FNG with pictures

[HAULNSS]

Hi all,
I'm a new junkie with pictures of my Toy Box to share. I was laid off and was blessed with a baby son before I could finish it, that's why I'm here.

I found this site while looking for floor coating options....cool site!

Here is the specs....
32W x 56L x 14H with water, roughed in restroom with shower, two post lift footings, drain, etc.

Here are some pics....











There sure is a lot of nice stuff on this site. Thanks for all the info!

Nice shop, and you know we're going to ask "What's under the covers?"

I'll take a guess on the right one 57 maybe?

Well, that is an old picture, so what you see is my wife's Z71, the blue cover is my 1995 Impala SS (wanna be road racer with a six speed, Wilwoods, etc), and my old 1994 Z28.


Right now, there is a small fleet in winter storage.
1964 Buick Riviera with 31k original miles(Mine)
1995 Impala SS (My baby) More info here.
1940 Chevy chopped, channeled, sedan delivery - full custom rod (Neighbor's)
1993 Z28 - Road racer (Friend's)
1996 Firehawk convertible (also owns '93 Z28)
1995 Firehawk convertible (Friend's)

I want to take a picture with all the cool rides together.

When you have some extra space, you become popular...like owning a pick up truck on moving day.

Thanks! I like what I have read so far.

Bring it to a road course.

My Impala is just an old tired grocery getter with 286 rwhp and 175k miles on the original, untouched engine. Still turned a 14.1x quarter mile after running all day around a 3.1 mile road course, full weight, street tires, etc. Does your Marauder get 33 mpg?

My friend and his father in law have Marauders. I'll take Silver Birch with a Trilogy anyday.

33mpg i guess since you brought it up yours does i am not even close mayby 22 at best but i do not baby it. Mine is Silver with dark charcole int most of them have the light gray and is almost stock chipped it and did some tuning puts out 320 hp just about 20 over stock. I do have a line on a wrecked 03 kenny brown Marauder S hit hard in back that i may swap over all the goodies to my MM. looked into a Trilogy nice set up but man that is a high doller set up but who ever said going fast was cheep!

I did actually get 33+ miles per gallon with the cruise set at 78 mph while traveling to an event at Mid America Motorplex in Iowa. The car will normally get low 20's in town and mid 20's with more highway driving. I drive it very hard...almost rental like. Gotta love the six speed and 4.10's! (Sixth gear @ 75 mph is about 2000 rpm)

The next tank was 4.8 mpg while on the track. I check and record every tank to see if new mods change anything and to watch for maintenance stuff, etc. Yeah...a little over the top, probably.

I heard that the Marauders liked the gears, tune and driveshaft right away? It is supposed to be the 'first mods' that make the car come alive. (Similar to the Impala)

Nice color!

Randy,

I've seen the local Impala SS guys run at WATERFORD HILLS and I must admit I was surprised at how well those hopped-up taxicabs got around the course
Having the manual trans would have solved their biggest problem, which was the long spool-up during downshifts after getting back on the gas at the exit of a turn.
That, and keeping the brakes from roasting

Still, it looked like a ton (or 2 ;-) of fun!
