Yea! There is a Mopar I like haha. Just put an LS1 in there...(no not really, keeo it stock, just do little things to give it a better sound and clean it up...new cam, better muffler stuff like that. Move the battery to the back.)
Good find Chankgeez.
Had to do it...been resisting.
I've loved that movie my whole life.
I'll take the flying glow car though.
But I think Goblin Truck is too much for Emilio.

I hope the ripped some 4x4 drive gear boxes out of somewhere and made that thing an offroader. That would be amazing. Doubt it though (don't see that second drive train...)
Good finding a bigger picture of that gasser.
Yea, you might be making me look at dodges haha. Just want a good cheap platform to complete some crazy ideas I have

haha.
I called a dude about a dart about a year ago. He had a for sale sign on it that said "$12,00 OBO". We called and said sure 1200 we will pay today cash...knowing well that he meant 12k but forgot a zero (or ran out of room). No way it was worth 12k...had a chevy 350 in it with a holley carb. Dude didn't call us back, haha.
Stupid Novas and Chevy IIs gotta be so expensive these days.

Gasser wagons!
That 4WD woody reminds me of some of the Holden 4x4s they made on special order way back when.

Those are probably the best thing Ford ever did.
Correct me if I'm wrong (not a Ford guy) but those are the XC phase 4, aren't they?

Relevant to this thread, when I got to work yesterday morning I came upon this fucking beauty in the parking lot:

A TVR 3000M! First time ever seeing one of these bad boys in person. I showed this to my son last night (who is 5 and insanely into sports cars) and he flipped out.
