  1. LSx-swapped RX-8? http://www.ls1rx8.com/ Not sure about the Mustang sound but it'll have accessible and usable backseats. Still retains A/C and cruise. FI kits bolt up to the LSx. Still reasonably light and nimble...
  2. Selling this for a friend...not sure how much traction it's going to get with Rocky's Accord still for sale:) "http://s3.photobucket.com/user/velcro05/library/car It's a 1999 Honda Accord EX-L with almost 180,000 miles on it. It has an after-market Sony CD player with its original remote, box and manual. I have the original radio/CD player, too, but the CD function doesn't work. It needs new tires and one significant issue with it is that there's a power driver seat, but it's stopped being able to move forward and backward -- it just goes up and down and tilts forward and backward. List of other things, which I modeled after a similar listing: Color - Plum, Air Conditioning, Climate Control, Cruise Control, Power Steering, Power Windows, Power Door Locks, Tilt Steering Wheel, Steering Wheel Radio Controls (only work with original radio installed), Sunroof, Driver Airbag, Passenger Airbag, Security System, ABS Brakes, Rear Defogger, Intermittent Wipers, AM-FM, CD Player, Aluminum Wheels, Leather Interior Surface, Bucket Seats, 4-Wheel Disc Brakes, Leather Wrapped Steering Wheel, Power Driver Seat, Power Driver Mirror, Driver Lumbar, Pass-Through Rear Seat, Adjustable Steering Wheel, Passenger Illuminated Visor Mirror, Passenger Vanity Mirror, Driver Vanity Mirror, Driver Illuminated Vanity Mirror, Front Reading Lamps." I'm getting a few other details from her but she's looking to get $2500 for it. Let me know if you have any other questions!
  3. http://finance.yahoo.com/news/stocks-open-2014-lower-wall-street-145306348--finance.html PROFIT-TAKERS!!! There will be a lot of up-and-down movements in 2014, both in my bedroom as well as the big boards where investors will get out of lower-risk/lower-return investments and put them back into the market... For me, I've been invested more in real estate over the last 8 years, though my retirement assets and 529s have done well. If the economy continues to improve, my 2014 would be made if I get near asking price for one of the houses I'm selling...
  4. I paid by CC, but after submitting my info it went back to asking me if I want to sign up for Paypal? No confirm...I'll check the site to see if I'm added as a donor on the site. If not I'll definitely resubmit. Much love, Jason.
  5. They were a majority shareholder, with the other ~40% owned by the UAW's healthcare fund. Fiat's purchase of the remaining shares eliminates the need for an IPO (public stock offering) which is pretty much the only other way the UAW would've sold their share. From a business standpoint - all kidding aside about Chrysler - this was a good move for both car companies. F the unions.
  6. OH YOU... Professionally cleaned...looks better than new!
  7. http://www.autoblog.com/2014/01/01/fiat-buys-chrysler-4-point-35-billion-no-ipo/ Imported from Detroit...pwnd by Italians :gabe: First DaimlerChrysler (German), now FIATchrysler (Italian)...awaiting a sale to Geely or Renault in the future.
  8. Fook me that's a stellar looking GT-R! Truck is no slouch either. Welcome to the site! :thumbup::thumbup:
  9. Mahogany table with clawfoot legs. Comes with two extra leaf inserts. Originally purchased in Cleveland for $400 5 years ago. Some scratches but in excellent shape. Dimensions: 72" long, 46" wide. Each leaf is an additional 18", so with both leaves the table becomes 9 feet long. 10 highback chairs with black faux leather. Also in excellent shape, bought 5 years ago for $50/chair. 6 fit fine, add the leaves and 10 are seated comfortably. $300 for the set. Getting rid of it because we have a new set on delivery to go with the new paint/decor of our dining room. (Went from a cherry/mahogany color scheme to the orange/brown/earthy tones you now see in the background pics. New table/chairs is a much lighter wood color.) http://www.columbusracing.com/forums/picture.php?albumid=693&pictureid=7422 http://www.columbusracing.com/forums/picture.php?albumid=693&pictureid=7423 http://www.columbusracing.com/forums/picture.php?albumid=693&pictureid=7424
  10. This was professionally cleaned after our housefire a few months ago. Still wrapped in plastic, opened to take pictures. We were going to reuse it, but ended up redoing our kitchen and got an oven/microwave built-in instead. Works perfectly. 1100W I believe? Comes with the wall bracket for mounting. Also has lights and a fan at the bottom: great for mounting over a range. $100 http://www.columbusracing.com/forums/picture.php?albumid=693&pictureid=7421 http://www.columbusracing.com/forums/picture.php?albumid=693&pictureid=7420 http://www.columbusracing.com/forums/picture.php?albumid=693&pictureid=7419 http://www.columbusracing.com/forums/picture.php?albumid=693&pictureid=7418

  12. Can you just post a video to someone elses' Facebook page???
  13. Netflix. Redbox instant isn't providing their own content (Turbo FAST, House of Cards, etc...) so they have to pay catch-up. GL w/dat.

