Euro/weeb butthurt imminent.

Didn't SSC claim the same thing. If it doesn't go 300 mph, its not a 300 mph car. Enjoy your lies.

Ok

Love it. After years of making dull cars, Honda looks like they're back in the game. Slays Toyota.

I just hope Honda's sportbikes grow some balls soon, as well. The current CBR1000 is junk.

Spotted the stop light drag racing ameritards. The only thing the Camry BTFOs the Accord at is being a fat comfy sloth with a solid wallop of power.

It's the typical muscle car. A one trick pony.

I don't jam out, distracted driving is worse than drunk driving.

>>17539836
I can respect this. Do you listen to music at all? I don't literally mean jam out and not pay attention but is there any music you actually listen to when you drive that you enjoy?

>>17539863
I do but I keep it low because tinnitus and retards everywhere. Mostly NPR classical and soft electronic recently. It changes up every couple months. Before that it was chinese folk and stoner rock. I had a single eurobeat mix for a year at one point because the radio didn't work and I'm lazy. I don't really notice the music half the time.

Seriously though, am I just completely fucked?
I live on disability income from my fucked up back, so I don't even pull $1,000 a month.
There's no way I can properly maintain this car is there?

You should start a blog

You must be short. If you sit tall in your seat, the angle of your eyes to the lane markers is better and you can see the road better. The more parallel your view is to the roadway surface, the more the rain and other car headlights wash out the lane markers. With the washed out lane markers, no wonder you felt bad driving at night.

This is another reason why some people like SUV simply because the height above the road surface gives them a better "look down" angle to see the lane markers and turtles if it rains or if there is oncoming traffic.

>>17538912
No...it's just you. I've been driving since I stole my dad's car at 14, and I'm 52 now...nothing really bothers me anymore...

Its not fair! I was fucking around with bearing wheels decades before it was cool!!

Bloodhound ssc has the land speed record, at 1000mph.

HI TO ALL, MY NAME IS PETER HARRIS I HAVE BEEN A CUSTOM CAR BUILDER FOR MORE THAN 40 YEARS AND I AM SELLING MY OWN 1968 JAGUAR, I GOT THIS JAGUAR OVER 30 YEARS AGO FROM A FRIEND WHO ROLLED IT IN A ACCIDENT AT THAT TIME IT WAS A 2+2 COUPE, I REMOVED THE ROOF PUT IN A 302 FORD ENGINE AND DROVE IT FOR A FEW YEARS TILL THE TRANS WENT THEN IT SAT TILL ABOUT 8 YEARS AGO, I GOT IN MY SHOP A 1971 OLDSMOBILE 442 WITH A BLOWN 455 IN THE REAR AND IT WAS FUN TO DRIVE SO I DRAG THE JAG IN TO THE SHOP AND GOT STARTED.

THE REAR FRAME IS A 1974 CADILLAC FRONT WHEEL DRIVE WITH 2" X 4" 120 WALL RAILS ADDED TO MAKE A FULL FRAME, ROCKERS ON THE BODY WERE OPENED UP FOR THE RAILS TO SLIDE UP IN TO, I WANTED SOME THING WILD SO I INSTALLED A FULL BUILT 500CI 671 BLOWN CADILLAC ENGINE, I DIDN'T HAVE THE JAG FRONT SUSPENSION ANY MORE SO I INSTALLED SPEEDWAYS GASSER STYLE TUBE AXLE AND RACK AND PINON STEERING AND 4 WHEEL POWER DISC BRAKES, THE CAD TORSION BARS WHERE REMOVED FOR COIL OVER SHOCKS.

FRAME IS WHITE WITH SILVER HAMERTONE POWDER COAT.

THE CAD 500 CI WAS FUN BUT GOT TO BE TO MUCH SO 2 YEARS AGO I INSTALLED A 1990 CHEVY TPI 350 ENGINE COMPLETELY REBUILT WITH EDELBROCK HIGH FLOW ALUMINUM PERFORMER HEADS, WIRING FORE CAR IS EZ WIRING, TPI WIRING IS PAINLESS ONLY ABOUT 600 MILES ON THE 350 NOT EVEN BROKE IN YET AROUND 3,000 MILES ON THE CAD TURBO 425 AUTO TRANS.

ALL BODY MODS ARE DONE IN SHEET METAL NO FIBER GLASS WAS USED THE WING IS ALSO SHEET METAL, WINDSHIELD IS A STOCK JAGUAR ROADSTER, FRONT HEADLIGHTS ARE 2004 FORD TAURUS, TAILLIGHTS ARE SPEEDWAYS CATS EYE LED'S, IDIDIT KEYED TILT COLUMN, CENTERLINE WHEELS, DOLPHIN GAUGES, HURST GATE SHIFTER, DASH IS SOLID BIRDS EYE MAPLE, SEATS ARE DATSUN 240Z, FRONT BONNET AND REAR DECK OPEN AND CLOSE WITH LINEAR ACTUATORS.


WHAT LOOKS LIKE SIDE PIPES ARE THE WATER LINES THEY ALSO HAVE A SWITCHED INLINE ELECTRIC WATER PUMP TO HELP THE FLOW THROUGH THE ALUMINUM RADIATOR.


HAD PLANED A TOP BUT NEVER GOT AROUND TO MAKING ONE.

>fully restored
what in the fuck
this is the worst thing I've ever seen
who in their right mind would think that abomination is still a Jag

>>17537817
Thanks you made me so fucking angry.
I don't even give two fucking shits about classic cars and I think etype is overhyped as fuck.
But this is just fucking disgusting.

I mean it's just some totalled old shit rebuilt but even if it was honest and for sale for 300 dollars I'd still be fucking angry.

>>17537299
just like your picture when loads of traffic or going fast, otherwise I use just my left hand as it is on the door's arm rest

>low traffic, or low speed

left hand at 9, right arm relaxing

>high traffic, high speed

If that's a "super car" than pic related.

>>17536882
Your picture has a Hummer in it.

Id go with stang. Parts are everywhere for the 4.6 that's in it and you get 300 lb/ft of torque for the dank launches if you so choose. Stang also has a lot of trunk space and the backseats aren't too bad to sit in if you absolutely have to.

>>17536701
What would be the best mods for a stang?

>>17536711
