I watched the first one. In short: we have already reached our peak oil production & are running out. No one wants to talk about it & the gov't is keeping us from this info. And that we do not have a good solution to provide the resources for the amount of energy that we use. Also, this guy is...

Creating an emergency fund first is key. Then creating a budget and sticking with it. My wife & I use this tool.NEXT STEPS: Personal Finance - Providing PRACTICAL Next Steps Toward Financial Freedom Kids are an added expense, but you do have a 9 month timeline to prepare for them. I just...

They are impressive, but I'd be mad if I had a 05-09 GT then they came out with a V6 with the same HP. They are really heavy and a new V6 costs what an 09 GT would. A friend bought an 08 GT/CS new for $28K. An '10 GT/CS runs about $45K. That's crazy! Their not that much different of a...

Bye bye middle class! We simply do not have enough people saving enough money to keep a middle class going. There is going to be major class differences in another few years I'm afraid. My parents are as guilty as anyone. They have never really lived beyond their means, but they didn't save...

I always liked this shot I took while driving in BG a few years ago. My friend Kevin is in front of me. I liked how the hood showed up. I like to call this "the Hunt" because, my car will always be faster as he never drives/races his to find out how fast it really may be! Here's to you Kev!

Thanks. They were from Welcome to Team 3 Wheels The nice thing is that they do completely custom builds. The centers are welded at whatever offset you'd like. I had 17X8's front 17X9.5's rear without any cutting. It was tight, but I loved the look. The centers were on major back order so I...

I remember seeing this place^^ years ago in BG. I guess it's still around? I wanted to stop and take a pic of it back then.

Thanks for the compliment Tim. I did everything I wanted to this car, but I never drove it and decided to go back to college so it had to go. If I had a chance I'd build one just like it again. This one was with my dad's 32 Ford. His looks cool, but with a solid front axle it's scary to drive!

I don't know why this didn't work the first time.

This car is now in NJ. Maybe some day I'll have another.

I got the new a arms and spindles on here for $500 and finished price was around $650 after rotors(autozone $65), calipers($15 each), and pads. The factory brake line seems to be a bit long also. I need to bleed the brakes again tonight using a vacume hand pump, then see how it stops. Last...

I did the 12" brake upgrade with the Hotchkis arms. I'm going with 17's all around and would really like this thing to handle. I found a place that will do a custom alignment, but wonder about what to set it to. someone P.M. me these #'s Caster: +2.5 deg driverside +3.0 deg pass...

Everybody has TT2's around here. I want to be different, kind of like the GN is. I'll post picks once these are mounted. Going for a totally different look. Kind of a vintage racing style. Can't wait, though, they said delivery will take about 3 weeks. I'll figure my offset hopefully...

Accully I understand the math, just was wondering how that tire size would fit on a 9.5" rim. I would think it would pull it in a bit. I've measured a bout 11.2" of clearance in the rear and that's cutting it a bit close . Maybe I counld roll the fender lip? Ryan

Thanks a lot! I couldn't exactly follow your math though? Any help there? Ryan