    Dress Shoes

    J+M's suck harder than Marc; made overseas and have questionable quality. AE's are made in the USA (Wisconsin) and kewl peeps wear dem. I had one purr I bought in early 2000s and I was shocked at how much better all 6 purr of my AE's feel...

    Dress Shoes

    I get all my shoes at Allen Edmonds outlet in Jeffersonville. $90-$150 for a purr of shoes that would last you your lifetime, and wear like slippers. Once they wear out, you can resole/reheel them for $30-$40, or send them back directly to Allen Edmonds in WI for $95 to have them totally redone.
  16. Mike, I would've loved to get your LS400 back when you had it! I guess your Supra will do... Everyone's going to get a shot. You know I'm not shy...i'll be askin' muhhfuggas if they want to be interviewed.
  17. In an effort to better capture CC&C on a weekly basis (even during the winter months) I'm going to start doing videos of cars and owners on Saturday mornings. This is something that's been kicked around by myself and a few others for awhile. We picked up a new iMac over Christmas and a friend is donating his SLR and his experience with editing videos for a few weekends to get me up and running. I'll do most of the vids/pics myself, and I'm going to learn on iMovies how to edit everything together. I realize I'm not that tech-savvy, but we'll see how this comes along. Starting this weekend - regardless of weather - I'd love to have at least 2-3 people stop by with a decent car (i.e. not my tee-ruk:)). I want to videotape us talking about your ride (similar to Jay Leno's Garage) and then I'll do some close-up videos and still shots of the car. My goal is to get enough material to make a 1-2 minute finished vid of a CC&C owner and their car, to put up on FaceBook and our website. Ideally, if I can get a few owners on a weekend, I'll string them together to make a longer video; it all depends on the attendees. For the last 5 years, CC&C has been all about the people, not just the rides. While pictures are great, I want to capture the owners' passion for their cars...especially the vast majority of our attendees that make their ride their own (I'm thinking of you guys, Doc, Tom, Farkas' Bros!!! ). So much of the customization tweaks - good and bad! - aren't captured in a still. I'm going to change that with these vids... Please let me know if you're planning on stopping by. For the first few weekends, I'll also need someone that can take video (hold the camera) for the conversation part. I don't want this to be a "selfie". I figure this would take 10-15 minutes. It would be pretty raw, not trying to do multiple takes here. But, we'll see where this goes... This isn't going to be a high-production event; just low-key but enough to capture what a Saturday morning is like at CC&C. Just an FYI and a call for support. Thanks! :thumbup:
  18. Niiiiice! Congrats, Derek!!! http://blog.wingtip.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/steve_mcqueen_bulitt.jpg
  19. Jason, even the most frugal of us can't get by on a pittance, whether in the form of gov't/insurance assistance or otherwise. Especially considering the medical expense costs, I would definitely welcome the charity of others, especially family. The amazing thing about social media is the ability to mobilize charitable causes. I respect your resistance to "help". When the start-up bank I was working with failed in 2008 and I was out of work for a few months, I never applied for gov't assistance out of pride as anything else. In retrospect, I think that was a McSteak; the programs to help me and my family were there and I should've taken advantage of them. Get something formal together for donations and watch what happens. Certainly don't budget for any of it, but appreciate the blessing of any charity given by others.
  20. Good luck! Liking the train ride idea... If she's anything like your avatar, she's a keeper. :thumbup::thumbup: EDIT: Just saw the ring. Nicely done! If she's loved you before that thing she's definitely going to be happy afterwards.
  21. Craig, moving this to the Corral since you have a title and are looking to sell the whole car. GLWS! :thumbup:
  22. So, you did get checked out at the scene by a paramedic? You should know your own body...i.e. go to the ER immediately if it gets any worse after today. That being said, I personally wouldn't worry about it unless it persists through the new year (Weds/Thurs). Make sure you're taking it easy with any sort of strenuous activity...really easy to exacerbate the situation. Tylenol/Ibuprofen/Aspirin and plenty of water will be your friend.
