Well this is an obvious male dominated thread... here's the female to screw everything up...
My daily driver is this 2004 Chrysler Crossfire, nothing special about it, all stock... but mean enough to put your a** in the ditch on the 4th of July... (kind of a funny story now)

Here's the project car. A 1971 Pontiac Lemans, last I time I saw it, it was still its original Aztec gold color, ran great, and was an all around good car.... Now 8 years later, its been raped and given back... I cried a little...
 I'm on the look out for parts: Hood (hood in pic is s**t) Hood latch (has hood pins at the moment...) Fog lights Trunk lid Various interior parts etc.
So if anyone feels the urge to keep a lookout, that would be awesome... repainting it to be a deep metallic red, perhaps throw in some ghost racing stripes.
It's an ugly duckling waiting to become a swan... 3nodding

Both nice cars. The Crossfire is interesting, you don't see many of those around.
Keep us posted with the Le Mans project.
Oh, and of course, welcome to the guild. It's good to get some women in here, what with all the sausages.

I love how a guy can go into a room full of women but never screams things like "OH THE ESTROGEN!" or "CLAM FEST IN HERE!" but we get the vice versa all the damn time.
Actually it pisses me off, your womanlyness doesn't threaten us. If anything we want MORE women like you. A girl who's into cars isn't gonna b***h at a fella for working on his, she's gonna be right there helping him. Please talk sense into your gender for us, bring them to the car side twisted
Looking forward to seeing how your Pontiac progresses cuz that is one beastly looking machine. Oh and welcome aboard, Betty The River

Lol, I was being facetious... (mMm, sausages!)
Simply for the fact that its near IMPOSSIBLE to get a man in a room full of women ex. Victorias Secrets. They just linger at the door way...(perhaps it would be so much of a Godsend that they would obviously feel that something is wrong?)
Also, the only thing I understand about my gender is that women are bitches... there is know denying this...
Lastly, thanks for the welcome! I will keep you updated on the Lemans. 3nodding

I don't linger in the doorway at Victoria's Secret. I usually adhere to whatever girl it is I'm with and just sort of follow her around.

I love how we all get defensive once there's a girl pointing out obvious stereotypes.
J^2 is on here once in a while. She's my fiancee'. She started out like me as a driver and only now is getting into being mechanically knowledgeable... Except instead of all this happening when she was 9 like me, she's just experiencing it now which probably makes her feel a little experience stunted. Your presence should make her less uncomfortable to post. Welcome.

And I will let you know this!
As soon as I find the key... to unlock the car, to pop the hood...
*I think I lost the key :/...*
So far all I know about it is word of mouth, new edlebrock intake manifold, valve covers and air cleaner... other than that I'm not entirely sure whats lurking under the hood...
I think its mostly a stock, automatic... with a shitty paint job...

SWEET GRAVY I FINALLY UPDATED!
With both school, works, life, etc. it's been hard to get around with actually pulling the car out of the barn and getting to work on it. But here it is!
Video1 Video2
To little videos. You can hear it run, get a good look inside and out and see whats under the hood. As well as listen to my uncle not shut the ******** up (lord love him though) then freak out over a gas leak... fun stuff...
Washed it (to the best of my ability) after this video, what you see here is the car covered in an a** load of pollen and dust. So it looks a little (and I use the term very loosely) better now.
As for the name on the paper in front of the car thing to prove that they are in fact my actual cars... I'll get around to it... wahmbulance

I was waiting to see her in the video but was met with disappointment. Southern girls are often hot, I know this from experience.
