Arcturus74 0 Posted May 7, 2008 Report Share Posted May 7, 2008 Just purchased a 7.62X39 Saiga. Already own guns of the AR family, but wanted something different this time around. I'm in the middle of finals right now so I haven't gotten a chance to take it out, but I'm excited about it. Don't have a picture yet, but heres a picture of the other thing I spend a ton of money on: My 1974 Chevy Nova Looks like an informative forum, happy I found it!

Elkhound 91 Posted May 7, 2008 Report Share Posted May 7, 2008 Reminds me of my 1976 Oldsmobile Omega. It was a nice Red and white, with white bucket seats and a sun roof, but it had that pathetic V6! WJ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rangerdavid 6 Posted May 7, 2008 Report Share Posted May 7, 2008 Hay, in 1976 I was driving a Mustang II. I remember that there was enough room under the hood you could almost crawl in and stand up in there...... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Elkhound 91 Posted May 7, 2008 Report Share Posted May 7, 2008 This thread is bringing back mostly bad memories of the unreliable cars I drove in high school and college. Rangerdavid, those Mustant IIs were something. Weren't they about as reliable as the Chevette? They looked a whole lot better, but I seem to recall that they had many reliability issues. How about the Mercury Bobcat? Does anyone remember that? I think it was a fancy Pinto. Of course, that was an era when smog controls were really in their infancy and fuel injection was almost unheard of in a passenger car. But, at least a regular guy could work on those cars. I think it would take about three years of intensive training to have a clue as to what is going on under the hood of a modern car. WJ Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Arcturus74 0 Posted May 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2008 Not surprised other car nuts are gun enthusiasts as well. In addition to my 74, we have a 53 chevy pickup we're working on for my sister, and a 1950 plymouth 2 door my dad wants to make into a cruiser. Thanks for the warm welcomes guys!
