  1. Another year, another new package for the oldest model lineup sold in America without a major redesign (so it feels)... http://www.thetruthaboutcars.com/2018/03/shake-like-polaroid-picture-new-shakedown-package-challenger/#more-1616404 Here’s the thing....they are STILL selling a ton of Challengers (over 60k a year!). It’s relatively cheap and the platform works. In a way, I respect that FCA hasn’t needed to redesign this lineup because it hasn’t needed it. Makes me think that the used market will be flush with these things in a few years...
  2. Have not been under it. Not planning to, either.
  3. Guys, price updated. Just texted the owner. He had the A/C redone last year for too much money as his college-age son was using it last year until he got a newer car himself. It really is a good DD, with a little bit of rust in common, lower areas. Once one brake line blew, his shop wanted $1000 to replace all the lines, that's why he's done with it. It will need at least a tow. I'd buy it myself if I wasn't already tight on budget and 4 cars' deep in my list of projects!
  4. She should if only for that terrible speech and Clinton-esque hand gesture. Can you ensure that was a functioning weapon before she cut it? Might be plastic with a steel collar that she cut through. :gabe:
  5. Greg, please....we all know the President of the United States truly is a lost cause at this point. Aside from my intrinsic respect for the office of the Presidency that I have as an American citizen, I struggle every day to find someone that truly is aware of what's going on around the world and is pleased with Trump. I mean, there may be an NRA deal or a tax break here and there...but blind squirrels finding nuts and blah blah blah
  6. It should, as he introduced slavery, genocide, and pestilence to whole Native American societies. In fact, Kerry was talking to his good friend Jeff Bezos, and confirmed that Columbus will not be getting Amazon HQ2 because we're named after a murderer. Kerry confirmed to Bezos that the state is nothing but a bunch of knuckle-dragging racists, and we deserve to pay for the sins of our fathers. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
  7. 25 minutes?????? I expect my free automotive content to be more digestible, sir! (LOLing as I realize I am critical of the artist and his medium) You talking in the beginning past 0:40 was beginning to drone. Walk and talk...show shots of the sketchy wiring while you talk. I'm starting to agree with Grant...if you're wasting your time/editing space to use older editing software on too-long movies, it's not going to have the desired effect.
  8. I'll clarify...I know where the emblems go, I just mean that anything else black on that car (from what I've seen) that isn't gloss black will look weird. I think something small like emblems would be fine, but I would say that matt/flat black WHEELS would be a McSteak on that fine C6Z. If you're going to go with black wheels, I'd make them glossy to go with the large shiny expanses of black in the greenhouse and the back panel.
  9. There's a Charity Gala "Casino Night" on Friday with dealer reps I will be attending. That's as close as it's going to get for me.
  10. My neighbor still has his Impala for sale. I'll get pics...
  11. Nothing else black as an accent (especially matte/flat) will look good against that glossy black rear fascia treatment.
  12. To reintroduce oxygen back into this thread... https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/stormy-daniels-sues-trump-says-hush-agreement-invalid-because-he-n854246 Hey kids, if you’re going to engage a prostitute for an extended series of engagements that you want to keep from your wife, PLEASE make sure to sign the NDA.
  13. Welcome back! Is the Bronco II red? Clean condition, and you’re around NW Columbus?
  14. Fuck. Me. https://jalopnik.com/this-heavy-metal-jaguar-xj6-is-at-the-end-of-your-quest-1823567287 May I be so wealthy...restomods are coming a long way thanks to the like of Singer, Icon Derelicts, etc. I love the hot-rod heritage with a bespoke touch. This thing just talks to me on so many levels. XJ's already look phenominal thanks to their low-slung body lines. Once you drop one, even 18s fill the wheel-wells and make them look amazing.
  15. That F8 Green would look suuuper good with gold/bronze wheels, I think
  16. You have to cut it down shorter. I'll give Tavarish, TheSmokingTire, Bad Obsession Motorsports, Petrolicious and HOONIGAN 12 minutes, but you need to edit it down even more for now. A successful 15-20 min vid comes from someone who's built up a following of subscribers that like his form/content. You need to grab people's attention on a build and keep them interested in more content from you....and it needs to be closer to a daily broadcast so people look forward to seeing an update from Lucore. Good news is you should be able to clear more videos if they are shorter and more focused on parts of a project/build. Plus, the one build time-lapse I watched had dead air on my phone (no music?). At least talk more off camera about what you're doing/why you're doing it or play some music.
  17. Should've guessed you were just updating the build thread, since there were LEAVES ON THE TREES. Thanks, Andrew! Love to see more of this build...
  18. Great to see you back, man. I've definitely fallen in love with 911's to Tilley's point: It's an incredibly over-engineered DD that does everything well. I was talking with some very cool guys at CC&C this past weekend - for some reason there were 8 beefy 911's - there are some great exotic sports cars, but once you go 911 it's tough to see another car with such a strong breadth of capabilities. Great to hear from Jordan as well. I'm not in the market yet, but there will be a time when I'll be looking for a 911 Carrera 4S Cabriolet coming up soon enough.
  19. If Austin's girl is anything like my wifey, they want the newest features. My wife loves our '07 CTS-V (when I'm not driving it) but now she's complaining that she has to plug in her phone for SiriusXM and navigation. Not saying a 2-year old car is outdated, but if we're getting a new car she wants a Tesla. :no:
  20. Can I buy the grille and rearview mirrors from that truck from you cheap? ...and I'm curious what you're going to do with that van?
