Mid 12s? Not bad bro! Running any juice or all natural?

Exhaust work, ECM TCM Tunes, E-Fans, and a Built Transmission... everything else is stock... and I am not spraying.

That is why I love SBCs... 5000lb Soccer Mom Suv needs minimal tweaking to put down decent numbers.

My dad used to have a Stang that ran low 11s w/ a stock block. Had heads and juice I believe.

Nice ride! We picked up a Charger a month and a half ago. Sweet ride.

25. It has underdrive pullies, a K&N filter. Needs seatbelts (fun as hell w/o them but oh well) a rearview mirror, the antenna isn't hooked up, it has 3.73 gears in it so the speedometer is off like a *****. The tranny is from a junkyard it looks like 'cause it's painted blue...hopefully the clutch is the reason it's slipping, it seems like it. I have $1,500 left. But the dude left it sitting for three fuckin' years and it was covered in bird shit, but I cleaned it twice and my knuckles are swollen from scrubbing it w/ dish soap (bad for the paint but the clear coat is fucked regardless) for hours, but like I said the clear coat is messed up because the bird shit baked on it, so if this compound doesn't work I'll have to pay for it to be wet sanded & put a new clear coat on it.

you have time before you get your DL, I would save your pennies and get a new engine and trans, not saying new as in brand new, but a replacement. they are out there and for cheap as ****. just have to do some searching. the guy who left it sit there abandoned a potentially sick fucking car. if i saw that car for that price i would have swooped it up, stripped the paint, paint it cherry red and put a 357 in that ***** with a procharger.

That's what I'm talkin' about. The dude who sold it has a Mustang that is a 331 stroker w/ a turbo...puts out 672 @ the rear. Nasty ass car.

Challenger is very nice. And I like the feel the black gives off as well, gonna look into better black rimes though.

i like the black.



he has a turbo in his stang, on a stroker? weird.

I thought so too. So he says...but he looks a bit weird anyway. I'd spray if I was running a small block, but that's me. A blower sounds better on a small block IMO, but I like turbos the best.

chrome is outdated as ****. if you go with black rims, what would look good is the chrome lip...that is about as much chrome as i would do on the wheels. but black rims on a black car is the shit.

Keep the rims, work on the engine.

depends on what he looking for, what his personality is. if he wants to be more cosmetic, go with the black rims and 35% tint all around. if he is a speed freak like myself i would look into engines, if not a good blower add on to the stock engine is fine. he can do headers,exhaust, cold air...throttle body etc and still gain some hp and sound mean. its a personal preference.
