    That mustang looks nice. I'm not a big fan of that body style normally but looks great blacked out.

    The galaxy looks like a fun project. I haven't seen very many of them. Nice to see an old classic being restored.

    I think cars are boring. I don't even change my own oil, but I love making car themed PC's

    I like diesels. Working on my K10 Chevrolet that is getting a 6.5 diesel, and a four-speed. I have a thread in the Misc Projects area. Which I need to update with pictures of the pulled engine, and the installed hydro booster.

    Also pondering building a 14:1 CR 350SB for E85. But it figures I get the idea in my head to do this after I junk a 305SB with 58CC heads...

    I just picked myself up my own little project car, a 91 camaro convertible. That needs a lot of work. Like, lots. I already have the whole stereo system... buuut it's just sitting in storage lol.
    Maybe I'll start a worklog in the misc projects section...

    Old thread, but since no one else is a bike nut, I'll admit I am. I have a 2003 Suzuki SV650S right now that I put 15000 miles on last year alone. I do all my own maintenance (except valve checks, because I'm lazy), and I'm definitely modding it like I did computers. I know A LOT about most sportbikes and standards from the 90's on though, and most people take me along whenever they're buying a bike. Just Sunday I had the good fortune to put about 30 twisty miles on a 04 Honda CBR600RR. Super fun and super fast! I hit 103mph in 3rd gear, and I could hit bigger than 45 degree lean angles on any curve I wanted just by thinking about it!
    I would really like my Thermaltake prizes... Thanks everyone for my wonderful prizes!

    I come from a Harley family.

    At the moment I'm lacking a bike... Two out in the shop though. My Dad has a '08 Electra Glide Classic, and a Titan Gecko. The gecko is up for sale though. Money reasons. Hoping to pickup a bike when spring rolls around. My dad has a lead on a 2000 Katana. Might try to get it to make a streetfighter out of. Something I can beat on without worrying about looks.

    Here is the Gecko. It came to us in ten different shades of blue. Including the engine... We repainted everything. Stripped the engine, and tranny for some black. The forks even had blue on them that we stripped.
