i get a puzzled, disgusted, or amazed look on the face followed by "did you paint that" lol then "whats it got in it"

Timmie

I think the car would look better with a vit more black on the front
( headlight pickets and maybe a black grille )
but thats just me.

anyway.
what things I heard.

is that a firebird ? ( they dont know camaro's )
is that a mustang ?
is that a corvette ?

these ones could also be sweet ( camaro/mustang/firebird/corvette )


WTF !!
that is a cool car.
pointing and staring also happens.

is it a v8 ?
how old is that car ?
whats the gas milage?
does it have LPG ( driving on propane/buthane mixture only costs 0.5 cents at the pump )
yes it has

when I remote start the car. ( they dont know that here )
hu ? the car starts and nobody is in it.
have you seen that dash ( nordskog digital dash )

look, it is a car you have to build yourself. (when I was putting the T-top on the car )

89fbrestor

ya I'm not done yet. i was also thinking of throwing some same style designs on the mirrors. that was my 1st attempt at painting designs on a car and i wasn't gutsy enough to put them on the hood. it think it would have looked neat to have it going up the hood around the scoop. i'm doing my other toy car in about a month or so and I'm going to get a little more crazy with it

itsMikey

wow..lol
nice colour

89fbrestor

There is a guy on the Jbody forums that painted his car almost the same exact color, it's funny because he got the same comments.


Looks good!



So, i pushed mine out of the garage this weekend. It's the first time in almost a year that it's seen sunlight. One of my neighbors came out of his house and asked if i just bought it... lol

itsMikey

My friends are just like that in fact about three or four of my friends asked so far and the others already know how I am with my car. They always say can I drive it, I will only go up and down the street. They think they can handle the power of a 350 I guess when they have an Intrigue, Saturn, and an accord all of them are four bangers. The reason I give for not letting them drive it is,
1. I get POd whenever my mom tries to take it for a spin
2. You drive something with 90 hp you cant handle this
3. I dont want to drive your car it is a piece of crud and is slow
4. The only time you can drive it is if you give me the $256,987 I asked for to rent it for the weekend.
5. If you wreck it the insurance only works if Im driving it and I wont get paid anything to fix it if someone hits you while you drive it.
6. Dude you paid about 3k-4k for your car and I paid $2300 for mine with $700 to fix a few things (tires and heater). You should have bought one when you had the chance. Its not my fault you wanted something that handles good on snow and wont get you any chicks!
7. I have already told you all the reasons before didnt you listen
I guess Im going to have to just keep a list of all the rules for my car and a list for the reasons they or anyone else cant drive it in my center console to hand to them everytime thet get in my car.

*sigh

"yo do it got nitroxx???"
no...
"ahh mannn..i wanted to see the button on your steering wheel man!"
oh...*walks away -_-

matthanscom

where im from nobody compliments my car anymore and instead gives me dirty looks...never give a 16yr old a loud car in a small-ish town haha

on occasion i get the midlife crisis man driving his c5 or old garage queen say nice ride when its sunny, the ttops are off and the paint is shiny for once

dirtrides2009

I usually get
-Is it fast?
-whats in it?
-whats it got done?
-Nice (Insert random car here)!
-Did you pay for it yourself?

jeff_blake

iTrader: (1)

lets see.. I've "how fast is it?" "wanna trade" "i bet you've got a ton of tickets in it" "why the **** is it neon green" "being that color must be a cop magnet" "what motors in it, (me) 305, no way! that's pushing a ton of power" but the one that gets me every time.. "my honda can beat that old thing" wait.. guess not!

actually the same color as 89fbrestors.

iTrader: (2)

People with no knowledge ask what year is it.

People with some knowledge ask what year it is and talk about the IROC they had that was just a V6 or was an RS.lol. Then they ask if the spoiler is original.

People with good knowledge want to know how I keep it running so good.

People with lots of knowledge want to know if the paint is the original color.

And everyone wants to know how much do I want for it. I say twice what I bought it for.

"Nice Firebird"

After doing a big smokey doughnut in a parking lot, a gentlemen that has watched too many donk camaro videos asked me before anything "is that a RS?"

collin2201

With my old V6 Firebird, I got a lot of crap. Asking "why don't I just get a V8".
And when I finally get a GTA, it's all "A 305? Why not a 350?"

