Car Forum / Ford / Ford Falcon / August 2003Speechless
OK, I never totally understand, but I am fairly tolerant of rice mobiles and certainly don't understand their logic, but some vehicles look generally OK. Today I just saw something that left me totally speechless. Totally speechless. Underneath was an innocent XD falcon GL. Off-white in colour. OK so a typical ricer might take a EVO badge and stick it on a stock lancer - this guy decided that he would take the L off the GL and change it to a GS. Funny enough on it own, but the rest it just plain sick. Given the boxy sharp angles of the Blackwood falcons flares for these cars tended to get equally sharp, square flare kits, not this one. I swear these were the roundest fattest flares I had ever seen - would look great on an old VW but they were HUGE. Came out at least half a foot from the body line. That combined with standard wheels and tyres made quite an eye-catching combination. Then there was the front spoiler which looked like it was from a V8 Supercar, and scraping the ground on a flat road. I am still perplexed. Wish I had a digital camera for you, you'd love it. Me, I was embarrassed to be driving a Ford for the first time in my life. SL quite alot of waffling on there for someone who's whithout speech you think thats bad, there's a bloke going around south brisbane (capalaba) in a VB commodore, with a lancer evo spoiler on the boot. that along with primed panels, and turbo sticker on the bootlid and a 'flamey' exhaust (obvious done with like a spark plug or something)... you just gotta laugh me and my mates rocked up in my VL na 6cyl, and asked if it was really a turbo, he says "turbo 202", we're like, 'oooh, giveus a look under the bonnet' and he mumbles some sh.t about bonnet latch is f.cked. we laughed and drove off. add to that we (mates) mentioned i had a r31 passage gt at home currently unregod and was turbo, and he didnt beleive us. a few nights later we rocked up at capalaba maccas with it and yelled at him "nice turbo ... chuckle", and he said something similar, but at least he realised ours was turbo after hearing the wastegate let off in front of him. he just steped back and ... i suppose... sulk in a way, told i guess :) no idea some people > OK, I never totally understand, but I am fairly tolerant of rice mobiles and > certainly [quoted text clipped - 27 lines] > > SL <snip> > Then there was the front spoiler which looked like it was from a V8 > Supercar, and scraping [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > > SL I saw an XD with a Supra hoop spoiler a couple of days ago.

Yes, it's time guys, to come out and admit to the silly things you've done to cars in your youth. I remember my first car, a Datto 1600, that lost it's rubber gear stick boot. For about 4 months it was replaced by a condom stretched over the last bit of the original boot... Mum hated that car. Cheers Steve <snip> > Me, I was embarrassed to be driving a Ford for the first time in my life. Oh come on - surely not ;-p SignatureCatharticF1 "Memory is a stranger, History is for fools" |
