i want a 70-72 Firebird

Yes! I had a classmate back in highschool who drove a dark green '69. I envied that car so bad, the cool little tach mounted on the driver's side hood and the noise it made.

I seem to have a soft spot for Pontiacs:

Looks like a wannabe GNX to me.
The GNX wasn't around in '85, so if anything, it's a wannabe Grand National.
But it's not, since the Regal, Cutlass, Monte Carlo, and GN/GNX are all related. Same body, different details.

I want a Viper. Any year; I don't care. They all float my boat.

Nice headers, You've got a high rise double pump carburetor. That's... that's pretty impressive.

Anyway...LSX or something?

Here's my choice.

Nothing that cool.

5.3 from a 04 Tahoe, Z06 cam, comp springs, rebuilt th350 with shift kit. Eddy Performer intake with Carb.

Engine should make ~370/400 gross, so just over 320 at the wheels.

I'm also tuning it for E85 since larger jets were only $20.

Sadly those are stock headers. They fit 1st Gens, but not seconds. The oil pan also apparently fits A-bodies, but is too close to the ground in this car... Sigh. I'll wrap it up in the spring.

Not gonna happen again. Safety and the changes in production is why.

Few companies build RWD midsize coupes anymore and the safety requirements would mean Japanese Super GT or DTM styled cars. These are far more expensive then Cup Cars and part of the NASCAR appeal is it's accessibility to independent teams.

Watch out, Formula Drift is heading this way.

They really did release that car at the absolute worst time possible. If that thing was released right now for the first time it would be doing far better.

I always thought the GTO looked like an updated 90's Monte Carlo.

Hey Phlip, it's a damn shame they only built 6 of those Daytonas. They look far better than the roadsters if you ask me.

I'm not sure if there is a domestic car that I absolutely love. These would have to be my favorites though.

i really like the "bubble top" GM cars of the early 60's. i actually typed that into google, and this picture popped up. it's only funny because i took it back in like '07, at the woodward dream cruise. it's a '61 Le Sabre.

when i think of domestics, i don't usually think of cars. i've never owned a domestic, and can really only see myself driving trucks/SUVs.
like a big, badass power wagon for example.

They had like 12 total i think, but Carol Shelby said they didnt have enough money to ship them all back after a season in europe and left half of them over there. So he only brought like 6 back to US.

By a Japanese owned company on a Japanese design using Japanese assemblies.

Yes, by the mid-80s the lines began to blur.

DMC was an American company founded by Delorean, the father of the GTO and Trans AM, but the car was made in Ireland with a French and Swedish powertrain (no wonder it failed).

Yeah what was so bad? Bought mine at 27k sold it at 70k and beat the fucking piss out of it every day in between. Loved it as a daily. Found it to be reliable enough and surprisingly potent.

Doesn't hurt that you can find them for a penny now.

What was so bad about it?

I will agree that they are getting pretty cheap now a days. I had the clutch go out on the way to work one day and spent 4 days fighting the car to get the new clutch in. I know it is that way with most FWD cars but after that I lost all love for the car and sold it to buy my 240 a week later. I miss not having a turbo but I have a few suprises for the 3 ka motors in my garage.
