I gotta admit, I've watched that movie hundreds of times since the age of 5 years old and I do associate it with street racing every time I hear...
Cool.....and a factory fuelie car to boot! I don't know about the Hemi idea really, but I'm all for keeping it a Hot Rod 'Vette! If the flares are...

A long time ago, I saw a 6-cylinder Camaro Drag Car that had painted on: "Mean Buzzin' Half-Dozen" and the name has always stuck with me!
Great car and I'm crazy about the "Strip Tripper" name!
C'mon man, they don't look that bad. By the way, what's wrong with looking like a flower? I can easily think of one another "thing" in life that...
Fellas, I'm helping a friend freshen up a 427 CID that's .030 over and when ordering rings, there's a choice between .030 and .035. Forgive my...

Great thread!
The '55 Chevy 150 2-Door that I dealt with was a 6-cylinder car so it was prime hot rod material and engine swap candidate. Thankfully, it was...
Wow! I can't believe the name-calling and personal attacks on other people that like to wrench on cars just like the rest of us. The average "Hot...
