  1. ^ Just kidding. I'm Phil from Toledo. I work as a graphic designer. I'm an oldguy 43. I am also a mod on Toledo Tuners and (until recently) admin on TorinoCobra.com. (site changed hands so I stepped aside for the new guy). My point: No drama or trolling from me. I decided to join up because a couple of my friends moved down there and my brother lives there as well. I plan on visiting a lot more and I want to check out the scene and hopefully network myself a new job and source of car parts. On to the car shit: I'm a Ford guy but this is my current DD, I sold my 2.3/5speed turbo mustang for this shitpile. It started knocking last week so I'm pretty pissed. Plans: new 4.0 swap, SYE, recovery points, take it wheeling and dent the fucker all up. http://i95.photobucket.com/albums/l148/supercobrajet/blujeep/100_6041.jpg http://i95.photobucket.com/albums/l148/supercobrajet/blujeep/100_6045.jpg http://i95.photobucket.com/albums/l148/supercobrajet/traverse%20aug-2010/IMG_0379.jpg Wife's DD http://i95.photobucket.com/albums/l148/supercobrajet/Cherokee/100_5565.jpg This is the fun-car I am building for my wife. A 1968 Ford Fairlane 500. 302/C4 auto/8" rear. Its our cruiser. My wife is recovering from breast cancer bullshit so it seemed fitting to build her a car. I picked this up for $2000 of a local towtruck driver/repo guy I know.

  4. I'm willing to bet everyone on here's rides spend less time on jackstands than mine. I tend to break cars just through commuting and terrible luck. Anyway, I suppose I should get outta here before it looks like a multi page chick-intro and join the fray to see what's up on here. Thanks for the welcome.

  6. (sorry this is so long) This car was a good friend of mine's. He had it 20 years befor selling it to me. When I wrecked my 70 Torino he sold me the freshly painted roller to put my driveline in. It was a green 302 car but he painted it a factory available Grabber Blue. I added the 466/C6 31 spline trac lock N case rear with a 3:50 gear. I also added buckets, console, GT hood, 429 callouts and the Magnum 500s. The car ran a best 13.776 with the previous 3:00 gear set. My buddy's pic when he bought it 20 yrs ago http://i95.photobucket.com/albums/l148/supercobrajet/70%20fairlane%2008/sc005a036302.jpg http://i95.photobucket.com/albums/l148/supercobrajet/70%20fairlane%2008/sc005a0363.jpg During: http://i95.photobucket.com/albums/l148/supercobrajet/DSC05020.jpg http://i95.photobucket.com/albums/l148/supercobrajet/DSC04991.jpg now: http://i95.photobucket.com/albums/l148/supercobrajet/70%20fairlane%2008/DSCF0222.jpg http://i95.photobucket.com/albums/l148/supercobrajet/70%20fairlane%2008/DT.jpg http://i95.photobucket.com/albums/l148/supercobrajet/70%20fairlane%2008/100_6330.jpg http://i95.photobucket.com/albums/l148/supercobrajet/70%20fairlane%2008/100_1462.jpg Money shot: http://i95.photobucket.com/albums/l148/supercobrajet/DSC05610.jpg If this isn't too boring I'll post up some of my other Ford garbage I've owned

  8. I guess I'm old school, but I don't particularly see anything wrong with it and the yelping made it pretty funny to me. As someone said it could be another country where they still consider an unwanted litter of puppies a nuisance. Where and when I grew up that was the standard way of getting rid of them except most people put them in a sack so they weren't going to survive. Not here to argue and I won't respond to OMG your a jerk type comments, its just the way things were 15-20 yrs ago in southern, OH and I bet it hasn't changed much.
