Why CA should be removed from the earth.

[curandero]

That isn't that bad at all, just unfinished.

What I'm not understanding is this..

Then their is the massive fascination with intentionally junky looking cars in the name of boro that many drifters(or posers..?) got into..

Is that the new Road Worn BMW series?

 

[Korladis]

That "truck" is a product of the people of this state.

So are you.

To you, it looks like junk.

To someone else, it might look like a fun restoration project.

Hope that the same could not be said about you.

Yeah in tetanus color!

to me that car is about as appealing as a 9 string conklin, carl thompson or ritter bass, but I have no problem sharing my state or this website with someone that thinks it's a must have.

Did you ever see a diamond before it's cut and polished? Looks a bit like a piece of a melted corona bottle.

Everyone that spent their creative time dogging out the relic/road worn/road rash/etc finished basses by using cars as a counter example has now lost 10 points in the debate.

Who will karma pick next? STAY TUNED on the gameshow everyone loves.....

$2250 for that! You pick up a better looking newer truck for that around here.

I'd say this is but one reason to ditch CA. The other is calledthe Quackenbush training area. IF you know what it is you will agree.

I have a ton of relic'd cars in my yard (and my brother in law's, my dad's, and a couple of friends') so it seems I need to get out to california and make a fortune like I did with my ripped up work jeans during that whole fad.

cars are lowered, trucks are raised. this is factual and undeniable. This guy lost the bet with himself.

 

[WickedPissah]

Hi.

Not necessarily my thing, but I'd guess quite a bit time, money and even skill has gone into that truck.

I bet the majority of posters here haven't done that much body or engine work. It's someones hobby. That's a product of that said hobby and I respect that.

ive done plenty of both and in order to get that toyota right I'd have to rebuild it entirely. A good project light truck starts with dana 44s front and rear and 6 inches of suspension lift. I'd just as soon that rotten b22(i think) be in a junkyard and the mounts gone so i can srop the 350 sbc, T350, np205 combo sitting in my garage into it. the bags I might keep though.

NOB hill! hehehehe

The OP's a Northern California weenie; probably lives on Nob Hill.

As opposed to a SoCal weenie?

I'll agree that maybe the OP should just move out of Norcal...maybe to SoCal.

Ah. Now I see why you're a moderator.

Ah. Now I see why you're a moderator.

Wow, that's a first.

i'd take it as a good deal if i were looking for a truck like that... not my style but not bad... thousands of man hours there.

was just talking to one of these guys at cruise night last night... his 1/3rd completed s10 was sitting on a trailer next to my f100 and i asked him "now, you go through all that work to fab up everything, why keep the v6?" and he simply said, "i dont care how it runs, just needs to look cool. the 6 clears the collumn, and if i could fit a 4 under the hood i'd prolly go that way."

to each his own... some people like to go low and slow, some slow (or fast) off road, some fast on the track.

and some people go insane and take a quad cab dodge 3/4 ton and make it run high 7s on the 1/8th

 

[Blackbird]

Snappy retort.

The best!

 

[jumbosilverette]

quick on the draw, too
