[QUOTE="OnAnySunday, post: 711314, member: 20641"] Yea, really. Now theyre like "Bic" pens. Fix em? Hell no it costs as much as what the cars worth in many instances. I had an old tbird a whilst back. When its smog egipped engine bit the dust, i didnt lose any sleep replacing it -w- a (ahem) slightly boosted 302 h.o. V8. Smog equppment? nah. Just a nice lil 715cfm cath bowl holley, true duals and a marine grind cam. Just like the old days! :) And oh my gosh! No airbags! Boy my feet were sweatin everytime i got in it..........NOT. My current ride doesnt got em either, oh well. :confused: That beast had 175,000 miles on her when i sold it and it was still running like a champ. I got nothin against airbags i guess (other than this fear of em blowin up in my face at a stoplight or somthin.) but im not gonna praise the safety gods over em either. Thing is that cars are going where bikes are gonna go. Safety mad. Heck since people cant drive or be trusted to try to drive safely and defensivelly, then i guess we just better make ALL cars crash-proof so the public wont hurt themselves! Whats next? You know whats next cuz we are all experiencing it. Better get rid of those other dangerous vehicles! Trikes (already gone) q u a d s , snowmobiles, jet-ski's, and MOTORCYCLES. Oh for heavens sake yes! Those darn motorcycles! (cant put airbags or doorbeams on those babys, so out they go! :| ) Will we be saying "sure glad they dont make them (at all) like they used to"?? Sorry kids, im just a car guy and a muscle car buff defending his hobby. Sorta like the dirtbikers try to defend theirs, eh? :think: Oh and PS: Mebbe those old beasts didnt handle too well. Just ad a little modern tech. A good set of 15 / 17 inch performance tires, and some upgraded suspention components, and whalla! Might not outgun these new cars on an autocross course, but theyll have fits trying ta shake em off! :p [/QUOTE]
