ACAMS i like my car just he way it is, but that was actually a thought but decided against it a little to big for such a small car. It was funny none the less
p.s. do u mean an 871 blower?

I know a guy who has a '69 AMC Javelin.

Usually you see AMC left off of most lists, which disappoints me.

Frezal I had a feeling somebody would post up something like that lol

looks like the suspension is screwed on that one.

GameKing3 · « **Reply #28 on:** June 29, 2009, 11:53:49 AM »

no its probably got airbags or something so it can raise and lower the car.

Don't see many cars like that in the Mid-US, let alone slammed. It's pretty cool though.

Edit: A note on my pulling tractors:
The blue one used to have blue street glows underneath it, a blue light-up shifter knob, and blue Tireflies (motion-sensitive light-up valve stem caps). It was pretty cool, but we took it all off when it got repainted. I hope to put it all back on someday.

WOW that is one pimped out lawnmower.

HurricaneAndrew · « **Reply #31 on:** June 29, 2009, 04:56:31 PM »

Yeah, it was pretty pimp. lol

GameKing3 · « **Reply #32 on:** June 29, 2009, 05:02:06 PM »

How fast do you think it would go if it where on the street. (although im going to assume its gears are set low for pulling weight sleds). Tell me anyway.

HurricaneAndrew · « **Reply #33 on:** June 29, 2009, 06:42:50 PM »

I estimate that it can do about 15-20 mph, and you're right they are geared pretty low.

This tractor, on the other hand...:

has been clocked pulling the sled 22 mph. It has a motorcycle engine in it, not sure of the size. I took this picture, but it's hard to catch with a digital camera.

Here is a link to a video I took of it pulling:

Check this one out, too:

I almost got run over, but I moved just in time.

That was hilarious you saw it coming and just froze. LOL

I'm not sure why I took so long to move. I think I was so focused on getting a good video that I didn't even notice it was heading straight for me.

I found an old picture of my Camaro so i do not have to take a new one so here it is.

HurricaneAndrew · « **Reply #37 on:** June 29, 2009, 11:55:52 PM »

What size motor? 350?

GameKing3 · « **Reply #38 on:** June 29, 2009, 11:58:56 PM »

It has a 350. I have a 83 camaro that i inherited from my grandparents that has a 305 in it. But all the 83 does is sit in a garage.

HurricaneAndrew · « **Reply #39 on:** June 30, 2009, 12:02:33 AM »

You should drop a 406 in the '83. You know, just for fun.
