This is going to seem off in left field, but… it's must be some kinda coinsidance when my last name is Bond, my grand dad calls milk "molk" and that this thing has been in a James Bond film. Maybe it's the fact that I'm staying in a hotel room right now, I've had 9 beer and I haven't drank in 5 weeks :lol:

Cool car, cheers!

Nice, the Torino Cobra is one of the few Ford muscle-cars I like, and is that a green AMX on the lift? Those are awesome little cars, too! Back in the day, an AMX handed me my ass (my '70 Charger). After the race, I found out it had the rare 390 hi-po big block in it...that kind of cubes in that small a car is a deadly combo.

There are a lot of very nice rides here. I am a big Pontiac fan and a bit of a closet Mopar fan. Here are my two project vehicles;

First my fun driver that is currently sitting while I source a new ECU and rewire the harnes for it. It's an '86 Dodge Shelby charger with an '87 Turbo II top end and an inter cooler:

And My baby, a 1978 Pontiac Trans Am Fire AM. The product of suspension Guru Herb Adams. He and Matt are on my case to get this thing finished one of these days. It's build up is documented on Trans Am Country if anybody is interested:

I always kinda dug those Shelby Chargers. They have a habit of turning up for sale when I have no money, and/or no place to put another car.

And I'm very happy to see a manual transmission going into that Trans Am. That's as it should be...

Love the Shelby Charger! I remember begging my Dad to buy me one when I was turning 16. No way he was going to spend over $10k on a car for me though. :?

The biggest issue with those Shelbys is they should never have had the "Charger" nameplate on them. Should've been the Shelby Omni, not Charger. :P

I had a Shelby Shadow CSX-T. Loved it. Hated changing head gaskets
