 with the superstreet fighter trans and 411 i was tellin you what it had and that it wasnt a mom wagon.but if you want to call it that thats just fine by me, in fact i kinda like that. the mom wagon.lol.but yeah its fast, very fast.but its by no means the fastest thing we own here.is it cooler because its a fast car,nope.its cooler because its a 2dr.well as cool as wagons can be...lol.call people names on a computer is really what i like to do,id much rather say what i have to say in person.you know kinda like saying some one should crawl back under a rock.i quess i might because now im so scared..lol.i sure dont want to get spanked..lolnow that is funny.even you know thats funny!!!ok oldsmobum.for one ive not single out anyone. and my car isnt cool because its fast.tho now that i think about it it could have been taken that way.its just cool because its old and 2dr.and it gets driven almost everyday and raced a few times a month.yes i gotta 74 nova.so?do you see it here no you wont its ot.but it does have a glass tilt front end and 70-71 rear bumber so the ugly crash bumber is GONE..is it near stock nope not by a long shot.its not street driven either.its for racin only.and i never put anyone car down,o burger,yeah i like tinted windows.that way nobody can see in the back.and it does help to keep the sun off the grandkids when we go cruzin.but the bumber isnt monochrome.its painted flat black.do you know what monochrome really is?if you want to know id prefer to have it chrome but it was rusted up so bad that it just looked better painted.and them arent tt2s on this old car.the ones on the back are a set of old rockets like the old cragar ss.but on front now it does have cragar ss skinnys.love them and buddy if you want to get together and run id be more than happy to get with you.where and for how much.it will have to be after the first of the yr.thats when i can close the shop down for awhile.if your not bsing pm me on how much. now i got come from al. so its got to be a good purse.oh one more person to address. but when a member asked me if this is cool enoygh for you and i said nope(you put up a pic of your car.for some reason i cant seen to go back to the page) sorry but i dont think its got a cool look to it. but its a good lookin ride.there is a difference.like a good lookin lady. she may be hot as hell but still not cool in fact she could be a bitch.each and everyone of you who jumped my butt took what was said out of context.never said the cars on this post were bad cars.i did say they werent cool sorry just the way it or was...lol but there are some damn fine cars here.like that buick for one.and that roadster.wow.but thay just dont have that cool thing going for them.if i offended yall well sorry but i will stick to what i said.they just aint cool...

    2dr, 4dr..... Either way, "cool" can be defined by anyone. What really matters is that the owner thinks its "cool". If anyone else thinks its "cool", thats just a bonus!
