For Christmas, I want to get Skye a project of her own. She is really wanting a Chevelle or at least something that looks like one. Trying to stay under $2k for the roller unless you know a decent driver for a little more. Just wanting to build her a 12~ second "weekend cruiser" and I don't have $30k to spend making an S4 that slow so she will have to settle I guess...


she wants something that looks like a 68-72 Chevelle. So far, she has stated that she likes all of the fallowing, if I missed something similar looking, let me know...

Chevelle: 68-72
Nova: 68-74
Torino: 70-71
Skylark: 68-74
LeMans: 68-72
Duster: 70-76
Charger: 71-74
Cutlass: 68-72
Satellite: 73-74
roadrunner: 71-75

I thought she wanted a V8 S10? Maybe I should call my buddy up and see if he still has his late Nova 2 door.

Going to try for one of the above first... the V8 S10 was just something she wanted because at the time, I had the money. the mustang was suppose to be hers but it is just too much car for her right now. Just want something I can throw a nice 383/700R4 into...

LOL! The Cadillac was too fast for her! Granted, 350hp+ in a big ole FWD car is not the best first experience with any type of decent power. Torque steer about made her piss her pants.

she's not a fan of that body style... she wants the body style like your duster... I personally want an older Chevelle or LeMans myself but I have enough cars for now...

Nah... absolutely NO interest in a 4th gen. Even if he was giving it away, I would just take it then scrap it. one of the ugliest cars ever built IMO...

WAIT... you bought it? Did that Mother Fucker sell my turbine wheels with it? I let him barrow two so he didn't have to keep it jacked up. He better not have sold those fuckers...

yes it has two on the front, i sold the car, i can make it right with you though, i came out way ahead on the deal even after he drove the car through the back of my truck. not on here to piss anyone off.

KobleTsi
09-30-2010, 07:52 PM
okay just talked to the guy that bought it i'm going to trade him two ten holes for your turbines back, so i'll have them waiting for you when you come pick up my nova

sLoWnStEaDy
09-30-2010, 07:58 PM
Still waiting on some pics of the Nova. Also wanting to hear what the hell happened with your truck and what not!!


Also, it wasn't your issue to make right. There are/were ABSOLUTELY ZERO "hard feelings" toward you. You had no idea what the situation was therefore it was not AT ALL your fault. Thank You very much for getting them back for me though! I saved those off my Capri and was planning to use them on my '87...

well i told the guy, i'd get the car came from davenport, debated to drive my mint 05 ram, or my f350, it being windy that day i decided to drive the duelly, so i drive up there, he said, hey u want to winch it up or just have me pull it up?, i said "oh it runs?" he said "yeah just no breaks", so i told him well just pull it up and ill throw this tire infront of it... so instead of pulling up and clutching in, he drove up, didnt press in the clutch just froze up, and drove through the back of my truck, good thing i drove the 350, the wife would've killed me if i smashed my nice truck. anyways i got the car for cheaper, i think i gave like 300 for it, sold it for 400 a tarus driver, and a t bird super coupe, delievered the super coupe to a guy in chicago and he traded me for a nitrioused 90 lx super clean, 100% straight and not a single dent, had a lot of shit done. the ten holes were getting scrapped anyways and if this ever happend to me i would hope someone would make it right but i know theres alot of people that dont even care. i will try to get some pics of nova, sucks u dont get picture messages

That sucks about your truck! Also makes me laugh because Dustin and I both offered him more than that for the car! Hell, I offered him $300 just for the transmission and flywheel. IDK, I am not a big fan of those guys for quite a few reasons but they sell shit crackhead cheap sometimes so I kind of stay in touch with them...

yeah- i offered him $450 when he wanted $800. week or so later, he told me he needed money and would take $550- i offered $450. a couple weeks after that, he said i could get it for $475. i told him i had too much time to think about it, and decided i didnt want it anymore.

had he taken my first offer, id probably be tear-assing around in a beat to shit stang right now.

haha... I told you that's how they are. Like the truck he wanted like $1500 for then took like $650. Or the nitrous kit he wanted $600 for then took like $250, or the 351W he wanted $500 for then let it sit in my garage until I just said fuck it and gave it away. Hell, he wanted $2500 for the red mustang, no idea what he actually sold it for.
that is the main reason I still associate with them. The days they need cash like RIGHT NOW and are selling shit dirt cheap, they call me first. Plus they hang out with some pretty decent street cars. Brandon Cambell has a prettynice big block Buick (not sure what it is. looks like a Grand National but it isn't a GN)
