Heres a few of mine. '94 Chevy Silverado with a Mark III conversion kit(Traxxas Stampede mini version in front), '76 Pontiac Trans Am that sadly sits outside, '77 Pontiac Trans Am that is a nice driver for shows.
If things seem under control, you are just not going fast enough.
Re: we all have big toys too don't we? show off your ride!
Ok, here is one of mine, a 67 Pontiac LemansThe body work is 99% complete and it'll be in paint this spring. That's the plan anyway... It has a 454/T350 combo in it with full dual exhausts, black interior, buckets, console, and a his & hers shifter. Had to put a new radiator core support in it to get the fenders to line up. It was a very clean car with minimal rust, all of which one of my great friends repaired with new metal. It's going to be Pontiac Sunfire Yellow and I plan on changing the rims to aftermarket 17" PMD Rally 2 style. This is the second one I've owned, the first being a 66 that I sold because I was broke. I plan to keep this one forever since it was a gift from my wife.

In my case BMW stands for big money waster. Its not just nickel and dimeing me it twenty and fifty dollaring me. One thing I love about my Bronco is that its easy to work on and the parts are inexpensivedurb69 wrote:Shodog rippin' a BMW too! Man we should make a rc10talk BMW owners thread lol.

About 12 years ago I owned this E36 325 TDS.... it was slightly tweeked with hybrid turbo, larger intercooler & remapped ECU, It went like stink & suprised alot of people especially as this was before the words 'Performance' & 'Diesel' were rarely ever used in the same sentance.

Unfortunately the ease at which it would cruise at license loosing speeds was its (& nearly mine) downfall - I got pulled doing 110mph

Tsw evo r's? Used to be all the rage bitd in the uk!About 12 years ago I owned this E36 325 TDS.... it was slightly tweeked with hybrid turbo, larger intercooler & remapped ECU
This max power scan brings back memories of lusting after all those wheels as a spotty teenager!
My current car is a bit gay in the company of all these muscle cars
It sits on Bentley continental split rims and has been remapped to around 265bhp, also it sits a good bit lower now than in the pictures....

Haha - I used to buy Max Power each month religiously

The wheels on my BMW I believe were the plain original TSW Evos - the 'Rs' had a kind of bent-spoke design? They were a little out-of-date when I had the car, but painting them the anthracite colour freshened them up a bit.... that seemed to be before painting wheels different colour became popular. I had a Vauxhall Corsa before the BMW... that had the Speedline Allesio Cap wheels that are also featured in your scan!
Your TT looks sweet on the Bentley wheels - & its in the best colour

Re: we all have big toys too don't we? show off your ride!
I don't have many pics of my toys....I have this one of my daily driver when my brother in law detailed it. '04, 6 speed.
I've got an '87 Iroc in the garage sleeping, and a '73 RS/LT camaro also sleeping peacefully. No good pics however, not that you would want to see them in the sorry state they are in.-

Me too. It seems pretty chav-tastic with the benefit of hindsight!Haha - I used to buy Max Power each month religiously
Well remembered! I do know the wheels you mean. As for the speedline alessios, plenty of kids in old vauxhalls still seem to run these up here.The wheels on my BMW I believe were the plain original TSW Evos - the 'Rs' had a kind of bent-spoke design
Cheers! It has the silver leather too which is nice and fresh. The wheels are murder to keep clean, i have a different set on at this time of year....Your TT looks sweet on the Bentley wheels - & its in the best colour
