sharing beds...

maybe with a sibling, family - but sorry - no other exceptions.

I get four weeks holidays next year, and am over due on driving out that way...

If I did go there I might even pop in at a friends shop;
1973 350 Formula

If I did pop by their place for a visit, it would be my third visit - with a different car every time!

When in the Chicago area, I'd strongly encourage setting aside an afternoon to go here;
Volo Auto Museum - Hollywood Star Car Collection and Auto Attractions

I went up there on my first visit to the Chicago area with the family that runs that shop - and I gotta say, it was freaking awesome!

I mean... you've driven all that way - why not make it worthwhile!?!

last time I was at volo a couple cars from fast & furious were there;
they have one big part that is a museum for tv/movie cars, another section that doubles as a dealership for muscle/specialty cars, another building that houses the tv/other cars that they don't have in their fancy showroom...
then an whole different building for the older/specialty vehicles....
then another building for antiques and stuff...

but in all, driving around chicago - sucks bawlz.
I'd rather drive around LA any day.

Mark still has that at his shop...

I'm pretty sure he has pictures hosted somewhere of one of the earlier meets (before I came on the scene) which has a couple close ups of it.

@jordan i like the g5 lip better coz its less body kit look and flatter..... it has style and smooth lines.... the ss rear lip is like ricey.... but in a good way hahahahaha.... i will most likely use my ss frt bumper coz i like my grille and i like everything about it..... now if there where a clean side skirt with some nice lines i go with that.... but i may bite the bullet and go wingless this time..... unless i customize one.... regardless i have some ideas that will be just well simply said its me..... i kinda wanna make it a mutated cross of cars taking the best and scraping the rest..... remember one thing jordan.... to achieve a sweet looking lowered ride... it not achieved with skirts.... its achieved with some sweet springs such as tenzo r's hahahahaha sitting and waiting.... stance is everything hahahahahaha and yes i do tell that to my gf....


@steve no worries man..... your girls is sweet and nice too..... she also has a nicer looking car then some guys out there too......
