Dude I feel your pain, I was forced to sell "my baby" years ago due to General Electric closing down our lamp making plant here in Memphis, Tn. They boxed up every machine and set up shop over sea's in hungry.
I don't buy anything GE anymore!

Man, that's a damn shame. Just makes you proud to be an American huh! :oops: :cry:

Guess I can mark GE off my list!

looks like GE just went off my xmas list and everyday list also..let them in hungry buy there stuff from now on since they[GE]likes hingry so much.. :evil: :evil: sore spot for me when USA company does this

Glad to hear the support guys, these companies need to realize the ramifacations of their actions.
Bottom line is buying their products supports the company and if more people followed suit with us then maybe they would quit moving factories over sea's.
I worked their ten years to the date, I worked hard and strived everday to make a difference and do a good job only to have them ungraciously close the doors to make their stock go up one tenth of one percent.
Merry Christmas

You don't even want me to get on my soap box about this. Anybody want to PM me I'd be glad to vent a little! :evil:

This is my first post on the forum of Racing Junk. :)

The title didn't say it had to be a race ride. :P :D

Here is my daily driver:

4.7L SOHC V8
Automatic transmission
4x4

Will run a 12-minute quarter mile. :lol: :lol: :oops:

all cars are welcome..thanks for posting..I LIKE BLACK !

Will run a 12-minute quarter mile. 8) 8)

IS THAT WITH THE AIR ON!!!!---TOOOO FAST FOR ME :lol: :lol: :lol: ===LIVELY

NICE LOOKING TRUCK :lol: :lol: :lol:

In all seriousness, I don't know what 1/4 mile it will run as I have never had it to a track. I get into it a little once in a while driving to see what it will do, though. 8) It's not slow, but it's not the fastest truck either. :) I do, however, wish it would rev a little past 53-5400 though on the 1-2 shift at WOT. :oops:

Nice pic's and cars. Really like the old Digger! The Olds is coming along nicely as well! :)

Thanks,any progress on your's lately?

WOW!! So many awesome rides

Just spoke with Ron Owens about a new aerospace aluminum thru bolt third member. Should be getting it ordered this week or first of next, (Ron if your reading this I'll be calling you back soon). Working on the frame rails, and crossmember bracing now. Then have some bracketry to rework on the rear housing. I'll try to get some photo's up soon.

Hop to it! :D Wanna see!

OLDS48;;
THE OLDS LOOKING GOOD..SURE WOULD LIKE TO SEE PICS OF THAT DIGGER I SEE IN BACKGROUND.

What you see of the digger is what it was when I got it.I bought from a friend as a roller.So,he is gonna keep the motor/trans and rear tires and wheels.Right now it is stripped down to bare frame awaiting me deciding what color to paint it so I can get rolling.Any suggestions? Thanks for the compliment,too.

i feel kinda ashamed to post my vehicle pic on here after looking though all the other unbeleavably awsome ride but *shrug* i love em

my junk yard special s-10..... i think the thing cost me about $800 to build and 600 of that was for the snazzy looking intake..truck was $50 the rest is spare parts i had laying around... 350, 2 speed powerglide

and my baby... just spent a small fortune on a complete fram off restoration, now im too poor to put a set of decent rims or a real engine in it
355, 2.02 64cc heads, 12.1:1 comp.. cam, headers exhaust and rpm intake.... its a real cheap engine... but she bangs

Man,I like your wheels on the Firebird!!!I wouldn't change them!Truck looks good,too.Ever weigh your truck?I always wondered what them little guys weigh.What is the name of the paint on your Firebird?Looks good!!!

THERE IS NEVER ANYTHING WRONG ON A CHEAP TRUCK[AS LONG AS IT IS SAFE]---THE FIREBIRD IS GREAT LOOKING/ THE WHEELS LOOK GOOD/ AND THE PAINT IS AWESOME!!!---WOW A FORD GUY JUST SAID THAT :lol: :lol: ---LIVELY

ssshhhhhh....i did notice a ford :oops: in the background,don't tell lively

i have weighed my truck but now for the life of me i cant remember what it was... i know my bird weighed in at 3200lbs.. i beilieve the truck may have been around 2900lbs (dont quote me on that... honestly cant remember)

the paint is a toyota prius colour
dark pearl red metallic (code 3q3)

as for the wheels there just factory pmd's painted black (14" frount, 15" back) I was looking at some billit vantiques pmd 17" rims.. so im not really changing the type of wheel just want somthing a bit bigger

and yes that is a ford in the background.... T_T i have forsaken my chevy brotherin... but new chevy's just cost to much

thanks...... and as for being safe... errr.... ummm.... :?... its umm... fun :wink: *laughs nervously*

very good looking Firechicken. 8) cant go wrong with a 1st gen camaro or firebird! all around awsome cars! 8) :twisted:

if you get a good set of dumped headers on that truck you will probably see a better gain with the tunnel ram you put on there. dual 4bbl tunnel ram with stock cast iron exh mani's is like trying to play a football game with your mouth taped shut.

HEY--MY RANCHERO IS CHEAP[ PARTS WISE]--WILL BE SCARY BUT ALOT OF FUN[ BUT WILL BE CAGED JUST IN CASE :oops: :oops: ]---LOOK AT" 63 GAS "IN SHOWOFF----I LIKE HOMEBUILT MACHINES[ THAT IS WHERE IT ALL STARTED!!!!----LIVELY IN ILLINOIS

lol yeah.... but that costs money... and im cheap

she's plenty fun enough for me as it is... no sense dumping more money into it... soon as i get a real engine built up for my car ill be slapping the engine thats in it now into the s-10 then maybe ill think about improvements

*sigh* i have to many projects on the go... also need to start on my 70 wildcat and my 54 ford f-100 :?... also wanna (thats a big wanna) build me a drag car... somthing retarded like... hmm... a tubbed tube frame mg miget with a blown bbc?.. anyways itll be a fun year ^_^

Hey youve got nothing to feel bad about! NICE bird, and truck!!!!! David.
