That Vanning really seals the deal!

TTMT: It's in a scene from one of my favorite movies. THE POPE OF GREENWICH VILLAGE. Mickey Rourke was/is one of my heroes. I couldn't believe it when I heard he was making a comeback.
Eric Roberts actually had the line, but he did a great job too. I saw it when I was 16 and have worn my hair like he did in that movie since. Well, the corporate world has made me turn it down a notch, but I have to feed my family...Seriously though, if I were rich I'd offer big$$ for this ride...

You ain't kiddin'! I thought I was sick 'til I stumbled upon this site. I also thought I knew a lot about RC10s. Man was I wrong! Come to find out I know nothing! I have learned that I like to look at old RC10s, but honestly have no desire to own one unless it's NIB. Weird...

Sorry if that sounds arrogant didn't mean it to..just trying to make you feel better that you can't afford them..no that's not right either..forget it.

A. NO ONE CAN EVER OFFEND ME!! I'm too comfortable with myself for that.
B. I knew what you meant. It's all about Priorities(spelling?)
If you have a great collection...SHARE IT!!! That's why I hang out on this site so much.

How does the front of your car sit? Mine seems a little high. I am thinking about making a new shock mount to try and lower the front suspension a little bit. I just finished painting the metal parts for my car. As soon as I get the car back together I will post some pics of it.

Hi Gordon
Yes it does sit a little high...I made a new shock tower but I might have to make another...or us shorter shocks..can't wait for your pics

[tizeye]
