Maybe you can take a vacation 4 your 18th birthday

I like to ride topless.
I may even let you work the stick shift.

1957 Chevy Bel-air and put a 454 in it. My dad has a 327 in his and it flys. He doesnt wanna drop a 454 in it cause it wouldnt be original then :rolleyes: Oh well. I personally would do another truck. s-10 with V-8 :D Thats what I am doing once I get the R done.

out of those cars, I would get a chevy II though. Had a lime green one, with a 327 and the thing was fast ! Then we put the motor in the 57 chev.

i chose camaro but would suggest an old trans am or firebird;)

well when i say camaro i mean all 3 pretty much. i want to stay with chevy. i'm not a dodge fan and i don't want a mustang. i wouldn't mind a 442 but they are big and heavy like a chevelle. thats why a camaro or nova/chevy II is the way i am going to go. i'm not looking to spend a whole lot for the fact i want to rebuild the whole thing and put a 397 in it. its pretty much going to be a car that i just haul *** in. i probably won't even paint is just put nice wheels and tires and leave it primed.

Pffft, Mustang Cobra= FORD jk.

Nothen against ford, I just dont like 'em. I would rather own a chev or dodge over one. I have respect for the old fords from the 60s and the ford lightning, but other than that, yuck.:ermm:

Ford circles their problems :blah:

how bout a 70 El Camino? i got knoe becuae i wanted a truck and a fast car but couldnt decide which and i alway loved Chevelles so i bought a 70 Elky. not its got the following in it.

383 stroker, Pro - Tourqer heads with oversized stainless swirl valves, full race port and polish, Comp Cams Pro/Race aluminum 1.6/1 roller rockers, comp cams Hi-Tech +5/100ths pushrods, 10;1 keith black hypertetic pistons, SCAT H beam rods, SCAT 3.75 in stroker crank, Comp Cams Xtreme energy cam w/ .496 exhaust opening and .500 intake, Edlebrock preoformer intake, holley 750 CFM dubble pumper, hooker super comp headers, 18in glasspacks w/ full 3 in pipe dumped after the cab.

its got about 500 rear wheel horsepower. i just got the thing back together and still havnt broke it in good yet though. about another 200 miles. it will spin the 12 inchers on the back at 1/4 throttle. its so freakin powerfull its crazy.

i also have a set of Summit Aluminum roller tipped Rockers that were put on the motor but the valve covers would fit over em so i baught the comp's. they're 1.6:1 ratio if any one wants em im lookin for 240$ + shipping. i paid 280 for em. just PM me!

Looks like all the girls on here would rather cruise in my 69 big block convertable vette
than any of these other choices.

But who wouldnt I guess.

Does anyone here know what a Lumina Z34 is?
3.4 v6 DOHC 24 valves 210 hp front wheel drive:eek2:
It runs real good for a v6. PITA to work on though.

Anything in your poll wont be a bad idea IMO.

Kawboyz beware

At lease it is Not a Ford your deciding on. My buddy has a 69 Nova SS. Talk about a screamer. It has a stone crusher trans. and The Motor was done up. But it is still a matching Numbers Car with alot of original stuff still on it . That is what counts.
