You’re sweet. You get her into cars. I have 2 of your mags that she gave me out of your car hehe. Uhh I think that’s it. And Josh likes you. Oh and you got your T-Bird for real cheap/ alot less than you should have payed for it. ---

Nice, you’ve got at least 20k left in that head gasket. 😛 Hopefully… Just don’t do what my old roommate did. His 92 Cougar 3.8 started billowing white smoke so he tried driving it from UB north back home to Rochester to deal with it there. He barely made it off campus. He then paid a tow truck $350 to tow it to “his” mechanic, just to have his mechanic tell him it ain’t worth fixing as the rest of the car was rotting. I think he was over 100k though. ---

lol yeah, those 3.8’s are notorious for blowing HG’s, although the later models (96-97), I’m pretty sure, had been re-designed to address the issue. Not 100% positive though ---

from what i’ve read, 89-95 was the worst, with the problem being greatly improved for 96-97, but not completely fixed. the car’s going to be sold in the spring, so if you’re looking for a fun, comfortable beater with low miles, talk to me in a few months lol. ---

i get the feeling that those AWD V8 Exploders are the ones you always see parked on someone’s lawn deep in the city, with bullet holes in them, and on the 7AM news talking about who got shot last night… LOL just messing with you man, i’d line up against you. any outcome predictions? ---

Yeah, you’d smoke me. V6 in a car vs. a V8 in an explorer. Although from a 50-80 pull I smoked SexyCivic04! Hehe. I’ll run you though just for shits and giggles. ---

i’m down. i beat my retarded sister in 50-80 as well, so we’ll see. her I/E did nothing LOL…$600 down the drain but seriously, i think you might have a pretty decent chance. 3.8’s of my vintage were some of the lowest output V6s that were produced in the 90s. ---

lol i just talked to my sister about how she ran you…she is so bitter about it haha. 🎻 Her: it’s a completely different class, that’s why i lost…it was domestic VS import, 4 cylinder VS V8, truck versus car… :gotme: ---

Haha it was on teh QEW and she just couldn’t keep up. It was great but I guess it’s a completely different class. Shouldn’t a civic with an intake and exhaust beat a stock SUV with 20’s? I dunno it was funny though. But I’ll definately run you just tell me when and where, I like my odds based on what you’re saying. ---
