    Nice pics, dark, keep em coming.
    I bet at that speed your cheeks would move like in a wind tunnel.

    I think it's a 69, not sure. I saw it on a lot as I was going out fishing one night. I stopped to look at it and found myself thinking of the old days and working on cars in my cousin's garage after school. Boy, what memories. And then I thought if I brought this one home, my wife would kill me.
    A man can dream, she can't yell at me for dreaming, right?

    Yeah, and you get the best sex of your life, right before you get married. After she hooks you, say goodbye to those awesome BJs.

    I would love to drive that 2000hp pontiac, even for a few minutes, it must be awesome to rev it up and feel the power!
    Here is one I took of a red Vette I saw driving around, not much work needed on this one.

    10 minutes in that car, Speedy. It would be like catching 2 50 lb bass, one after the other. Cool pics, guys.

    Bumper car restoration -

    Sent in by Surfstix, thanks!

    Yes, you read that right; these little beasties are street legal. They run on either Kawasaki or Honda motorcycle engines and co-opt vintage bumper car bodies into the most awesome form of mini-car we've seen in too long.
    There are seven of these little monsters floating around California , and they're all the creation of one man, Tom Wright, a builder in the outskirts of San Diego who figured the leftovers of the Long Beach Pike amusement park needed a more dignified end than the trash heap. They were originally powered by two cylinder Harley Davidson Motorcycle engines but they rattled like heck because of the two cylinder vibration and Tom replaces them with four cylinder Honda or Kawasaki 750's and a couple have been measured as capable of 160 MPH, which is terrifyingly fast in machines with such a short wheelbase. By the way, they are almost indestructible in accidents!

    Thanks for posting that strikezone, awesome shots, the fastback Mustang smoking the tires in reverse and those vintage hot rods blowing through that small town, great action set to great music!

    Speedy here is the shell of an old wreck I found in western NJ one weekend when driving around. An old roadster?
    Could something like this be restored?

    Good luck with that one! I mean, the shell is ok, not rusted like many that old, but no motor or drivetrain? Or maybe he has that stored somewhere. Otherwise you're talking big dollars to buy all that stuff either new or NOS, and then wouldn't it take away from the stock value?
    I don't know, maybe speedy could restore it.
