    Re: Where to spend your dough, car or motor?

    I like to make the car run well....Then put a hot motor in it.....Keep it on the road.

    Then come winter time....fix the body. ;)

    I am not about a shiny slow car....I would rather have a decent looking fast car.

      X2, but ya gotta think ahead a little. These things are just metal and fabric; they will deteriorate without a little care. If you have a POS like I started with, it will just turn into a bigger POS if you don't take drastic measures. I sacrificed speed (but only for the moment) so I can keep the car and pass it on to my grandkids someday.

            You gotta have the big nasty sounding motor. Body is the least important to me.

              I put the nasty motor in the wrong car the first time. I now have a better car and a tamer engine,but I have a solid foundation to work with.
