Been in NJ for about 7 years now, Indiana before and California before that. This place has definitely grown on me. Cant imagine myself anywhere else to be honest..

I used to stay in Newark for some time, used to go to college there. and now stay in Kearny, not exactly very far from Morristown. Read your story about the hotwheels btw, what a great guy..

ahh nice.

I miss Morristown sometimes. Tons of automotive advertising out here though.

and yeah, really great guy. I'm surprised he didnt even give me crap for posting that big article. He's even too nice for that lol. I could tell he was a bit embarrassed though.

well I assume it would be

I hope he finds a place with actual shifter karts that put you on the verge of death, not the kids karts with 5hp briggs engines on them.

Actually have never been to Detroit, but I can Imagine it would be big on car culture. NJ is not too bad now, we have a fair share of cars and coffee meets.. but more than anything, I like driving some of the roads around here, in general just exploring the back roads.. (maybe not the ones around Newark and places close by lol).. but some roads around High point or around the pine barrens are great.

Oh definitely. the roads out here are for the most part boring and straight. Very grid based.

I always had trouble with the euro/JDM obsession on the east coast, I've always been a die-hard american car guy....I fit in better car wise here lol

Most of Indiana is filled with arrow straight roads as well, not a very big fan of the roads there.. JDM/Euro meets are still pretty big, I drive a euro myself . But I kinda stay away, it is generally not the kind of crowd I would like to be around. I had some idiot in a 240sx chase me down the palisades parkway trying to race. But that said Whisky cafe meets are still one of my favorites, some of the best American cars show up there..

Yeah, let me talk to him and see when he wants to set it up..

Well if I make it out there in the Montego sometime in my life lol I'll be sure to hit it up.

I assume you've seen pics/video of my 68?

Definitely, send me a message. I actually haven't seen your Montego. Would love to see it.

Whoa! you have a 302 in it? thats a really cool car. And always love the sound of a Ford V8..

Check this out they are 2 of the loudest cars in my cruising group.

MontegoMan562 is a Capri RS Owner > Ilike_cougars
11/26/2013 at 17:02

yep its a 302. Originally a 2 barrel. I pulled that and put in a Edelbrock Performer RPM Intake and a 4 barrel Holley carb. Then I put on the exhaust, which is true dual Super 44 Flowmasters. They sound even better in person! Next step is to get a couple spots in the floor fixed, then carpet...the headliner...then rear deck(interior)...then wheels and tires...then....then...then...

life of a project car. One of the loudest at the car show and I don't even have headers though. And a small block no less!

DAMN those things sound really great for modern V8s!

Impressive, the Camaro was phenominal!