And from my buddy with an S2000:
"Why don't you just sell that money pit and get a Honda?"

DeathStarr89

iTrader: (1)

and when you have a 350 everyone tries to talk you into a 383 or a 400.. then a big block etc... it never ends.

Iroc drummer

I took my car to put air in the tires before i took it to be painted. So i am squatting down putting air in the tire and not looking up. The next thing i know i see a pair of work boots. I look up and see this guy and he says i was driving down the street and saw your car. Is that a real Z. I said yea. He said that he has not seen a real Z in that good shape in a long time and asked if i wanted to sell it. I said sorry man iam taking it to the body shop to have it painted. He was like ok here is my number, when you get ready to sell it call me. LOL I am not selling it. LOL

Then the next day on my way to the body shop someone pulled me over and asked me the same thing. Is that a real Z etc. Lots of people like the 3rd gen Camaros. Oh i did have one guy ask me why iam i keeping the car all original. LOL

itsMikey

resto-mod is whats up
stock just isnt my style..haha..but im sure ur iroc looks sick

Iroc drummer

why not a musi 632? or how bout a sonny 800+ci mountain motor? why not get an effing clue and quit asking me such nonsense?

i love it when people ask me if i got a small block in it and i say "kinda".

the conversation usually goes like this:

dude: "you gotta big block?"
me: "no"
dude: you gotta small block?"
me: "i guess technically"
dude: 350?
me: "no"
dude: "400?"
me: "no"
dude: "383?"
me: "stop guessing, you'll never hit it"
dude: "so you're one of them street racing type that keeps it all to himself?"
me: "nope, it's just a mouthfull to tell you what's in the car"
dude: "what on earth are you running then?"
me: "well, it's a 370ci ls1 type engine with a carb...and the engine has no distributor"
dude: "WTF? lemme see"

i need a simpler way to explain this. cause the "carbed truck motor" doesn't fly when they've all heard the car go by before. i work at an autoparts store so alot of these guys that ask frequent the store and recognize me/the car.

"305 or 350?"

They'll love the car until I tell them its only a 305, then they all laugh and say too bad...I'm like WTF?!?! My car may run a 305 but it's not stock and is pretty peppy, (I wont go so far as to say fast yet, lol) but w/e. /rant.

I have been asked to "Do a Burnout" by my friends who cruise next to me in a 2000 Civic...I floor it, tires squeel loudly, and I dissappear lol... but I hate ignorant ***** drivers that cant fathom the fact that 3rd gens CAN whoop their rice grinding ***!!!! But the best thing I always say to a ***** is "Nice Blender" or "Is your blender supercharged?" Pisses 'em off every time, and I laugh my *** off.

seriously, i've been asked, "That thing got a hemi?"
i was positive the guy was joking, but the blank look on his face had me second-guessing myself.

having it called a camaro, wrong year, wrong engine...i've gotten into an argument with a guy when i told him i have an LT1. he said it's impossible because they didn't come out with them until '92.
I've also gotten into an argument with a guy who had an IROC with a TPI and claimed it was an LT1. couldn't convince him different.

1fastrock

I always get the usual but the one I hate the most is "when you want me to teach you how to drive it?" And it usualy comes from someone driving a truck or some grandma car!

all the girls ask me why its so loud, and all the guys ask what ive got in it, even though it looks like hell its probably the fastest car in the whole parking lot

camaromike222

Just yesterday I got asked, "How the hell did you get those wheels and tires (17x11 w/ BFG 315's) to fit under that thing?"

FordGirlGoneBad

It's true, I got my Z28 about six years ago, after two years upgraded from 305TBI to carb'd 350 and right now she's sporting a 383 heart...I'm sure as soon as I get used to that I'll be looking for more...it never ends - there's always bigger, faster and louder.

Birdstheword

you think thats bad , try watching a homeless 91-92 white GTA T-tops sit in the hot sun , rain , just sitting there , i would make an offer , but i already have my hands full with my 88 T/A "warped heads " .

my car sat for like 10 years before i bought it people just dont know what they have i guess..

It's either "What all have you done?" or "How much HP you got?" usually at a gas station when the car is on the trailer.

They ALWAYS have a look of dissappointment when I tell them it's stock or has 217hp/276ft*lbs!
