I'm thinking about buying a new car for work.What do you guys think of a 1966 GTO ? It would be for advertising purposes. Not souped up, not looking like a hot rod, just cherry, mint condition factory looks with our slogan on the side. In a market of 1500 realtors we are looking for different ways to set ourselves apart from everyone else. Yes I know gas milage will suck. I'm thinking GTO because it will not scare old women like a Cuda or a roadrunner but still offer a little nostalgia for my clients who are mostly 50+ years old. I also know it will be prone to break down. I'm pretty good with a wrench so I'm not too worried about it. Parts for old cars are pretty cheap. Old cars are also much easier to work on.

Gun turret thing is a semi operational $300.00 pile in a corner.I bought the motors, I bought the controller card, I hooked it all up to the computer, installed the software and everything did what it was supposed to. I have yet to build the stand and mount the motors. When I was planning it I had all the free time in the world. Since the parts arrived I have been working 14 hour days, 6 1/2 days a week. I may not get back to it till winter :-(

When I first saw the title of this thread I had a Rod Roddy flashback. I thought someone was going to be playing Plinko or bidding on a showcase.Dude, you know what you need.

Shit, since Delorean died, those cars are gonna be fuckin expensive now. Just get a Lotus. Actually, get one of the newer muscle cars coming out, like a Solstice. They're around $20K. [ 05-12-2005: Message edited by: Flux ] --------------------

I don't pretend to know these things. My roommate talks about cars a lot, and I thought I heard him say a Solstice was a muscle car, but I know he wouldn't get that mixed up. He knows cars pretty well. I don't. Consider me slapped. (97 Saturn S. It cuts the mustard.) --------------------
