  1. I used to go to car shows with my father when I was a teenager. I helped him with a frame off restoration on a '65 mustang. VERY clean car when it was finished. I noticed the same thing in car shows. If it's a car club, then they make sure their members get most everything, unless your car is TRULY worthy of praise. And even then you'd be lucky. I just don't understand how a pt cruiser can win over anything at all. Actually, I really don't understand how they made it off the dealer lots....
  2. Are the laws here different? I know they changed it in Indiana because of all the theft. Out there you have to have the vehicle registration or title, so they can document it.
  3. Well, as long as you have documentation of selling it to him, you'll be fine. Otherwise you run the risk of him getting it impounded with it still in your name. Could get ugly there. More than likely won't happen though. And he'd have to come all the way back here to take you to court. Doesn't seem like the truck would even make it back here anyway.
  4. lol! I suddenly feel very stupid for giving a legitimate answer... I think the previous owner must have lost the extra adapters whilst spending large amounts of time sideways with this bolted to his car.
  5. I'm selling the tail lights from Toby's old '95 to make enough to buy the wheels back from you! lol
  6. *ahem* I'm still waiting on you to call!! lol I'm glad you guys liked it, I had a lot of fun writing it. I had bought an old, tired, '85 MR2, and it had a rice cannon, and this "thing" stuck on the trunk lid. I sure as hell didn't want either of them. It's just been sitting in the closet and I'm sick of my girlfriend bitching at me to get rid of it. So seriously... don't you want to go to the moon? Buy it.
  7. I've got to start bringing my camera when I go!
  8. Thank you, I appreciate it! Haha! Yeah, my gf didn't get it, but I knew others would! I was sick of it taking up closet space. Someone on here wanted it though, I'm waiting for him to give me a call.
  9. Oh, and the reason for building the engine in the '86: http://i287.photobucket.com/albums/ll126/Captain_Panic/AE92GZEDLIMAP009-1.jpg On an n/a. Go big or go home, right? The machine shop had to bore it .030" over to get the cylinder trued. They could only get pistons in twenty thousandths increments, hence the .040" overbore.
  10. Hello everyone, I'm Randall S, otherwise known as "Captain Panic" Not really sure what all info you're looking for so I'll start with what I've got on the road: 1986 Toyota MR2: http://i287.photobucket.com/albums/ll126/Captain_Panic/engineinstall003.jpg http://i287.photobucket.com/albums/ll126/Captain_Panic/Picture016.jpg http://i287.photobucket.com/albums/ll126/Captain_Panic/D1.jpg http://i287.photobucket.com/albums/ll126/Captain_Panic/fixed1.jpg This car has been my best friend, and worst enemy at the same time. List of mods, if you're interested: Short ram air intake ported and polished head bore .040" over 268 cams lightweight flywheel RS*R header 2.25" exhaust high flow cat factory muffler from my '93 MR2 Enkei RPF1's w/ Azenis RT615 full polyurethane bushings, including motor mounts Suspension Techniques lowering springs and swaybars Koni yellows Quaife quick ratio steering rack TRD stage 1 alignment All this crap and it's only dyno'd at 112whp, and 92Lb/ft of torque. FML Yes, I know it's slow, you don't have to tell me. On to the next one: 1993 MR2 Turbo This car was a gift from my GF for a lot of things. It's pretty much stock except for the wheels, intake, and the grapefruit launcher exhaust. http://i287.photobucket.com/albums/ll126/Captain_Panic/sw21.jpg http://i287.photobucket.com/albums/ll126/Captain_Panic/sw20.jpg It's not really boosting right, so driving it is... meh. And lastly: 1971 Datsun 240Z This car is all stock. I wouldn't have it any other way. Why screw up a classic? Though it is for sale if YOU want to screw up a classic. http://i287.photobucket.com/albums/ll126/Captain_Panic/240Z/Z1.jpg http://i287.photobucket.com/albums/ll126/Captain_Panic/240Z/Z2.jpg http://i287.photobucket.com/albums/ll126/Captain_Panic/240Z/Z3.jpg http://i287.photobucket.com/albums/ll126/Captain_Panic/240Z/Zinterior.jpg Over all, I hate rice. I don't even really like 4 cylinders. I can respect all the hard work, time, and money that go into a good build though, no matter what the make/model is. Oh, and I am the author of the "wing ad" on craigslist http://columbus.craigslist.org/pts/1984170808.html. Yes, it's supposed to be stupid, and I hope you had as much fun reading it as I had writing it. So there you go. Flame away. Just make it funny. I would do the same for you.
