well here is my car at the moment, been working on this car since 06, it was actually stolen then recovered so when i got it, the front core sport was crap, no wheels, no interior, no bumpers, no lights, sooooo its come a long way. Now i feel its time to start something new so at the moment im looking at all the different options before i buy. btw i really love the plymouth satellitea and the coronets
I remember my first beer!!

thinkin with me dipstick
so theres this kid who watches aqua teen hunger force - see, he has a honda complete with a hamster wheel and carrot on a stick under the hood. he decides he's tired of putting around on 4 cylinders and sounding like a weedwacker in heat so he ponies up and gets an orange coronet. he is new to the whole carburetion thing as well as old cars in general and he is learning fast. he called his car the carrot, yeah i know, creative... goldfish named goldy, etc. the carrot moniker doesnt stick so he decides to name it after a pokemon character - i know, go figure - kids today.
now the confusing part - the thread is still named after his torque-less honda, people see the title and dont bother reading through the whole thread and decide to razz the feller about his car of the past instead of giving him props for tooling around the norhtwest side of phoenix amongst the blue-hairs and geezers in 100+ degree heat in an old mopar sans a/c...
help at all, polara?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH those post started off my morning right. let me give you some add. info. the carrot name was given by my mom.......not by me, so with all these issues ive been having lately and it not wanting to turn on, i decided to call it the charizard. why u ask? When Ash first gets together with his Charizard, the pokemon has no respect for him and does not obey its master. its a beast that doesnt want to get tamed. well in the end they become the best of friends and thats what will happen with me and my "charizard". pokemon ftw. and thanks for the summary john.

There are 904 trannies out there that Mopar bolted up behind small block V8s. They are just as good and can be built up but they cost more as they are not that common. 727s are a great tranny that can take a lot of abuse and keep coming back for more. Parts are plentyful and cheap (as cheap as most mopar parts anyways) and can be built to withstand a lot of horsepower and torque.
