    Some people look at old project cars for sale and wonder, "Who's gonna take care of these after we're gone?"

    I will!!!

    Nothing beats old American iron.

    Actually I'm surprised theres not more of it, I mean, whats not to love about these cars. Sure most of them that people see need work and drink gas like its free and are loud, but... Wait...I just named off the reasons Im hooked on them.:yup: All these kids wanna go fast. You wanna feel fast, you will when you got one of these cars up to speed.:burnout:
