Did You See Anything Good Today? [Read First Post]

[jeffgoddin]

thanks, yeah, I was being funny with the 442 since the hood said 488, so an engine swap at some point... and I'd already guessed and labeled it 1969 on my Flickr, good to have that confirmed! guy said he used to drag race it, but that was so expensive (as inevitably racing that hard breaks stuff) that nowadays he's mostly just a bit obnoxious on the streets...

but thanks for the Chrysler ID! neat looking car, had no idea. and hard to tell, jezis, you mean impossible! I'll call it a Newport to be safe...

 

[playnthru]

488ci would most likely be a bored and stroked 455, hence the 488 on the hood. That would be my assumption at least.

The 442 declaration never stood for engine size.

 

[jeffgoddin]

yeah, I know, 4 barrel, 4 speed, dual exhaust... didn't know how the 450 turned into a 488, though, thanks!

 

[disinfected]

Hey, at least I tried.

 

[jeffgoddin]

Wraith?

 

[disinfected]

Yeah, think it is the same one I saw in a hangar at work.

 

[ildd]

I'm going to go out on a limb and say the plane and the Rolls belong to the same person?

 

[disinfected]

There were three Rolls in that hangar, then an FF in the next hangar over. Hard to tell what car goes to what aircraft.

 

[Clark]

No idea what this is, maybe another one for @TheCracker

And two more F-type Coupes, probably seen 200 in total now.

I think the first one might even be an F-type R since it looks like there's quad exhaust

 

[Clark]

I just don't know why they've got them covered like this at this late stage. Before the coupe was a bounced there was loads of camo'd ones. Since it was announced I've seen tens of both V6 and the R coupes in production trim.

I would assume it's to protect the paint.

.60 over will net you such a displacement. altough that's probably a Chevrolet engine hiding in there. I sure hope not, but racing an Oldsmobile big block is really, really expensive.

455 dude, 455! Also, har har har at thar "grampa Cano" comment. I love you.

Sexy car

When I was at a shop on Saturday, I saw the front end of what I thought was a 1940 Chevy, but was unable to get a closer look or take a pic. It was still there today after I picked my car up. I still can't tell what it is though. Is it a Ford?

And the same CL63 I saw like 2 weeks ago

 

[Dagger311]

This was technically not at the show, it was at a Walgreens near the show. Same with the two below it.

And saw this Abarth today in the rain.

That's how you make big displacement motors with muscle cars. When you hear someone talk about a "stroker" engine, like 331 or 347 Stroker, it's usually bored out and stroked engine, those two typically starting as a Ford 302 and utilizing it's block. My dads friend has a 1970 Mach 1 that started with a 429, built built it to a 478. Big block engines these days can go from 440ci all the way to 850ci.

I didn't expect to see anything since it was pouring outside, so please excuse these awful cell phone pictures.


Old hot rod truck

Dodge Daytona

I also missed a '13 Challenger SRT8 when the rain was at its worst. Edit: And a Mk1 Golf

@xXKingJoshXx I thought you we referring to the Isuzu in the first pic until I looked in the middle

Yeah the "8mp" camera on my phone isn't exactly decent. It's so pixelated it looks like I drew it in with Microsoft Paint.

Edit: It looked like this except with a chopped roof and wood "fencing" (can't think of the proper term) on the bed.

Do you have the s3? I have the s4 and only problems I really have is auto focus.

I have this hateful excuse for a phone.

Argh, just saw a silver Diablo VT roadster on my walk to get lunch. Gotta love the SF financial district. I couldn't get my phone out and camera open in time before the light changed green.

Gave this guy a thumbs up because it looked bad-ass to me. Seeing 10s on a classic American coupe rarely looks appealing, but I think this one pulled off the look rather well.

 

[playnthru]

Lowrider baby, yeah!!


Lowrider's commonly use 13x7 Dayton wheels.👍
