No words of wisdom from me Greg, you and the wifey know what you can do and what you want. If I had to bet, I would bet on you grabbing the Camaro, You wantit, but can "you" really do it?<br><img src="http://www.ezboard.com/image/posticons/pi_hippie.gif" width="20" height="20" alt="image">Later, Steve<br>
<font color="#333333">Buy the Camaro. Just debating which car to buy or whether to buy a car is probably messing with your health and raising your bloodpressure. Buy the Camaro. and also get yourself checked out health wise. Don't want you croaking while driving that beauty! I say the Camaro becauseit's local. If there is a problem, you can go back to the seller. If you have house issues and need the money , you can probably sell the Camaro fasterthan the other one since there are many more Camaro fans out there. and finally , the Camaro is available as a redline. So buy a beater and have someonepaint it black.<br><br><br>Goodluck . Maribell</font>
Greg,buy the Road Runner......I know I'm going to hear it from the Chevy fans,but the 396 isn't a great motor...Sorry Chevy fans....<br><br>Philbert

I voted #4 as I recall you are a big time gamer why not hire a contractor (they could use the work) make an absolute killer game/movie room. You mentioned thatthe house might need some repair so kill 2 birds with 1 stone. I am guessing you would spend more time in the game room than the car (but I could be wrong).
Ok!<br>After much review and thinking, I was struck at how divided the results were in this poll,<br>which was exactly how I felt.<br>In truth, I didn't want to drop $25k right now, and I like re-making a car the way I want to.<br>But I also love raw power...<br><br>Today I saw, and purchased, a 1969 Mercury Montego!<br>"WHAT?!?" Never heard of it!<br>I didn't know I wanted one until I saw it. <br>This car is BUILT, it was built by a very talented gear head for the 1/4 mile strip.<br><br><img src="http://home.earthlink.net/~99octane/02/Montego-day1-01.jpg" alt="image"><p><br></p><br><img src="http://home.earthlink.net/~99octane/02/Montego-day1-02.jpg" alt="image"><br><p><img src="http://home.earthlink.net/~99octane/02/Montego-day1-03a.jpg" alt="image"><br><br><img src="http://home.earthlink.net/~99octane/02/Montego-day1-04.jpg" alt="image"><br><br><img src="http://home.earthlink.net/~99octane/02/Montego-day1-05.jpg" alt="image"><br><br>The car's sheet metal is 100% there, no filler.<br>The interior is bare bones - no rug, racing buckets, gagues everywhere.<br>The exhaust is glass packs that open in front of the rear wheels near the differential.<br>There's a high volume electric fuel pump under the rear frame.<br>LOTS of things for me to do before it's a street legal car again, but I'm going to have a ton of fun doing it.<br>I went for a test ride in it ... it's a monster. 575 HP, dyno'd!<br><br>Drivetrain: 460 CID Engine (That's 7.5 Liters for those doing the metric system)<br>Built C-6 Transmission with all racing parts, 9" Rear end. "Fast" is too weak a word to describe it.<br>Never hit, could use new brightwork and details stuff.<br>But I picked this car up for $8,500 - almost FIFTEEN THOUSAND DOLLARS cheaper tha nthe Camaro and<br>EIGHTEEN THOUSAND DOLLARS less than the Roadrunner.<br> Next summer's gonne be FUN. Not to mention this winter, in my garage. <img src="http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/laugh.gif"><br><br>Thanks to all on Redlines Online for the input and being there as a sounding board for me.<br>Great minds .... <br>About the Poll:<br>Add up choices 3 and 4 and it beats either the Camaro or the Roadrunner.<br>HA! I listed a Chevy and a Mopar, and snuck up and bought a Ford! LOL Greg<br>:)<br><br></p><br>
Nice!
