So I'm driving through town in the early afternoon. Roads got a center turn lane and 2 lanes going in either direction. Not alot of traffic. I'm doing 45 in a 35 already in the inside lane...with clear road ahead...this old beater long bed 63 GMC pickup with an antique aluminum camper shell pulls out of the local u pump it station and putts on down the road on the outside lane next to me, a real beater looking old farm truck with big old mudder tires..then outta the parking lot from across the road these kids in a 70's chevelle come burning rubber and cut right in front of me..they fly up to the light and stop as it is now red. The old blue truck pulls up on the outside lane at the light.. so I ease up behind the chevelle and they are gunning the gas and doing the brake start thing.. This old scraggly lookin guy with a half burnt cigar looks out the drivers window of the truck and gives them a mean *** look then chewws on his cigar...

SO we wait...I figure what the hell if I get a break around the old guy I'll see if the cummins turbo diesel will spank them.

The light changes green and the guy in the Chevelle nails it. all I heard was tires screaming and something reving to the high end of hell...All I saw was tire smoke.. from the guy in the old blue GMC truck..christ he laid down probably 50 feet of smokin tire rubber, with a little missed patch when he shifted gears... he was gone... he smoked the chevelle like it was sitting still...scared the crap outta the guys in the Chevelle, the driver almost ran head on into someone making a turn in the center lane...hell I'm still at the light with my mouth open...WTF

So I pop over into the outside lane and chase down this old guy...he turns into a local old time repair shop...

After a few minutes of talking with the old guy he finally lets on that the 63 GMC 3/4 ton has a twin carb 409, ...with a borg-warner close ratio 4 speed and a 14 bolt full floater limited slip with 4.10 gears. 30x10.5x16.5 tires..It's his shop truck...got a piece of 3 inch concrete filled heavy wall pipe as a back bumper..

whats that old saying about judging a book by it's cover...

 

Nice nice....I think thats the first story I have laughed at in a long time....I had it all pictured in my head and it was hilarious the way you explained it...I bet the kids in the chevelle was like "WTF does that thing have in it???!!!!!??? lol....priceless priceless....i hope that happens to me when i get old

 

haha...thats funny ****

Someday I want to get a bone stock cutlass crusier...woody style, stock everything...except put a badass engine in that and have myself a sweet sleeper
