I'll take six!

OK, so its not for a Ford persay..... but it could fit a ranger. The sad part is, im sure these things are very popular with the people who buy Fast and Furious seat covers http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...category=42610

I once saw fake brake rotors. Makes the rear drum brakes look like really cool disc brakes. Except for one thing, there ain't no caliper. The 'rotor' gets put between the drum and rim. Them things are stupid. People will buy anything these days.

Ooops - guess I didn't go down far enough.

It seemed reasonable that Rich wanted "6" of them.

I guess there is a girl on that page. I didnt even notice that till you pointed it out Carlene. I wish I still had the picture of a C1500 with 8 exhaust pipes out the back. 'Dude, this guy is running like.....8 turbos!!!' hehe

This reminds me of those fake blowers that were around a few years ago. Some of them even had a belt turning.
I came up to a stop one night about 20 years ago, next to this radical looking camero with a blower sticking out of the hood. I was driving my 66 olds 442. I slide it into 1st and get ready to drop the clutch when the light changes. The guy just granny's away. After 2 or three lights of me trying to get him to fire, he runs a red to duck me and we don't see him again. I saw the camero about a month later in a car show and it had one of those fake blowers on it. What a dufas thing. We were always the opposite, trying to hide what we really did have.

With function comes style.

Wow I can make my truck sound like I have a turbo, wait, my PSD does and it ACTUALLY makes power! How cool is that!

Some cars, all show and no go. Personally I like sleepers. Nothing like getting blown away by that rusted out bucket.

You sure those weren't just brake dust covers to keep the wheels clean? I wouldn't suprise me if somebody did do that, just checking.
