what we have been up to the last few weeks

[Zivic]

Updated pics of the '56 olds:
Got the trim on, and came across a decent set of wheels on craigs last night!

I am a farmer, and that usually means 24/7 work... well, we have had a lot of rain and we have been unable to get into the fields so I took the opportunity to get some projects done.

knocked out my stereo install on my evo.

Rainbow Vanadium 2-ways
JL W3V3 in Wicked CAS magic box
Alpine CDA-117
Alpine pdx-f4

then found an afternoon to install my wideband in the same car:

all the while, by brother is prepping his beater/driver that he picked up for the back to the 50's car show.
'56 olds 88 sedan.

He let his wife pic the color. Looked OK till he decided to paint the roof white. Now it looks like he has a car built for some vikings fanboy.

OH! That explains the Viking's comment.

BTW, nice herra frush brah

 

[manimal]

omg purple. Wow there must be a big Prince fan out there that is dreaming about that car.


When I imagine a built Z I think of yours bro.

Farmers don't have EVO's! ... judging form the signage, you live in Minnesota?

You are right, loads of rain lately.

this farmer does

I live in cottage grove, couple miles south of highway 61. we had 3" the other night, and another 2" last night.

BTW, nice herra frush brah

9.5" +35 rears, 9.5" +20 fronts.... really not all that aggressive. rears are rolled, but I'm not even running -2 degrees of camber. I guess compared to some setups they are a bit frush

 

[NutBucket]

It was in reference to the Evo, not the Z

 

[Throckmorton]

I thought farmers were supposed to drive musclecars and jacked up pickups... not Lancers and 350Zs

 

[Zivic]

It was in reference to the Evo, not the Z

so was my response.

The Z isn't all that agressive, no rolling at all. 9" +18 fronts with a 265/35 and 10" +22 rear with a 295/35 . very neutral setup in terms of alignment

 

[skyking]

very nice.

I wish I could get an awesome job...... big storms again last night. Only .5" of rain but we didn't need any more. Corn is a bit twisted, but our side of town did well compared to some areas.

Radio is talking upwards of 2" tonight....
