Title: found a car .
Post by: games keeper on 2004-07-22, 00:26
I like old cars , you know , the good old ones , ford torino , mustang , falcon  
or dodge charger ,  chalenger  or pontiac trans am  ,  phoenix  or plymouth barracuda , roadrunner

well , today I was at a BBQ , and I talked to a guy there , he has at home a 1969 red MGB .
he asks 6000 $ for it at max .
now heres the funny part he only lives less then 2 miles away from me .
with other words , at the moment im trying to convince my parents to help me buy the car .

here is his site http://home.pi.be/~pasron/index.htm (http://home.pi.be/~pasron/index.htm)

Bah, you don't want any old MGB  -  you need a Scout!

Oh yes, Pontiac made a car named after me!  That's just too awesome.

And yes, I agree with Games Keeper.  Older vehicles > newer beer cans on wheels.

Miata would be cool.  Stick a 5.0L in there and there's your muscle car.

http://www.speedfreak.cc/miata/ (http://www.speedfreak.cc/miata/)     <- lots more out there if you do a search.

I think a guy like you should be able to handle that much power.

Miatas are one of the best handling cars built today, and even with the added front weight of the 5.0 it's not too shabby.  C'mon GK, do it for me.
