If the fasteners that go through the unibody all look ok and are not super crusty, it's probably fine. Rotors always rust, it's just their nature.

They're forecasting a highs of -22 lows of -30 this time next week. I don't use my truck all that much, and when i went to use it the other night at ~15 the diesel was jello, i should probably deal with that.

Was +1 for a bit today. Just warm enough to thaw my summer wiper fluid in my pickup drove down the road just spraying it until empty. I'm at some intersection and 2 Tim Hortons drinking twinks are looking at me because the wipers are going flat out as I spray the window for the entire length of the red light while giving them the 1000 yard stare.

Give 'em a smoke show next time. Doing burnouts in front of a Timmies is a time honoured Canadian tradition.

That's pretty damning, even if only half of it is true. The principal/management of that dealership should be spending some time in jail, but won't be I'm sure.

I sort of like the idea of it, but it's going to be interesting to see how they price it. It has to be high enough to pay the bills and scare away the 18 year old riced out beyond.ca demographic, but not too high to scare away the 30+ year olds that would probably get the most of it and I assume also geared towards. Also, keeping cars overnight without the luxury of a garage/secured parking is going to be interesting. Even if it's proven elsewhere, somehow it will get hosed up in Calgary.

Looks like a good start. I'm on my phone but it looks like an air cooled 911, Some Kind Of Ferrari and a Lancia Delta Integrale HF (Evo?). That should run about $160k, right? So 12 more cars for $840k? What would you guys add? I'd say an NSX, Alfa Romeo GTV, E30 M3 should cover the basics before you get into esoteric stuff. slidebite posted:Even if it's proven elsewhere, somehow it will get hosed up in Calgary.

Need a 911 turbo of some sort. 996 or 997 would work. It's the unloved redheaded stepchild, but I would love a 348. Maybe an Esprit?

Yeah, I was going to say an Esprit as well. I'm not sure what kind of collection they're aiming for, but it seems like he's planning on letting the membership guide it. Edit: yep, apparently that's an Evo. Seems like a rad car but the owner doesn't exactly ooze charisma. https://youtu.be/X7y_QLShVak DrakeriderCa fucked around with this message at 08:59 on Dec 8, 2016 |

slidebite posted:Maybe an Esprit? Beautiful car. There's an old episode of Fifth Gear, the knockoff Top Gear replica, that shows the work they put in to getting an Espirit to break 200 mph. If I remember correctly, they didn't have to swap the engine but they did add a bunch of go-fast bits like a big turbo and significant changes to the transmission and differential.

Thought you guys might be interested in this post from the chat thread.slidebite posted:Coincidentally I tried something this morning. We've been in a bit of a cold snap here with nights getting down to the -20 to -25C range. I used to park the Taco in the garage but because of Porsche resting in there, it's outside but I am using the factory block heater. I took a few pics with my thermal camera before I started it up just to see how effective it was.

My block heater is 1500 watts and makes poo poo nice and toasty when i'm not too lazy to go out and plug it in an hour before i leave. It doesn't seem absolutely necessary though, 0-40 synthetic in a 7.3 and it would probably start at the north pole. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rWDRTnkXwo4 I heard it snowed in vancouver last night, and haven't heard from anybody i know there, so it's safe to assume everybody's dead.

Apparently it's going to be so balls-stuck-to-leg cold tomorrow, michener allen isn't starting anything, and is selling all the vehicles by photo only. Could be some deals on something that may or may not start. I went to one in december a few years ago, and there were some serious shitboxes that they actually got running in -40*c. The car i went there for didn't, so they didn't sell it. If i would have known, i would have just bought the eagle wagon that was up first that they couldn't even get $50 for.
