Welcome MrShane - you're gonna like it here.Quote:
and my 77 Camaro.
Wish I had my '78 back :)
Welcome MrShane, the combined expertise on this Forum is amazing, especially for SBC technology. I appreciate the many pictures which are very helpful. Since the PT Cruiser is less familiar to this group maybe you could tell us what mpg you really get?

the knowledge on here and the willingness to help is awesome, it can sure change the perception that the internet is used mostly for porn and junk mail propaganda.
Thank you all, I can see this is going to be a great place.
Don; I avarage about 24-25 mpg. in the PT
The camaro, well that's another story :LOL:
I do, however look forward to the knowledge that the people here have, and what I can gain.
Take Care.

Welcome to CHR, Shane! The PT Cruiser would be a nice car if Chrysler ever gets around to dropping a small V8 in where the 4 sits now.:LOL: :LOL:
The one I drove several years ago hardly had enough power to get out of it's own way.:eek: The Camaro on the other hand never had a problem with insufficient power. Lot of Chevy and Mopar guys here, you should find a lot of people with mutual interest. How about posting some pix of your rides when you get a chance. We old people like looking at photos, easier on the eyes than little tiny text.:LOL:
Drop a hemi in the cruiser! Start a new trend! I like the hemi going into the new challenger. 425hp! Now your talking cruiser(maybe even interceptor!):DQuote:

mopar34, I'll get pics up within the next few days of the PT and the Camaro.

MrShane,
That is interesting about the mpg. I get about 24 mpg with my '98 Pontiac Sunfire convert but it too is definitely not peppy with the little 110 HP four cyl. I had a windstorm drop a tree branch right into the glass rear window and fortunately my insurance covered replacement. It came with a nice tan bottom portion of the cloth mount and I was surprised when I power washed the rest of the top to find that it cleaned up pretty good, amost a matching tan. It does seem like the trend is strongly toward smaller engines for better mileage but maybe muscle cars and hot rods can still be saved for special events in good weather and racing for those who can afford it.

Sorry for the cars being a little dirty, but it's winter time here and I didn't get a chance to wash them.

Both look great, looks like you have a bit of time in the Camaro!!! Nice cars, thanks for the pics!
Welcome camaro looks familiar. Nastyz28???
Thanks for the compliments.
Nope not a Z28, I've had this for about 9 years. It was bought off of my cousin, it oringaly had a 6cyl but was replaced with a 1965 283, that I had reworked :3dSMILE:
