There are only two reasons I even have a truck. 1 of course to haul my Raptor, and 2 to go to work to make money to mod my Raptor. King Raptor sounds like he has a real nicely modded Supra. I love the old GN, an old man comes to town about once a every two months in one and waxes up on all the little young street racers around here. Kinda humbling to get beat by an old big car like that if all you do is talk junk about how bad your Mustang is, kinda funny to watch.

well i don't have a car, so you can guess what i mod more. I'm only 15 and can't insure or register my own quad (i bought with my own money, no allowances or crap like that) but anyway im currently fixing it to good not missing anyparts, then ill start modding but nothing serious like internals, i dont have that kind of money, just filter, exhaust and jet

All i can say is that i spend to much on my cars (69 camaro and 7O Nova). The Nova could pass inspection but damn it would kill me to pay for gas for it. It has close to $12000 into the motor alone but running 5.92 @ 116.21 in the 8th with 1.33 60's ain't bad. SBC 406 hides under the hood. The 69 camaro runs 11.82 @ 113.05 in the 1/4, it has BBC in it. Can run pumpgas through her. The camaro is getting all the money right now. Maybe after i get that done i can put money into the bikes.

I can't leave anything alone. My first car was a '90 Ford Taurus station wagon. I covered the whole hood and quarter pannels in duct tape and drew flames on it with a marker and cut the flames out and clearcoated the duct tape so it'd stay. I then unhooked the exhaust after the cadilitic convertor so it was louder then hell. I then put 80 watt pioneers on the wheel well's in the back. I put duct tape over the speakers so it looked like I taped them down when I really bolted them down. It was a nice car and I miss it more then anything.

Now I have my quad, check out my link for pics and see the mods for yourself. I also have a '96 Ford Ranger XLT. I've only just begun. Too bad it's only gotta 2.3 [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] . So far I've got new plugs and wires a K&N air filter and a modified air intake. I'm gonna get racing stripes on it and headlight covers. Too bad you can't make the 2.3 fly. Guess I'll have to shoehorn a 4.3 in there when I get some cash.

Dash- I don't know. 25 years ago we hung the bras on the rearview mirror. A passage to manhood? lol[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
