Sorry for bringing up a zombie thread, but... It's been a looooong time, but I left my 2003 behind on Oahu---traded it in at the Pontiac dealership by the airport for a 2005 Bonneville GXP. Last three of the VIN was 008 (think it might have been 617008, or something like that). I last saw it...

Saw this thread and thought I'd post too...has anybody seen my old Hulk? Sequence number on the vin was 617008...I think. I remember the "008" part. Last seen in Honolulu, pulling into the downtown Walmart parking garage...

Y'know, this has been buggin' me for a few days now...so I started working a bit of research. It looks like MSNBC took a small story and blew it into a big something else. There was a story on one of the miscellaneous car forums around the 'net that said that under the restructuring plan...

Yeah...I strongly suspect this is MSNBC's lame attempt to "wag the dog". I checked with my servicing dealership, and they were rather surprised to hear about it...for a supposedly "dead" brand, nobody seems to know they're dead. I can see them being drawn down, which they sorta are already...

Dunno if anybody else is thinking this, but...Hennessey again? I'm kinda surprised that the guy's still in business after that all-too-public meltdown on the various Mopar forum sites a couple years back...I'd be extra-ordinarily suspicious of anything put out by him after that. Love that...

Huh...that's kinda neat. :up: From the pics, I could make out the rounded fenders, which suggested the semi-"boat-tail" look of der Beetlebaumer. I've heard of some truly unnatural things being done to Beetles...somewhere out there on the net are the plans for a 350 conversion, tho I don't...

I'll try my hand at wackiest possibility...454-powered VW Beetle...

That's pretty bad, but it still doesn't beat the record I've seen... Mike Mackenna Ford on the north side of Oahu, Hawaii; SVT dealer. Had a Heritage-painted Ford GT on the showroom floor with a markup---no kidding, and hang on to your hat---of $115,000. That's right---$115,000. Total...

Did this jump out at anybody else? And then the last sentence... Am I missing something? That first part doesn't allege the officer fired the shot, doesn't say the officer possibly fired a shot...it says he fired a shot. Definitely. Now, I don't have any objections---quite frankly, I...

Sorry about the huge pics...didn't mean to fill up the screen...:o

This is really sad to see... ...although...I wonder just how many of those hulks could actually be saved. I've been in Rhode Island before; the climate up there isn't exactly conducive to prolonging the life of a car (as opposed to, say, Arizona, which is dry enough to mummify a vehicle and...

Actually, it's TripleTransAm. He's over at the Dodge Charger Forums now...got a Tor-Red Daytona a few years back, and seems very happy with it.

Costco pumps in STL South County: $1.33 for regular, $1.47 for premium as of this last week.

No DTRMikey, it wasn't a mistake to elect a black man to office. It was a mistake to elect a black Democrat from Chicago, who has allied himself with the Muslim Nation, who has pointedly and repeatedly told us how he's going to leave this country helpless and prostrate in the face of the...

I feel rather bad, not being able to get out and finally meet all these people that I've (infrequently) corresponded with over the years. But my job schedule just wouldn't leave room for it, and I got bills to pay and a wife/baby to feed... I want to extend a special thanks to YoVic for the...
