Sea Ray Posted December 9, 2020 Report Share Posted December 9, 2020 Detroit was making some real crap in that era. The Japanese cars were far better quality in the late 70s/early 80s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did own a 73 2 door impala for a bit, simply nicknamed 'the boat', i think each door weighed 500 pounds lol. Also had a nice 1976 Malibu, that was a respectable car but I wrecked it. Speaking of shite cars, my brother had a Ford Capri, cant recall the year but my dad would not let him park it on the driveway as it was always dropping fluids lol My mom loved muscle cars. She had a 1969 GTO with the Hurst Dual gate shifting option. Dad blew the engine going to Muncie one day. Junked it (Ooofff) She then got a 1973 Pontiac Grand Am. After 7 years in Ohio it was rusty as hell but had a 400 4bbl TH-350 in it and it could fly. I wrecked it a little and the insurance company goes,”We ain’t fixing that rusty piece of crap”. After the Newport piece of shit she got a 300ZX with the manual tranny. Then an Infinity Q45 and now at 82 drives an Infinity G35. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, Datsun 280Z turbo was an awesome little car. 300ZX was a really comfortable, easy, and fun car to drive. Drove it all the way to Dez Moans Iowa and back for a wedding once. There is about a 300 mile stretch between Indy and Iowa where no humans live. You can drive fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He spoke to Mike Brown and asked for changes to the team and Mikey told him that was not going to happen. The plan is solid as is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously, the surgery was a success. I mean we didn’t know Alex Smith almost died for a year. Expect almost no factual updates. Besides, it’s the offseason so us mods are not paying attention.

I mean doctor... ? Or something?" Or something more extreme from someone like Catfish or someone else who pops in with an extreme viewpoint every once in a while: "You hear about this thing though? Joe Burrow is a TRANNY! Yeah yeah someone on this Bengal board I read said Joe Burrow got injured, and then he broke his rod and they had to replace parts with a tranny! Yeah man it's real crazy in Ohio right now..." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
