[quote=Cabal][quote=Allan from Fallbrook]
A good friend of mine in high school had (I believe) a 1969 or 1970 Cuda in “Hairy Canary” yellow. He pulled the 340 motor and dropped in a baaaaad ass 440 Magnum with a similar set up to yours. I’ll never forget that pistol grip shifter he had. I had an 8 ball, but that pistol grip was perfect for the real short throw on that Cuda.
The most truly frightening vehicle I ever locked horns with (and he kicked my ass mightily) was a 1969 Challenger R/T that the owner had dropped a heavily modified 426 Race Hemi into. He told me, after embarrassing me horribly in the 1/4 mile, that he was turning somewhere north of 600hp.
If I had the jingle, I’d love to lay my hands on a 1965 Stingray with a 427TP. Get it in the gorgeous red with Rally wheels and nothing but Beach Boys on the radio.
I loved Tron, by the way. I saw that movie at the Century Theaters in San Jose in 1982, right after seeing Journey in concert (“Escape” Tour at Oakland Coliseum) that same summer (they did the closing song, “Only Solutions”). I drove my Mach I to that damn movie, too. Man, getting old sucks.[/quote]
Allan/Flu – Holy hole in the donut Batman, it took me 5 minutes to find my post, which was only a couple of days ago!! This thread needs to die. I think I’ll start another thread after this post.
The old vettes are classics. I love them too. My challenger had good low end torque, but was never that fast in the quarter. Last time I aggressively raced it, I blew out my 3 speed trick shifter tranny. It cost a small fortune to fix, certainly more than a lowly grocery store bagboy could afford. Eighties were good times. We were simple juvenile delinquents tooling around town, yacking on CBs and trying to pick up chicks. Saw lots of good concerts as well – Stones, Who, Rush, and even Ted the Man Nugent. My only regret was missing Led Zep. I had 4 tix and 2 weeks before the concert, Bonham kicked the bucket. I was truly depressed for a month. Not a big Journey fan ever since Greg Rollie left. Ironic that the lead singer is now a Phillipino kid from youtube.
C’mon getting old isn’t all that bad. You have lots more money now to buy that overcorrected house that you can atm to death in the future to buy that stingray. Carpe diem.[/quote]
Cabal: Speaking of the ’80s, I saw the “farewell” tours for both The Who and The Stones (’82 I think?) and bought up all their merchandise at the concerts because they weren’t ever going to tour AGAIN. Yeah, what a dumbass I was. They’re all in their 80s and touring like crazy.
Concert of all concerts, though: US Festival ’83! I saw Rik Emmett of Triumph fall drunk off the stage and jump right back up and keep playing. Good times, man.

July 17, 2009 at 4:50 AM #432194paddyohParticipantIn case you forgot, my original title for this forum was:
“Time for Jeff Bridges to dump Hyundai….”
The topic understandably turned to automobiles, manufacturers, etc. – which was fine by me. I’ve made it clear that I agree with Rt. 66 and his/her belief in buying American made cars, etc. He has made his case so thoroughly I honestly do not know what I can add to defend the documented quality of the American made automobile or the mass screwing of the American blue collar worker.
The bigger picture to me has become American apathy towards American Made goods – particularly cars manufactured in the U.S.A.
It just baffles me that there is so much venom spewed by Americans against American auto workers and American made cars. It would seem that much of that comes from outright jealousy that the American auto worker had the nerve to make a decent enough wage to own a home and send his or her kids to college. That jealousy is then channeled towards the American car itself.
Then there appears to be guilt. The shame of, in a way, selling out one’s own country during a time of nearly unparalleled crisis, by buying a third world automobile and then trying to justify it by blaming it on unfounded, inferior American quality.
There are no doubt people here who have purchased an American made car that turned out to be a lemon. They have a legitimate gripe and may never buy anything other than an imported car again.
But, all the jealousy, guilt, shame, anger or whatever else is the motivation, does not change the fact that we are all still Americans. Maybe, at the end of the day, we can stop sweating the small stuff and pull together to help fix what the politicians cannot.
By buying American again, or even consciously making an effort to buy American made again, right now, today, even if it hurts or costs more, we can make a tiny step forward in restoring our sorely-needed manufacturing base. Americans did it during the World Wars. Why not now ?
Given the pickle we are in, I don’t think you can consider it protectionism. Nor blind patriotism, or being foolish with your money. Right now, today, it just makes sense.
Please take a few minutes of your time to ask Jeff Bridges to use his clout as a major celebrity and publicly renounce the Hyundai commercials and jump on the American Made bandwagon.

Jeff Bridges staff and Jeff himself are getting fairly annoyed by his heckling….Anyone want to place bets on when Jeff’s attorney sends a cease and desist letter to paddyoh?
“Hi – I think it’s time to stop your crusade on Jeff’s site now. I have total respect for your campaign and I think it is admirable that you are so dedicated but you’ve made your point. I haven’t talked to Jeff about this so I have no idea whether he’s considering doing another commercial for Hyundai or whether your posts have had an influence on his decisions for the future. However, your posts are showing up on Google news alerts and could possibly start to annoy Jeff. So, I obviously can’t control what you post on other sites or how inflammatory you want to be but I am asking you to please stop posting here unless you want to discuss other subjects.
Thank you!”
