Kassabian's is a fun place to check out. My friend sold a car there, and I've been there a few times with him. they've got some nice cars, kinda pricey tho.

The pics are of two different cars, one has split window and the other doesn't. :crazy:

The interior pics are of the 66. Ooh, that may be the deal. Buy one, get one free. Cool. Go for it. :thumbs:

Steve,
This would be the ideal vehicle for you! We had a copy (without the Browning) on the ranch I grew up on in Colorado. Rubber tracks good for 50mph on the highway, real steel belted front tires capable of stopping a 30-06 bullet, 1/4" armor plate very hard to dent (you can get a hernia lifting the hood to check the oil), 4 speed gear box with low range and front wheel drive to get you out of those tough situations. Mileage is about the same as a BB Vette left in1st gear.
I wanted to get the bogeys chromed, body painted in high gloss paint, and drive it to college to pick up some high class sorority gal for a date. Unfortunately It never happened. :sad:

Chuck- You'll be pleased to know I got some additional wheel time behind the hyundai from Hell. I practice single-clutch and double-clutch downshifting, and am getting a lot better. Not brave enough to heel toe yet, and my right foot still drags a little when I wind out a gear and upshift. But I'm getting better! I've put maybe a full hour into practicing shifting and launching this week. :)

I was going to practice on Chuck's L-88 but had to settle for his Z06 instead. Oh well! :)
(Thank god the Z06 had TCS to save our lives.... mine especially, Chuck woulda wrung my neck for sure, the way I was driving that yellow baby-fighterjet...)
