Saw a funny quote on another forum:
"Diamond Star Motors - who needs a dog when you can walk your crank?" :lol:


Heh-- I think I've heard them all at this point. :)

Ironically enough I have a DSM currently sitting in the driveway. At least until I can find the dang title...

I actually haven't had any real issues with it. I replaced a leaky radiator hose and the radiator itself as a preventative measure. Other than a busted driver's side axle, that's the extent of the stuff I've had to fix.

Dissed? Not me-- I was just looking for a bit of clarification. :)

Heck, I used to own an SVT. Of course it was a real SVT in the form of a '99 F150 Lightning. 8) <sniff> I never should have sold that truck.

And I currently own half-a-Ford. Although the Ford half is currently out of the car getting rebuilt but I'm not going to hold that against it. :D

Title is not required to sell. Just show up at the DMV with your ID, the buyer, and $50. Tell them you lost the title, hand over the extra bucks, and *poof* like magic they will issue a new title.

You're doing it again! :cry:

Wait, am I being too sensitive?

BTW my brother's Forlvo, Volvord? is for sale, I think - Ford Racing crate motor and manual transmission.

I've done a few events with it so far and am pretty impressed with the handling, it could use a touch more power as its pretty outgunned in GS against the Impreza RS, Mini Cooper S etc but oh well...in time I guess.

Looking forward to this weekend down in Sanford :D


Just drop a BMW 6 cyl. in your car, that will make a fun car....and will keep it reliable.

Naw, that time I was actually dissing it. :D

I actually wouldn't mind driving it sometime to see what all the fuss is about. That is, if you'll still speak to me... :lol:

Sure - I'd love to see what it can do. Maybe at the Danville 2-day?
