I would much rather have gone to the Auto-Rama than the fucking Detroit casino last night. A bigger waste of my time I could not have imagined.

Neat! I didn’t expect there to be a GT there. Undecided on whether that shade of red looks better with a stripe or not.

Mopar had the hellcat powered jeep but I couldn’t get a shot. I think it looks better without but gt350 is horrible in yellow.

There was a Durango SRT on display but it’s so massive I couldn’t get a good shot of it. It uses the 392 tho. Don’t recall anything extraordinary from Jeep.

Coincidentally, we also had a GT350 but in red... with stripes.

Dude was super cool too. It was in super chevy magazine if I remember right. Alot of hidden work in that but not overtly done. Pretty sweet.

Now were talking! That’s stunning. Hellcat powered jeep is a one off.

That Pacer, did it come out of a museum, who bought one new and kept it in that nice shape?

I was there Saturday morning. yes, that General Lee they jumped is a decrepit piece of junk they use only for those stunts. at this point it’s less 1969 Charger and more Bondo, hasty welds, duct tape, and chewing gum.

I was amused when TTAC published this. bunch’a’ Canadian putzes.

It was spotless. Damn good question no one was around it when we went by. The interior was unbelievable.

It definitely looks like the kind of vehicle that’s had a lot of attention to detail paid to it, despite it’s apparent rawness.

Basement has the best stuff. Some of it gets a little “forced”, but still the best.

I actually know the guys who built the Thunder Belle car. They plan on running it at Milan once it’s fully done. Think they said this Summer. It’s a father/son. My dad’s buddies with the father.

Cool! They sure went all out. Glad to hear they plan on running it at the track.

It’s a 15 year project, probably 16 now actually. It went from a regular old shoebox with the 90s style round spoke Torq Thrusts into the badass gasser it is now.
