[AAR65]

69 Z28 versus AAR 340 Six Pack Cuda
69 L78 (375 Horse 396) Camaro Versus 70 Hemi Challenger

What do you like?

Been taking some flak from a few die hard MOPAR guys here for being a car *****. I call it being eclectic.

On a C body board? Do a GT Fury against an Impala SS

Still working on the feel of this place. I like the cars that cost the same to restore as higher end cars, but are worth little when done. Think my first gen Montes, my 65 442, the two 9 second Malibus. All have $30k plus in them each, and I see that in my 65 Fury. And the end game is maybe a $12-15k sale IF I ever part with any of them.

Not sure why I throw good money after bad at any of the oddballs, but I know what I like. My 65 Fury is completely kickass and I fell in love the day it came to me six months ago with a dead starter and no brakes. I finally bought it a month ago and plan on a true drivers resto. Lose the rust, polish the trim, and a really big engine.

But here is a question. Could you compare a 64 SS409 4 speed Impala to a 426 wedge 4 speed Sport Fury? Serious question. Everyone knows one exists, and the gene pool that knows about the other is pretty shallow.

Meh.

What do you like?

Cars. It's just a matter of degree.

 

[67Monaco]

Cars. It's just a matter of degree.

Wait. I thought you hated everything, it was all just a matter of degree?

 

[commando1]

People: I hate everybody.
Cars: I like them all.
Cats: All love -zero hate.

 

[70NPORT]

I think that I will go with the mopars.

And see here I was happy when my dogs ate the wife's cats. We're the same except for the cat thing. :eusa_whistle:

 

[commando1]

Union, non-union, cats, dogs.... makes sense.

 

[Catfish]

Wait, I am non-union and like cats...Oh, and Chevy sucks.

 

[livininharrow]

this thread is just weird.

 

[67Monaco]

wait, i am non-union and like cats...oh, and only wimps drive bow-ties.

fify.

 

[detmatt]

Meh.

Was kind of hoping to not see this term used seriously on this sight but we're growing so I guess it was inevitable...

 

[GooBak]

Ok I'll bite...

I'd take the... oh wait, I'd take all the mopars... though (and I'm sure i'll be waterboarded for this) I'd take a 64 SS409 Impala over a Sport Fury... BUT that's because of 2 things; 409 valve covers and I don't like stacked headlights...

Fun fact! The "396" in 1969 was actually a 402... my buddy found that out the hard way...

Well it's just that mental masturbation is... well, meh. Hence the use. Clarification as to how they're being compared. Drag race, road course, looks? I don't have time for it. Besides what are we twelve? I haven't heard a comparison like that since I was in little league.

 

[polara71]

Yet you commented

 

[67Monaco]

that's what we do..

 

[GooBak]

See where I grew up it was Camaro vs mustang and chevelle vs fairlane... the closest anyone came to giving a fluck about mopars was my shop teachers jeep obsession...

 

[Catfish]

Sorry your childhood sucked.
