My idea of a Shelby Ranger if there would have been one.


I totally agree man!! Any car/truck with those damn "dub" type rims look ****ing stupid!!! And dont get me started on the spinner crap!! I DO have 22.5 wheels on my work truck though-its an International 4300 beverage truck-like the ones that deliver beer! and soda!! Excep I deliver bottled water in mine!!

X2! MMMMM BEEERRRR err aaaahhh Bottled Water!
 
What really kills me is seeing a 4x4 with "dubs". There are a few cherokee's, to name a FEW, around here with low profile/big rims (looks like a freakin garbage bag wrapped around a wheel).

Also there is a beautiful 87 Grand National around the corner from my Mom's house, he has 20's. Completely ruined the car :(

Anymore updates on the "Shelby"? Have you picked up an o2 for that Bad Lad?

There was a Hummer H2 at a car show in Omaha that was on 32's or 34's, it looked really, really stupid.

The sad thing is, on top of buying an H2 and putting TV's all over it (even had one in the hood) he said he spent $25k for the tires and wheels, mounted and balanced.
 
I forgot I do have a vehicle that does have 27's in it, dang forgot all about it.

Man I can't believe someone would do that to a GNX... Sad!
Nah I haven't had a chance to pick one up... Working on it I have neglected things around the house so... trying to get caught back up..

Seems people have more money than sense these days... Thay is just crazy..
25K would be enough to complete my Ranger Limo idea!! and then some...
 
Oh Great !!! I'm not the only OLD FART Schwinn nerd!

The guy at the bike shop placed around the late 70's, someone on here also placed it around the late 70's because of the paint color, the bike has never had a repaint, I did have the bearings changed when I had it checked out when I bought it about 5 years ago, I also have a Schwinn speedo that came with it, BUT I have to find a new cable for it.

I gave 25.00 for it, and would have bought the ladies one also, but didn't have the money at the time.

You got one hell of a deal my friend! She looks really good for the age!
 
Multi- when I lived in St.Louis MO city a few years back I would see all types of cars like that GNX, Monte Carlo SS etc. all freakin jacked up w/ them fugly rims on em!! What a waste of a good car!! I really don't care for GM products but I would love to have an 83-88 Monte Carlo SS w/ a Vette LS1 & a T-56- 6 speed in it!! Done up TASTEFULLY of course!! T- tops jet black like the SHELBY ranger!!!!

Damn people know how to mess a good thing...I'm not a fan of GM cars either but yeah the GNX and MC SS were some sweet rides!! I liked the black and gold IROCs too!! IMO GM had the better looking pick of cars back in the day. .. Seems Ford only had the Mustang GT and Escort GT that were smooth at least to a teen in school... I think Ford has finally out done GM with the smoothness of their line up.. I just hope they don't eff up the Ranger like Chevy did the S10 switch to a Colorado... That thing is just EFFIN UGLY.. Looks like a Toyota reject.... I don't how one could be made to look smooth as a street version... Not even sure one could look that great on a 4X4 configuration... Oh here is a tad of info I remember reading about the 1986 GNX from Motor Trend.. (I was 16 at the time) The GNX was the fastest American production car ever.. However a freightliner Rig with a certain gear ratio and a I think a Caterpillar 3408 Turbo diesel engine would smoke it on top end!
How's that for Truckin!!!???
 
Well I hate to be a combo breaker but did you get any more info on getting the plate up here?

Hopefully you get your issues resolved man!
