New Zealanders... you got to love them...

First I brought you the Jet powered beer cooler: http://www.asciimation.co.nz/beer/

Now I bring you the home made cruise missile project: http://www.interestingprojects.com/cruisemissile/ - "A DIY Cruise Missile - watch me build one for under $NZ5,000 ($A4,430)"

Some people really have too much spare time...

haha... naa... im not going to build a missile.. but I have a jet project in the process... its one of those damn adictive things. When you hear a jet engine running... you get addicted, just like the lambo and ferrari sounds... Im not even going to put my jet engine in a plane.. im just doing it for the fun of hearing the sound.. BTW thats not my site or page..

@DR. GONZO. i go every once in a while to the street races, not lately tho. i have a couple of pending tickets so i gotta lay low for a couple of months otherwise my insurance will sky-rocket on me. i used to cruise out to the valley for the races but the ricers ruined it doin stupid shit all the time.

as for my Nova. its a 63. i put a 355 in it with a decent amount of power, it could use more tho, they can always use more. i posted some pics of it on here somewhere, ill look for them. i havent had a chance to dyno it or take it to the track with the 355 in it, theyve been limiting the amount of street legals at the near-by strips. it needs a stronger rear end with some better gearing too. its pretty quick tho, i surprise myself a lot in it beating cars i didnt think i would be able too.

what are you gonna put in the merc? i like those ws6 firebirds, ive seen some really fast ones, he done any mods?

EDIT: found them....its at the bottom of the page

nice, those sound like some good cars. one of my roomates has a 75 280 hes boring out the motor to a 3.1 and he wants to put a turbo on it. ive always wanted a 510 too, in fact i almost bought one a week or two ago, it had no engine or tranny, i wanna drop a LS1 in it and make it a road race car. be sure to take pics when your buds finish, thats a hell of a collection!

heres some pics:
