Ok well here we go and everybody here will hate me for this,

No been to sunset never raced. drag racing BORES me to no end,Just like truck and tractor pulls.once the first pair runs down the track everything after is all the same,unless of course something explodes or wrecks.Circle track racing is a touch more exciting,cause they wreck more!I suppose of course if i were doing it it may be a bit more fun but i prefer non-stop action thats why i derby.And no i don't like watching that either because i just want to run back in the pits and steal a car and beat the living crap out of it.

Altho i do now own a former drag car i still cannot make up my mind what to do with it,and have owned 16-17 Chevy vega"s few of them stock.Most V-6or V8 conversions.2 of witch were unbelivably fast.(1 had an early 60's aluminum V-8 buick and OMG hold on)But still just never had the itch to drag race.Road racing on the other hand i find interesting.I guess it just depends on the skill level required to drive the race that makes it more interesting for me.

As for your friend being married to that guys daughter would that be Big Bird?And who do you know in greenville i probly do too as i have worked at a local salvage yard most of my life.

Re: Cars in Barns

Don't feel bad, I don't drag race either, been to a few through the years, I guess I'll enjoy it more when I get my car going and try it a few times.

Re: Cars in Barns

I posted a survey on my site. It is about how often you check the site, daily, weekly, monthly, never/if ever. Please post what you do, so I get an idea of what to do with the site next. Thanks.

Re: Cars in Barns

Hi Ryan,I recognize you from Moparts.I checked out your site and you got some really cool pics.I'm still having trouble getting pics uploaded to here.I have quite a few,I've posted some of them on Moparts.The coolest one I've came across in the past few years has to be a 70 340 4 speed 'Cuda. Yes,I asked the guy before I took the photos.He's got it sitting in some pines (and his garage is empty!They got like,a picnic table and the lawn mower in there WTF?) The 'Cuda is still workable and mostly complete.It has some crap 273 in it,but the 4 speed is still there,so are the road lamps! Dark Green with a tan interior.Makes me want to cry.Last year I went 100 miles to look at a '71 'Cuda,knowing it was COMPLETELY disassembled and missing the 71 grille and fenders! It was too much work just to get it home,let alone put it together,but now,I wish I bought it!My old '74 Road Runner is sitting in view from the road and every time I go by I talk myself out of stopping.I don't need it,it's a piece of crap.

and I want it BACK!

Re: Cars in Barns

Sounds like one hell of a story. If you need help loading the pics, you can email them to me, and I can throw them up on my picture account.

You don't have to tell me you took the pictures legally, I trust people. It is only those that I know have stolen before that I don't.

Peace

Ryan
