I've been working on cars since I was about 15. I'm 41. I own 3 Mustangs and an Expedition. I paint cars for a living but I can do just about everything body shop wise, I'm little more limited on the mechanical side. No transmissions or rear ends. I'm married and have a 4 yr old daughter and 3 dogs.

Re: Dropped my Expedition this weekend
September 8, 2009 by cobragt
Rides nice, I spent the extra money and got the street performance shocks for the better ride. Didn't want my wife bitching it was too harsh. I took it through some corners today and what a difference! But then again I got it at 102 K miles and it has 196K on it now The shocks and springs where original! Still have the factory paint marks on the shocks. I never checked when I got it, I just assumed that whoever owned it before changed the shocks. I also changed the upper control arms, ball joints were loose but more so because the rubber just fell apart when I busted them loose.

Is that real rust or "faux-tina"?
-e-merlin
No it's real. You just about need a Tetanus shot just to get in it.

Thought I would share this about The Run Thru the Hills event in Pigeon Forge TN.
July 11, 2009 by cobragt
It's time for another Run Thru The Hills event in Pigeon Forge TN.
Bill Howell of MuscleRides.com has once again organized what promises to be an unforgettable event: the fifth annual Pro-Touring.com Run Thru The Hills, sponsored by Musclerides.com. Scheduled during the beautiful mid September weather of "God's Country" Tennessee, this event will feature a plethora of pro-touring cars and enthusiasts; autocrossing, drag racing and a cruise through the back hills at breakneck speeds--what more could a pro-touring enthusiast ask for?
Join us and experience what pro-touring is all about: three days filled with good times, good friends and of course, the meanest Pro-Touring cars around. This event is the perfect opportunity to safely test your car's performance on the autocross track and dragstrip as well as means of putting faces to the names you've chatted with all year on the forum. We're all aware of the enormous amount of hard work and preparation that goes into building a well sorted g-machine: this is your chance to show off what your car can really do.
The basic schedule:
Friday Sept 18 - Bill's back-road-boogie, "Run Thru The Hills" and dinner
Saturday Sept 19 - Autocrossing at Smokies Stadium.
Sunday Sept 20 - Drag racing at 411 Dragway.
Vendor space at the autocross will be available this year. It
will be $200 for a 20x75 space. Space at the drag strip is free, but is limited
to those that participated in the vendor space at stadium.
It will also
include two dinners for Friday night. The regular price will apply for vendor
participating cars. If you are someone you know might be interested please
contact Bill Howell.

Re: Can a 4 door be a muscle car?
July 10, 2009 by cobragt
I know of a Chevy Kingswood estate wagon with a COPO motor in it with all the paper work. Besides a muscle car is a stripped down no frills car with a big ass motor in it. That is just what most old Police cars are.
