I'm not a huge fan of modern interiors replacing stock ones on classic cars, but this is really well done.

InitialDave posted:Leaving aside this being an idiotic statement, it's not her husband or whatever. It's a guy pulling into the pump opposite her, and smiling in amusement at the familiar situation he also encounters every fillup. More like "smiling in smug acknowledgement that yet again, the plebes are ignorant to his superior taste in automobiles  ".

I think it's almost been 10 years since that poster (benji?) with the S4 said that superior adhesives line, can't believe it's been that long already.

Not to drag up the F1 thing again (even though there's nothing wrong with that) but just found this on Youtube. I'm not up on documentaries of F1 but this is great. Can't embed it based on youtube but here's the url: Senna

Senna is amazing, got a chance to see it when it came to the local arthouse theater near me a couple years back. Absolutely gripping.

I love that they've apparently hung something on the wall for the sole purpose of being blown around by exhaust from fast cars.

They're trying to show two different people driving TDI Audis at the gas station at the same time, but the edit doesn't quite make that clear. And let's just get this out of the way here: LOL ALL AUDIS LOOK THE SAME AMIRITE

I saw what I believe was a 122 truck conversion in the San Juan Islands last month - clean as gently caress, I wish I had gotten a picture.

 Saw this last week. The door mechanism was pretty awesome. For some reason the passenger's seat was pulled from a 3 series (safety regulation?)

Rev. Dr. Moses P. Lester posted:I'll go ahead and be a dick and say it, but given how many posts before this one had cars that didn't seem to deserve photos taken of them, I'm torn between saying "well played" to this on the assumption that it was a satirical post or asking if there's something actually awesome about that car because I know nothing about Chryslers. I actually moderate the turbo-mopar.com forums that that guy is a member of. Some of the high points of that car are standalone engine management, CNC ported head, forged pistons, custom intake and exhaust manifolds, t3/t4 turbo, 3" exhaust, massive intercooler, custom articulated hood vent ala classic mopar 'Air Grabber', custom tubular lower crossmember and tubular control arms, custom instrument cluster with VDO gauges, custom chassis bracing around the front of the car (high powered Omnis are known to flex and crack the front of the unibody in several places), running super aggressive Toyo R1R tires, 6k/4k spring rates on BC coilovers.. eesh listing it all feels like work. TLDR: That car is BUILT, top to bottom, front to back. There's barely a stock part left on it and it's one of the best Turbo Mopars out there, definitely in the top 5 Dodge Omnis ever put together. One of the other top 5 is doing Hot Rod Drag Week right now and is detuned from mid 140s mph trap speeds to just cruising around running easy 11s, along with another guy in an 11-second dodge shadow (guy also owns a 10-second Shadow and a 10-second Aries and won the GRM $2012 Challenge iirc) and another guy who's racing his daily driver dodge spirit running low 14s (after his turbo 3.5L shadow developed a last-minute problem). They all have hitches on them towing their slicks and stuff around on little trailers to all the different tracks. In short, i would encourage you to visit Turbo-Mopar.com and have a look around.

Everything you need to work fire, road, or water rescue. Oh, and a full leather interior and cold a/c. In short, I love my job
