What's cool and what isn't!!

I hate to be like Mr. Blackwell on Oscar night, but just like millionaire movie stars make major fashion gaffes in what they wear, enthusiasts do this with how they build their cars. Here's some guidelines on what works in the car-guy world and what doesn't.  # 1. A '55 Chevy with a snarling 327, a 4-speed, a straight axle and radiused fenderwells and big slicks is just as cool now as it was in 1965.  # 2. A '55 Chevy with a TPI 350, a 700R4 automatic, air ride suspension and 20 inch wheels and 30 series tires is not cool, and never will be.  # 3. A 1967 Mustang with a solid-lifter 289 and a 4-speed, done up like a Trans-Am racer is way cool.  # 4.  A '67 Mustang with a fuel-injected "5.0" and a T5 out of a late '80's or early '90's Mustang is so passe' that I want to vomit day-glo. # 5. A '69 Corvette with a solid-lifter, snarling 427, headers and un-muffled chrome sidepipes and Rock-crusher is a death threat to collectivism and political correctness, and the nanny state, a glorious celebration of rugged indivualism and macho american power overkill at it's finest.  # 6. A '69 'Vette with a supercharged LS9,an electronic six-speed auto and all the electronics to make it work is a microcosm of what's wrong with our society- Too damn many people with more money than brains. # 7 A '70's Camaro that's been "Pro Streeted" -a homage to Pro Stock drag cars-i.e.- narrowed rear end, monster meats, and a snarling 454 with a tunnel-ram and dual 660 Holleys says what Jule's wallet in "Pulp Fiction" said.  # 8. A '70's Camaro with a modern LS3 and a six-speed is like an opinion or other body part-everybody has one.  See the difference?  Mastermind
