Some nice cars there! I'm not one to be making negative comments but damn that purple sunfire is rough. Looks like its barely holding together going down the highway! Hopefully he has plans to straighten it out.

Wojo, I have only ever seen your car dirty, so when I saw it clean, I didn't even notice it!

I like the white cav with the CB..Any interior pics of it? I have been considering mounting one up, but didn't really know where to put it inside

I mean, it's cool that you got some J's together, but I'm not all that impressed with the cars themselves.

That purple one looks like it was on it's way to the yard, most of the others are banged up, dented and without body-color-painted parts. The paint scheme on that two-toned one looks horrible on the trunk and I spotted at least one set of Pep-Boy special fog lights and turned-purple-over-the-course-of-eight-years tint.

The SS Cobalts were nice, at least

Its not about the cars, its about getting a group of friends together, with a common intrest, and enjoying the day

I don't know why I'm even replying to your post... I've pretty much stopped coming to JBO, but figured I'd troll around once and see what's new...

I apologize that those cars are not up to your standard. As mentioned, for some folks, it really doesn't matter what the car looks like, but who owns the vehicle matters more. I also apologize that some of those vehicles must endure harsh Montana winters (I dare you to do the same) and, at this current point in time, are nothing more than a daily driver, not something out to be a "show stopper".

Lastly, I'd rather drive 1200 miles with an unpainted front bumper through the desert.... don't have to worry about rock chips that way.

Y'know what...all I did was make an observation on the quality of some of those cars. It does not take a lot of money to prime, rattle can, clear and wet-sand a spoiler. It doesn't cost a lot to fix a hanger on an exhaust, flush-mount a fog light or peel off purple tint. You claim this post was "all about the people" and yet you post upwards of 70 pictures of cars. Why is that?

And just so you know, I drove my car year-round for about 4 or 5 N.Y. winters and it still wears original paint, save for the kit.

Lastly, how RD Fabs does business is definitely not related to what I post or how I post it. If it bothers people that much that I have personal opinions, still, I'll take the logo out of my sig. The shop is packed to the walls with tuners, street rods and motorcycles and we have customers booked 3 months out. It's not because we do bad work or treat people poorly if you get my drift.

My tint is blue because I want it to be it has been since installed not becuase its faded to purple.

My spoiler doesnt match because its only there to fill the holes in the trunk until I can afford a carbon trunk.

Also, My car is daily driven, its my only car and it sees winter summer fall spring weather, I have no garage to park it in, it has its flaws, but its 100k+ solid running work in progress, you try and keep your car pristine with all that on top of it, and pay to do body work/ paint it with 2 kids and a low to nonexistent income. Not trying to say I have an excuse, man do I wish my car was flawless, perfect paint, and boosted already, but until I'm done buying boost parts/ internals, the outside of her is of no concern. Im poor. LOL

The point of the meet was not about tkaing pics of show quality cars, its about the people, NWGME is like a family and thats why we kick it no matter what condition our cars are in.

Personally i love your work at RDFABS, which I lived closer so you could build on my car/ make it a show stopper. But please dont think down on us because we dont all drive show cars, that ignorant.

Lets jsut clear up the why is this car not painted, why is this car this way posts by saying every car pictured in this thread is a work in progress, slwo progress, lol.

It's kind of funny reading this thread. You posted up a sh!tload of pictures of cars, and then people get their panties in a bunch over negative comments.

I agree 100% that car meets aren't so much about the cars as much as they are about getting together with people who have common interests, and making new friends.

That being said, why would you post so many pictures of the cars? Why not post more pictures of the people hanging out having a good time? This in no way means that I'm putting down anyone for their car, but that the post was pictures of mostly cars, and people are unhappy with any criticism of them. Anyone who has been around here very long knows that you will always get positive and negative comments of pictures. It's just going to happen. Thank people for their positives, and let the negatives roll off your back without getting personal.

i for one think its great you guys out west actually got that many cars together. take it from someone that lives where the scene is also scarce... its not easy to gather up people and cars for a meet. so for that you get my respect.

color me lost but why were there people ragging on how dirty wojo's car was? did you not scroll down and see the after effects of him cleaning it? it was BEAUTIFUL. come on now, theres no way you saw those pictures...

sure there are some things that could use some attention on the cars but rome wasnt built in a day. im sure they are well aware of the things that need fixing.

is the red sunfire kardain's car? if so where are the freaking shots of the damn 3400 swap?! and what spoiler is that? i actually like it..

and scorpio... dont you have an irs swap?

Quicklilcav- honest reason theres no pictures of people in this thread is because i had not time to take anymore pics when we got to our destination. i had to build rob a new motor mount for kardain

Brad- thanks for the compliments man. and yes. the red fire is Kardain's (Robs) and there werent any photos cause nobody had there hoods up long enough to take piks. i think he may have piks in another thread on another forum. not really to sure. and as for Scorpio1 having an IRS swap im sure he wishes but nope. no swap lol.

Please explain. I know it's off topic, but Rob has one of my upper V6 mounts, and I'd like to know if there is an issue.





Re: MT NWGME Bash 09

I believe it was for the lower mount. Not sure though.
