    Thinkin of buying a bike!

    Well, I was either going to save up for a new ninja 250R or not get a bike, but then I came across what might be a good deal. I am wanting some opinions. I'm not sure of the year (almost definitely less than 7 years old) Ninja 250 with ~8,500 miles on it. This chick I work with has it and...

    The great debate... fun car vs real world

    I keep going back and forth on my 1967 mustang. It needs a lot of work but could be such an amazing car if I dumped my money into it. Here's the dilemma... I can dump money into this car and pray to god gas doesn't hit $8 a gallon... or I can save my money and have a good start...

    SVTP needs a chatroom thing

    When things are kinda slow at work, or late at night... just somethin to sit on here and shoot the bull with people. It really would help as far as preventing stupid topics in roadside and such. Any chance of it?

    Hit a snag in life... opinions on what to do...

    I have run into a string of unfortunate events lately, which leaves me to make some decisions. Long story short- I do not come from a rich family, but my parents do try their best for me. They bought me a 2006 Honda Civic for college. I pay for my college, my gas, my food, basicly...

    Official Credit Questions and Answers Thread.

    With threads popping up every so often about credit scores, improving them, and establishing credit, I figured an official Credit Questions and Answers Thread was needed. I'll kick things off... How many lines of credit (credit cards) is good/bad to have? I know your debt to income...

    Questioning my path in life... (college related)

    I am beginning to wonder if the path I am taking will actually make me happy in life. I honestly do not know if 20 years from now I'm going to be happy what I am doing, regardless of how much I make. Right now I am majoring in Mechanical Engineering. I am half way through my sophmore year...

    My 67 Rustang really is rusting away...

    Every piece i take off this damn car, I find more rust. How can I find all of it and be done with it once and for all? What's the best method to find/remove all the rust? I've heard about sandblasting, chemical dipping, hand sanding, etc, but I do not know what is the best way to go about...

    My 67 Coupe Restomod (sorta) project.

    I have removed all the fenders, hood, trunk, and begun sanding the 40 year old paint and subsequent repaints off of it. I am really trying to get this car done before I graduate college. Here is my basic plan (with some changes as I go): Sonic Blue with Flat Black Stripes 4.6L 4v Modular...

    Reproduction vs Ford Parts (67 Mustang)

    So I bought my mustang 2 weeks ago, and it needs a lot of work. I am trying to price up a lot of the pieces so give myself an idea of how to budget things to make this car happen. The Ford original pieces are nearly four times more than the reproduction pieces. How well do reproduction...

    Modular 67 Mustang.... some questions!

    My goal for my 67 Coupe is to have a mild teskid block TT 4.6L, and one important aspect would be to make the car handle that kinda power. Which is going to be more streetable, and more balanced for spirited driving/balls to the wall racing.... air ride suspension or coilover?

    Need Photoshops!!! 67 Mustang Coupe

    I bought a 1967 Mustang Coupe this morning. I will post pictures in a few days. I am trying to decide what color it should be, and I've narrowed it down to two colors (almost identical, but different). What I need is a 67 coupe photoshopped in these two colors to compare! Sonic Blue...

    So I can finally sit with the big boys! (maybe)

    Sunday I am making a 2 hour trip with a truck and trailer to buy a 67 Coupe roller for $750. It's a piece, but it won't be when I am finished! Finally, no more torque deprivation, no more coke bottle vs displacement jokes. :banana: The Civic will assume DD status instead of "only car" status...

    Credit Card Question... Cash Withdrawal?

    How does this affect your balance? Is it just the same as a purchase? For example, if I have a card that allows me to withdraw $1,000 in cash, but a much higher (obviously) limit (say $5,000), would it negatively affect my credit to withdraw the entire $1,000?
