Honestly I love this car but I'll never buy one that's mostly original again. I want a basket case car so I do crazy things like drop an LS3 or an LTsomething in it. But I couldn't bring myself to replace the original 327 unless I actually had to.

Two Finger promises to only gently caress a couple of fat girls in it. They're going to be really fat so it'll do as much damage as 4 would normally.

One of the funniest things I have seen was someone managed to stuff a 350 crate engine into an MGB.

Also saw a 70 Challenger with a Viper engine in it.

A guy I know with more Corvettes than friends did this. Shoved as much crap from one of his Z06's into a 67 as possible. Biggest problem is tire size, you just can't get large enough rear tires on there to deal with the power. Its a nifty, albeit useless car.

Also, in dad news, after the little guy passed out lastnight the little lady put on Blues Brothers because she wanted to watch a movie about music and hadn't seen it before. She ended up loving it, now I gotta start ring shopping I guess

Good call. I never noticed some of the cameos before lastnight though. Frank Oz is the prison guard who gives Jake back all his poo poo when he's released. Steven Spielberg is the guy at the county records office who shows up late and gives them the tax receipt, Joe Walsh is the prison inmate who starts the riot at the end. All in all it's one of those great movies that always surprises you with an extra detail when you rewatch it

Yeah, I'm in the same boat as you, Goodman is a good singer and it allowed Tom Petty and Clapton to be in a Blues Brothers movie like they both deserved so I can't knock it. I think the mistake they made was trying to upstage the original movie instead of writing a love letter to Belushi and the magic of the first one.

They did some promo stuff with him for the movie including the Super Bowl halftime show, luckily Goodman and Akyroyd had much stronger voices and drowned him out

It's a fun movie. It really doesn't fit any mold of film, it has music but isn't a musical, it has action but isn't an action film, I guess comedy is the closest definition I can think of, but it's super deadpan and can be very subtle at times. It's well worth watching if you like old school SNL humor, blues music and/or outlandish car chases
