  • We converted another one!

    Well, Dad had so much fun on the Power Tour with all you folks, he had to go out and get a new car for next years tour. He didn't figure his Mercedes would really fit in.

    So welcome a new member to BangShift. His screen name is Dark Knight. He picked up this rod last Thursday. It's a 2001 TA Vert, LS1 6speed with Ram-Air and WS6 suspension. 37k on the clock and this thing is CLEAN. Here's just a couple of pics of it.





    And we did the first mod on it tonight. We added a strut bar brace.



    I'll let him post more pics and details when he figures it out.

    Cool car, always liked that body. Pontiac did a good job on that one.

        Glad he enjoyed PT, Bob! Is the "Dark Knight" screen name a reference to Knight Rider?! Welcome, DK!

          Your dad has a nice ride, glad he enjoyed himself. I'll be looking for the both of you in Wisconsin next June.

                So you converted him to the "Dark" side? Love that body style, it looks mean.

                          Glad he had fun & is looking forward to next year. Nice choice of ride. It will make tour even more fun for him.
                          Hauling ass & sucking gas are the best uses for a truck.

                            Great looking ride ! Enjoyed meeting Dark Knight this year at the gas station in West Virginia. Glad you included a pic of the front, because if he drives like you Bob . . . I will never see anything but the tail lights !
