rockhardzj Posted August 20, 2007 Posted August 20, 2007 The little background story: This past weekend, I was helping out my friend do her rear brakes, and we decided to axle seals and bearings. While the rear end was apart, I noticed a few broken parts. Turns up she had a very rare Dana 35 with a trash locker, great, can't find parts in stock anywhere for it on a Saturday night, or a Sunday, and it had to be back together for tomorrow. Well, I had an extra D35 laying around, so we swapped in a open carrier to keep it running for her, and her complaint noise went away, so thats a good thing too. (here's where it gets good) We were talking about his collection of cars which consisted of a 67 Ford Torino GT, and a 68 Mustang Fastback, and he mentioned his dad has a few more toys in the other part of the shop, along with his mid 70's Arctic Cat Panther (snowmobile with a Wankel under the hood), so we take a stroll over there, to reveal nothing other than 2 vipers, a 69 camaro, a 68 mustang, a dual turbo dodge stealth, and wait for it... Wait for it... Wait.... Your getting there.... Can you guess??? This is hard to keep in.... A 2006 Ford GT, red with white stripes, pure sex to my eyes! I told him I'm taking it for a ride next time I am up there, and cruising the rich neighborhoods with it to go find me a woman...
JeepcoMJ Posted August 20, 2007 Posted August 20, 2007 yes yes, that's all nice. but what I really wanna know is... IS HE REALLY PROUD OF THAT ARTIE-CRAP? it's got leopard print seats, it's about as heavy than an RX-1 yamaha 4-stroke, but without the power output, it has no suspension, and worse yet, it's powered by a wanko rotary....EESH. my dad repairs/parts out snowmobiles. know what we do with these? we sell them to idiots who collect arctic-cats for dirt cheep. the guys have to feed their addiction (hmm...sounds like me + jeeps), and it's easy cause they're worthless.... :P
DansGreyMj Posted August 20, 2007 Posted August 20, 2007 the part that confuses me is that u were helping a chick than all of a sudden she turned into a guy with a coll car collection, lol, btw is it a regular stang gt or a shelby
DirtyComanche Posted August 20, 2007 Posted August 20, 2007 the part that confuses me is that u were helping a chick than all of a sudden she turned into a guy with a coll car collection, lol, I thought that was kinda f'd too. But I figured I was just having an acid flashback or something :nuts:
tjbliley Posted August 20, 2007 Posted August 20, 2007 :needpics: Somebody had to say it. The cars and her.
rockhardzj Posted August 20, 2007 Author Posted August 20, 2007 No, I was helping a girl with her Jeep, at her Neighbor's shop, next door. His shop has the nice collection. There are two different people.
pingpong Posted August 20, 2007 Posted August 20, 2007 :needpics: Somebody had to say it. The cars and her. what a true statement.... did you at least get some for doing the brake job
rockhardzj Posted August 20, 2007 Author Posted August 20, 2007 No, I needed a way of keeping busy and not making a ton of noise to really piss my neighbor off, damn asshat threw a party... Oh well, I got to have fun doing some axle work, and see some sweet cars, my weekend was 2 thumbs up!

Huh, kinda dissapointed, after all that waitin around I figured you would at least have some pics of that chick's rearend after it's all fixed up. Now that would be worth seein. :popcorn: :popcorn: :popcorn:
beaterjeep Posted August 21, 2007 Posted August 21, 2007 There's only two things in there that caught my attention. The vipers, and the TT stealth. The rest to me is just, meh.
88swampedmj Posted August 21, 2007 Posted August 21, 2007 iam with opsled we need pics of her "rearend"... but eh my girlfriend will be back in town soon 8)
Oizarod115 Posted August 21, 2007 Posted August 21, 2007 i hope you mean the actual GT... cuase those are amazing. search for the topgear test run of one on you-tube.. :eek: :eek: they ran one around their track fast as hell.
possum Posted August 21, 2007 Posted August 21, 2007 My old boss had a 2006 GT. He had the Ford racing exhaust. And a underdrive pulley on the supercharger. Let me tell you from personal experience. 190mph on the expressway+crazy man at the wheel=cleaning your undies out when you get back to the shop. :chillin:

Styled similarly like the old racing GT's from the 60's, but modernized, faster, and more stable. One hell of a car to die for. And it is registered in NY as a street car, which is pretty rad.
DansGreyMj Posted August 21, 2007 Posted August 21, 2007 i thought you meant a stang gt, i like this one http://turbofordgt.com/ ( watch the vid)
speed_racer Posted August 21, 2007 Posted August 21, 2007 Yeah, sure, that's frickin' hot, but what benefit is this thread to us?! Haha!! Once again!! :wpwp:
