kiwi808 Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 Rad car mate. It’s also cool how it’s been converted to right hand drive. Please don’t paint it pink. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

73crownwagon Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 Very very jelly of your car. Gloss black, black leather interior, bags and astro supremes on whitewalls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thousand Dollar Supercar Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 Lol at how deliberately massive it is. It looks like you're meant to stand on the ground between the radiator and the front grille, to get close enough to reach the engine? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers yeah nah its staying as close to "beat up old yank tank you'd see around NZ in the 90s" as i can keep it 36 minutes ago, kyteler said: White and slam is a common but winning combination. Yeah I concur. As soon as it's legal Ill be sure to make it less legal 10 minutes ago, 73crownwagon said: Very very jelly of your car. Gloss black, black leather interior, bags and astro supremes on whitewalls. Yeah in an ideal world. And also 500hp to achieve ultimate "walking" burnouts. This might happen if the motor is junk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting it to fit in the shed takes serious logistical planning Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyteler Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 Astro's are definitely the go though, so much tougher on Astros than Cadicaps. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiwi808 Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 My dad had a 4 door 59 Cadillac Fleetwood. It was dark blue with a bit of patina (before patina was cool) and everyone always asked him when he was going to paint it pink. Also those 390 motors when rebuilt put out some serious torque. And sound lush with the right exhaust. I have fond memories of sitting at 100km and hour on the motorway and some young guys over took us in a FXGT on the motor way doing a bout 120km. Dad just floored it and flew past them at 100 miles an hour. They fucking lol’d and looked a bit surprised. Ah, the memories. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
