Title: Dad's Cars
Post by: Soul on January 25, 2012, 09:34:27 AM
Dad wanted me to upload these so he had a record of what he bought and sold this year, figured I'd share.

This is part of what he has licensed right now, yes he has a problem

Btw let me know what you think of the 79 Zephyr and 79 Mustang. Those are Dad's play toys. They were cool in late 80's but some car trends don't last (looking at air shocks and side pipes lol)

The 79 mustang was originally a rental car and came with that color scheme (I think it was a hurst edition or something like that), its got a built 302 in it. It currently is tore apart getting a stroker thats still in pieces in the garage.

About the air shocks, your cars are jacked WAY up with 2 tire sizes bigger in the back though are you lol? Kinda they same as shackles on leaf spring cars.

Personally I like the 72 ranchero, that car just looks mean. It is a gt500, we bought it and got a motor out of Kentucky that was in a race boat but it kinda got put on back burning while we did my car. The guy we got it from panted the entire thing red, including trim, to keep it from rusting. While it looks ugly it did its job. The bumper and all the bed trim is pretty solid.

Ranchero gets my vote. A little work and it would be super shagy.

I guess we have a different breed down here, most people with air shocks on their cars air them up max, have the butt a foot higher and look like match box cars.

Ya the 72 Ranchero is an awesome car, only downside is it ways 4 metric tons.
