Title: What do the HTC staff drive ?
Post by: TOMCAT21 on May 19, 2011, 12:49:23 PM
I am just curious what the HTC staff drives as far as vehicles go. Does Skuzzy drive an AMC Gremlin ? Does Hitech drive a minicooper ?

I have a Mini Cooper, a Lexus IS250 (my old car, the Wife drives now), and coming soon......a Cobra.  The Cobra and the Mini will be my main rides.

I am going to put a bumper sticker on the Cobra, as follows:

"Don't laugh, my other car is a Mini". :D

I will be building it.  Starts with a kit from Lone Star Classics.  I will be doing a bit of custom fabrication for some things to fit me better.

Light sport only (so far)   :cry

Waiting for the 4-place

So far the price tag is ~ $200,000 - $300,000

It is a bit gimmicky, but handy if you aren't IFR certed, hit bad weather or there is no vehicle service available.  Just land the damn thing and keep heading to your destination.

Lone Star has a very nice fitting kit.  You are going with the 427, cool.  Couple friends of mine drove a built 427 then downgraded to a 351, sissies  :D  Dang car is an engine with a saddle, nothing more.  What fun!  Congrats.

My all-time favorite. Blue with white stripes? Are you going big-block or are you staying sane? Ford 9"? And does "period correct" mean Halibrands?

Excellent choice with Lone Star. The body material is a good choice, chemically-speaking.  :aok

Speaking of an engine with a saddle, I rode (badly) a bike with a 5.0 ford small block powering it today.

Yeah, I don't quite understand people that don't wear gear, much less a freakin helmet.

I fell off the back of my dirtbike on rough asphalt a long time ago. Didn't feel very good. And I ruined my Red Sox sweatshirt.  :mad:
