I have a weak spot for all these cars. There's not many around anymore so its always nice to see if any are still around. SVO's, Capri's, XR4ti's, GN's, Turbo Coupes, GTA's etc.

I'll start:

Yeah there's a turbo in there someplace. A tiny one but its there.

That car is nice and looks like it gets DRIVEN!

OK, I'll bite. Here's my GLH. Perpetual mods and hoping to get it to the strip soon. I might even take it to Waterford Hill someday. Never tried the twisty stuff.

Also here's my proposed paint scheme once it's running good. I had to pick Panther Pink to tweak the Mopar guys. Plus for the Ricers pink means fast
! LOL

Wow... that thing looks clean. No RUST!! Very nice. And even the pink doesn't look bad.

That trailer is tits too. I'd like to get like that for myself someday.

I'm diggin the pink with the adapted bill board stripe for the GLH. Cool idea and it looks much better than it sounds.

Thanks! I'd really like to do it. Panther Pink is a pretty cool color in person. More like a bright Magenta than real pink. The big type graphics are old school plus funny because it's such a little engine. I want to get it running well first then I WILL paint it.
 
Lol... you sound like me with Conquests. I have 3 as well. 1 runs, the other I'm trying to get running and the last one keeps the other 2 alive.

The white car is gone, it had almost a complete car inside of it when I bought it. I reassembled the interior and got it running good, made it mechanically quite sound and then sold it. The black car is almost completely parted out and the shell is in my driveway about to go to scrap, I bought for $1000 and put 100k on it daily driver for 4 yrs. The silver one I am working on now, converted to T5 trans, and got it running pretty good, most of the good parts from the black car are on this now. The body was good on it, the rest was shit so I've been working on it for about 1 yr now. Should be driving it soon....

The GLH's were(and still are)very cool little cars! I seem to remember one running at Milan in the high 12's back in the day. Come to think of it, wasn't there also a Dodge minivan with a turbo'ed motor running pretty quick too? That was a money maker!
