[QUOTE=Slithers;48833335]Why?[/QUOTE] I need money and I have 2 vehicles right now. They are both going. [editline]5th October 2015[/editline] I'm going to buy something to replace them, but I don't know what yet. Looking at a lot of options.
Does anyone have any experience making polyester parts? Considering I often need a replacement body parts, as you easily lose a bumper or another part it can become very expensive. For example they charge about 300usd for a simple polyester bumper around here. I'm thinking about giving it a try. Creating the molds is the hardest part as far as I can tell. Just wanna see if anyone has experience with it and can tell me if it's worth the hassle.
I assume its similar to making fiberglass parts?
I saw a Ford GT like 1/4 mile from my house on the way home today. Fucking sexy car.
I'm a weird guy in that I'm not a big Super Car person, but the GT and Koeniggseggegagegggegggaonegg are schmexy cahs.

there's a few ford gts that are weekend cars in my area. one white with blue stripes, one blue with white, one red with white, and one yellow with black
[QUOTE=butre;48836642]there's a few ford gts that are weekend cars in my area. one white with blue stripes, one blue with white, one red with white, and one yellow with black[/QUOTE] The one I saw was blue with white stripes. Almost looked like a newer Corvette as I came up on it. Then I drove past and almost had an orgasm.
So my 2002 Ford Taurus might have just shit itself for the last time yesterday, so I'm waiting to hear back from the mechanic as to if it needs a new transmission, or if it's just the linkage. So just in case, I've been looking at cars on Craigslist, and I've been eyeing some Volvo wagons, especially this 1997 Volvo 850 Wagon. Now I know the reputation of these tanks, put are their any places I can read up a little bit more? If I have to get another car, I want it to last me a good couple of years.

Never seen a Ford GT driving, seen a guy with a trailer hauling two of them, BUT! I have seen a Ford pantera that was all red with shiny chrome wheels. Thing was beautiful.

I'm unsure if it's a replica but there's a GT40 in Perth with the plates '200MPH' They are so so cool. Especially how the door is part of the roof
My car is STILL IN THE SHOP. [editline]asda[/editline] aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

[QUOTE=rampageturke 2;48839630]It'll be a replica, I can guarantee[/QUOTE] oh well :v: It's still super cool. Actually remembering the fact that it is raced frequently at rallies and such only supports that further.
Well, got a new job [URL=http://www.southerncompany.com/what-doing/energy-innovation/nuclear-energy/pdfs/vogtle-nuclear-brochure.pdf]here[/URL] as a QA inspector (proud to be a part of history in the making). Moved to Augusta Georgia 3 weeks ago. After 2 urine tests and 3 DEEP background checks, I've got my badge and everything. So I'm making a FUCKTON of money. Just got a liquid cooled GTX 980ti and 2 new monitors. I'm now looking at a new vehicle. I'm trying to decide between a new Mustang GT, a new F-150 Eco-boost, or a new F-250 power stroke.

[/QUOTE] They didn't happen to find this account or any old archived Myspace accounts did they? If you want to spend a lot of money for not a lot of new Ford, buy any FG FPV or a brand new Falcon XR6 turbo and convert it to meet US laws.
Uppdate on my volvo 7laefy "740" New camshaft, injectors, fuelrail, head, Tuneable FPR Left to do now is the exhaust manifold and change sparkplugs. I hope to fuck it will run smoother now on low RPM and the rallyshit will kick in above 4.5k RPM. Otherwise I might rebuild for dual carbs and dist + cap ignition system because this rex/regina bullshit is pissing me off. OR is there any sort of ignition system like there is for fuel? like MSI injection which you can tune on your ipad? Tips plx
[QUOTE=PyroCF;48839689]Get something that not everyone has.[/QUOTE] Like a Shelby GT350? [QUOTE=rampageturke 2;48839906]why get a mustang gt when the focus rs is a thing[/QUOTE] I love my stang.

I don't think a new Ford exists that's not bland
[QUOTE=Birdman101;48841021]I don't think a new Ford exists that's not bland[/QUOTE] It's almost not their fault though. It's just everyone owns one. Not much unique about it when everyone owns the same vehicle.
