      I wear a Fez. Fez-es are cool

        I curb checked the median on Galloway and Hillcrest, in the wrong direction in the 66 due to black ice.

          The truck - not necessarily the LS1 (although it would make it fun).

            If you do go with an old Mustang or similar, a Pertronix ignition upgrade (avoid Mallory Unilite at all costs) and at least front disc brakes should be mandatory. After that, improved handling and a dependable carb or even fuel injection will make it an easy to live with car.

              What's wrong with unilite? I've been running one for over 8 years.

                Had two of them randomly quit working. So I bought a secondhand Pertronix and haven't had a problem.

                  Might be because it was second hand. They had a reliability issue as well lately.

                    Any kind of sustained high heat in the engine compartment will cause the plastic in the "rotor" to melt, leaving you stranded. They are TERRIBLE, I don't know why anyone would use one of those. Get a real electronic ignition, or just use points.
