Smoking is not a crime? Nurse? http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_9SN3vDX99Yg/TPo16TDsAII/AAAAAAAAAHc/NDWNNmVLPP8/s1600/sex+is+not+love+-+oh+the+irony.jpg

I heard it on the Blitz last night - first time I listened to that station in months. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lw-70QfVGU0 Like it!

As a Christian, a car nut, and a man that quite frankly had one too many Tito's-on-ice, I teared up at this documentary. What an incredible movie. Please.....if you've EVER had either 1)passion for something in your life, or 2) ever driven a car on a race course, go see this movie on Netflix.

Wow. Yup. That's what I want. :thumbup:

I'm crashing. Getting a good fire going, Tito's on ice, Netflix, mmmmmm... Cars and Coffee in the morning!!!

vert for sure. "4-wheel Harley"...foot-high windshield, no windows. Single rollbar for me, nothing for the passenger.

Actually, when you put it that way then YES, we do have a lot of exotics! Thankfully, there aren't a lot of ELITISTS behind the wheel when they drive up to Cup O' Joe...

Half of CC&C is not on CR on a regular basis. I'll be driving in my '00 Passat, or an early '80s pickup if I can get it started. Elitists can EAD; sez so on my website. :gabe:

Those that know me, know I've had an old, dusty, rockhard, 10+ year old stiffy for the FFR Cobra. I really like the GTM and Hot Rod, but my wife only likes the looks of the Cobra. SWMBO must be obeyed. :fuuuu:

https://cvg53.cvgs.net/Main/careerportal/Job_Profile.cfm?szOrderID=112762&szReturnToSearch=1&szWordsToHighlight= If you have any experience dealing with HNW peeps, this is a great spot possibly leading into a Private Banker position down the road. Ideal candidate would have retail banking or business sales experience, and wanting to make a lateral move to managing a book of existing clients and Private Banking new clients; service needs and cross-sell other opportunities when the timing is good.

I've used both places. They are both good, but I would recommend md trans for sure.

My bad! Cars and coffee this saturday... http://Www.columbuscarsandcoffee.net

I'd 100% vote for a "Paul/Colbert in 2012" ticket. http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0112/71366.html Hell, Reagan was an actor for most of his life and look at what a good prez he was!

http://www.factoryfive.com/whatsnew/tech/coyote/installkit.html Yummy! As the Coyote gets its kinks worked out, and the aftermarket gets more robust, this will definitely be the way I want to go with my future Cobra. :thumbup:

404 Not Found, Mate!

I'd restructure your question to ask...What would the 'utes of today do without FACEBOOK? FB can go DIAF, btw...

On the flip side, my job would be much, much harder... I'm sure a lot of other people on CR wouldn't HAVE A JERB...

I stopped by to see Mike at M&M. We spoke on monday (after delays delays delays for weeks) but he was FINALLY getting around to my motor this week. Good timing on my part...it was getting it's cylinders honed as I was there. Block was also bored out .030. Block was clean and decked; looked good! Head was magnafluxed but still bare. Crankshaft was in good shape, but the cam was toast: wear wasn't too bad on the lobes, but you could see some nasty chipping on the edges and pock marks, like casting imperfections. Full rebuild, new Comp cam, flat-top pistons and rings, new valvesprings, gaskets...reuse con rods and crankshaft...also resurfacing my flywheel. $1390 with tax! Gotta love it when the price goes down from what you thought it was going to be... That is definitely a chunk of change, but to see what they are doing made me realize that this truck will either go forever, or I will put it into another Ford truck down the road. I called Mark at MD Trans by Doc's place and they said they would get the T-18 4-speed inspected and resealed. That will help me get both engine and transmission from Delaware in one trip. Overall my cheap-a$$ is slightly hurt by the expenditure of cash, but I have a strong sense of confidence that this is the right thing to do for my Ford, as well as a great - and necessary! - experience as a car guy. I'd rather be rebuilding a common Ford engine for a hobby truck, than have to get raped by hurriedly replacing a blown engine in my VW or Honda. I should've repainted the frame with this relatively mild weather we've been having...or at least the front part before the engine/trans goes in. I still will need to modify the driveshaft to accept the fixed yoke on the T-18, as well as the fixed yoke on the axle. I was hoping to get this driveable by the end of January, but I don't think that's going to happen at this point. More to come... I also did a full budget of everything I need for the rest of the truck, from hoses and belts to shocks, clutch, brakes etc...$700. Not too bad...

Yeah...but you know Ford would never do that. It would cannibalize the Taurus SHO. Best hope is the 2.5L turbo 5cyl from the Focus ST in Europe! 300hp+

I officially change my vote from Romney to Paul. Please adjust this non-scientific poll accordingly. Thank you, NPR and CR.

.. If anyone needs help "voting", Howard could join you in the booth for a little ELECTION DAY COVERAGE...*giggidy giggidy* :gabe:
