Car Forum / Ford / Ford Mustang / March 2005CobraJet's vs GT40Patrick's
The little GT40 head comparision thread got me thinking. As much as CJ hates my guts and I can't stand his stuck in the past attitude, automotively, I think we're quite similar. So I started thinking about what we have in common. I don't have a lot of time tonight to post, so I'm only throwing out a few ideas. But first, here's what we won't discuss in this thread: 12-second muscle cars and how classics compare to late models. With that said, let's find similiarities. Over the years here are some things I think we both like or prefer: Station wagons Sleepers Large displacement Normally aspirated Strippers Tweaked, but factory appearing Straight-line cars CJ, so far so good? (Agree damn it... just say yes and nod your head. Let's get out of the blocks and lay down the first 60-feet without wheel-hopping or spining the tires.) Can you think of anything else we disagree about? And what else do you think we agree on? Patrick '93 Cobra > The little GT40 head comparision thread got me thinking.

And what else do you > think we agree on? Did you see the news story John URL'd comparing mechanics to technicians? This is the essential difference between you and me. I'm a gearhead, you belong to the plug-and-play group. The attitude *you* call "stuck in the past", is referred to as "nostalgia" by the vast majority of car-minded 40+ year-olds. The fact that you name C&D as your fave shows me you would never consider an all-out buildup of anything yourself. So it really goes back to the apples and oranges thing. You are trying to find a common ground to ease things a bit; I say it really doesn't matter. Why? Because I *own* several of every vehicle you have in that list above, and you own a '93 Cobra. I get greasy; you pay lip service. Apples and oranges. Next week, if it doesn't rain anymore, I'll post pics of my Ranger's engine to show you what I enjoy farting around with. > Patrick > '93 Cobra  SignatureCobraJet Thunder Snake #1 >> The little GT40 head comparision thread got me thinking.

Not sure if my old body will get me there, but we'll find out. (Any runners in this NG?) For those not in to running, or can't run, walking is a good substitute. The main thing is just being active.

No, what I wrote is that Patrick has a better claim to "been there done that" than you do. Emphasis on the "doing," not the "knowing." I don't know where the newbies are getting their info, but it doesn't match what I've been reading in these groups the past four years. 180 Out > <one80out@hotmail.com> wrote: > > [quoted text clipped - 21 lines] > > 180 Out OK, fair enough. Perhaps you'd like to do the following, as long as you're stuck in a dead-end data-entry cubicle job after failing miserably as a lawyer: 1) Show us all the engines, drivetrains, and automotive electronics Patrick has worked on since he was born. Plug and oil changes don't count. 2) Show us all the engines, drivetrains, and automotive electronics that I have worked on since born. Also, explain how what you've seen in the last four years tells you about my life experiences offline. Alternately, you can give us the name of the crystal ball maker that you and Patrick buy from. 3) Google up the thousands of RAMFM posts I've had since '98, extract the flame-based content, and figure out who, besides Bill S., has flung more classic tech into this group than I. 4) Consult your crystal ball and see why I don't care.

Perhaps you'd like to do the following, > as long as you're stuck in a dead-end data-entry cubicle > job after failing miserably as a lawyer: I don't know where that came from, but it's a lie. What would you know about jobs, anyway? When is the last time you held one? My guess is you're either living on the dole, most likely on a faked-up SSI disability, or you told a stack of lies to some plaintiff's lawyer and scored a six figure payday somewhere along the way. As for the rest, I've seen that "crystal ball" line of yours often enough for it to peg MY bullshit meter. You spend half your free time -- which is to say half your time, period! -- typing up your automotive exploits on the Usenet, but whenever you're called on anything you hide behind this dodge, that you have this hush-hush secret life where you do all the reeeally cool stuff. And all this "I was there in the day" crap. What a joke. Four years reading your posts and I've never read a single post about you actually working on an on-topic car, or even driving one. Let alone racing one. Plenty about lead-butting it around in an ex-cop Crown Vic, but never a word from the real world about anything on-topic. Just a lot of second hand info from magazines and from web searches. So, after four years of this same-old, here's what I know: Starting with the often-mentioned CJ car collection, here's the inventory, from a Sept 2004 thread: '63 Galaxie Country Sedan Wagon - 390 '64 Monterey Marauder - 390 '64 Fairlane 500 Ranch Wagon '65 Olds Starfire - 425 '65 Galaxie 500 '65 Comet 404 '66 Mercury Colony Park Wagon - 410 '67 Mercury Commuter Wagon '67 Cougar - 289 '67 Cyclone GT Convertible - 390GT '68 Olds 4-4-2 - 400 '68 Torino GT - 390GT '68 Mustang GT/California Special - 289 '69 Plymouth Satellite - 383HP - 4 spd - 4 dr '69 Mustang Coupe - 302 '69 Cougar XR7 428 Cobra Jet '69 Cyclone CJ 428 Cobra Jet '69 Fairlane 428 Cobra Jet Automatic '69 Fairlane 428 Cobra Jet Stick '70 Cyclone Spoiler 429 Cobra Jet '70 Torino GT - 351C '70 Torino Brougham 351C '70 Plymouth Road Runner - 440HP '72 F-250 Camper Special '73 Mustang - engineless '73 F-100 Ranger XLT - built 460 '76 E-250 Econoline - 351W '86 Cougar - 232 '97 Crown Vic Police Interceptor '?? Toyota Celica - parting out There might be an '82 Accord in there too. Only the '64 Fairlane wagon, the '70 Torino Brougham, the '73 F-100, and the Crown Victoria were running as of Sept '04. The F-100 and the Torino were recent purchases at that time, but the engine has since been pulled from the pickup to go into the Torino, so I guess the F-100 is not running anymore, either. The others are in storage. None of them is ever driven or worked on. 30 cars. Way more projects than you can ever hope to handle. You could pass them along to someone who would bring them back to life. But then what would happen to the myth of CJ? So all these cool old cars just sit and rot. As far as you being there "in the day," you turned 16 in about 1972, meaning for example that you were about 5 years old when the 427 FE came out, and about 14 when the last 428 Cobra Jet rolled off the line. At some point in the mid-70's you bought the above-mentioned '68 289 GT/CS, and that was the beginning -- and possibly the end -- of your actual real-world experience. You might even have street raced it a couple times. How many actual races? Who knows? 20 per year, for two or three years? All of them between 25 and 30 years ago. Any trips down a real drag strip? You've mentioned ET's, so I guess you must have run a few laps. I'm guessing not very many. I know during this period you installed one engine in the GT/CS, so maybe you built it too. That makes one engine you've built. At some point in the late '70's to mid-'80's, you moved from L.A. to Phoenix, leaving the by-then broken down GT/CS behind in Cali. You owned a car stereo shop. And THAT'S where your question about "all the automotive electronics" comes from -- car stereos and car alarms. Yeah, I'm guessing you've got everybody in the NG beat on that kind of work, by a factor of ten. Should we be impressed? During the stereo shop era the Fox-body '86 3.8 Cougar was your driver. I'm guessing it was also during this period that you began collecting all the old iron. Some of the oldies must have filled the gap as drivers, between the defunct GT/CS and the '86 Cougar. Maybe you raced some of them, but I have never read a post saying so. Most of them, and eventually all of them, just sat baking in the sun. In the late '90's the '86 Cougar gave way to an '82 Accord. The Honda was your driver from the beginning of your Usenet career until a couple years ago, when you switched to the ex-cop '97 Crown Victoria. So as far as I can tell the engine swap from the F-100 into the Torino is the first time since the late '70's or early '80's that you're actually working on a car. And during that time your REAL bad rides have been a six-cyl Cougar, a four-cyl Honda, and a 281 ci two ton taxicab. BBA all the way, baby. As for NoOp Patrick, in a February 1999 post he says he has owned these cars: '68 383 Super Bee '68 318 Dodge pickup '67 283 Impala '68 289 Comet '76 360 Dodge pickup '73 VW Vanagon '87 5.0 Mustang LX - first new car '95 Accord EX '93 Cobra The '93 Cobra was a recent acquisition as of Feb '99. Patrick also wrote this: "I grew up near Detroit and my two older brothers were car crazy. They owned a '69 and '72 Chevelle, '74 Javelin, '68 Mustang fastback, and a '69 Cougar XR7 convertible." Put it all together and you'd have to say that Patrick has as much or more hands-on experience with carbureted V8 iron as he has with the EFI stuff. Patrick took a car to the dragstrip for the first time in 1988, the car being his '87 5.0. As of Sept '99 he could say he'd gone about 4-5 times per year since then. I don't think he's been back much since '99. This is because he's a career non-commissioned officer in the Air Force. Since I've been reading the NG, I know the USAF sent him from Albuquerque to Turkey for a couple years, then to Florida. Between 1988 and today he's also raised two kids to college age. He sold the '87 5.0 in 1999. He still has the Cobra, and also has a Fox-body LTD. If you squint real hard, you might recognize these activities as "real life." Also sometimes referred to as "pulling your own weight"; living for something other than your own self-gratification. I mean, here you are, nearly 50 years of age, and your only responsibility in life is to keep a bag of cat food in the house. So you don't care what anyone's "crystal ball" says, you've got all these secret projects going on that you never write about. It's so much more interesting to type that 100th reference to Arrogant Bastard Ale or tell us about the glories of driving an ex cop car on the freeway, than actually sharing a real life on-topic activity. That's what we're supposed to believe, anyway. Sorry, I've been seeing the same sh.t for four years. Now for the first time in all those years you've actually got a project going, and boy the attitude we're all seeing now. For the first time in 20 years you're actually getting that black crud under your fingernails, familiar to all of us who actually work on our cars, and the rest of us better stand back. Super Cobra Jet, the guy who's "been there, done it several times, got the t-shirts, and has modified the t-shirts to fit better." All the time you know it's not true, and you let guys like John here believe it anyway. 180 Out > Cobra Jet wrote: > > > OK, fair enough.

I snap my fingers and cubicle boy does the work! At least you got the car list right. The rest you get a D on. Not for effort, but for thinking that *anyone* relates his entire life to Usenet. I've never seen a single person write a detailed biography here. Have you?

Hot damn, snap my fingers and the same old Cobra Jet blah blah blah spews forth. Try to change the focus to the opponent's personal character, put him on the "defensive," pretend it'd be too much trouble to rebut the charges and that the rebuttals would be knocked down anyway. Par for the course. The truth is what it is. I say the truth is that, about 35 years ago, you dabbled in street racing for a brief while with a *snicker* 289 Mustang. Probably living at home with Mommy and Daddy and pretending to go to college. At some point you dropped out of college and moved to Arizona and opened a car stereo shop. Along the way you acquired a bunch of '60's cars, some of which had the ability to move under their own power. Thanks to your stewardship, none of them do now. Along the way you ran a few laps at the dragstrip. But you have not done so for years, possibly decades. At some point the stereo shop went bust, and you haven't held regular job since then. This is possible only if you're living on SSI, a personal injury award, or some other method of sucking on somebody else's tit. Now you're nearly 50, living with 20-30 cats in some marginally habitable hut in the Arizona desert. Oh yeah, and about five months ago you started an actual automotive project, your first one in years, possibly decades. 180 Out > Hot damn! I snap my fingers and cubicle boy does the work!

Par for the course. As I mentioned before, nobody else is writing biographies. Why should I? If people think what I say comes solely from books, then they are as stupid as you and Patrick. I don't answer to the impotent bravado you two have escalated to new heights of absurdity. Of course, I realize it's all a sham. You are as transparent as glass. "Charges"? What a f.cking fantasy world you live in. And you are so rattled you think I'm pulling the truck's engine to put in the Torino. What a dork. > The truth is what it is.

You have more project cars than you have years left driving. The market prices for these cars is high right now. Even if they're in rough shape you could still net a tidy sum. I would pick maybe 3-4 of the good/really special ones from your lot and keep them. All the rest I'd sell, and the proceeds I would take and do a complete resto on those 3 or 4 special ones. I'd rather have 3-4 cherries, than 20+ hulks. Let the young guys bring those others back, you spend some time enjoying/driving a few, if it is only 3 or 4.

His maturity at 19 rivals some adults at 40, I kid you not. My daughter is not as gifted, but what a fighter. Worked her butt off and paid cash for her first car, and has paid nearly every penny of her college so far. She'll earn her associates in June. She's awesome... a beauty inside and out.

Perhaps you'd like to do the following, > as long as you're stuck in a dead-end data-entry cubicle > job after failing miserably as a lawyer: I don't know where that came from, but it's a lie. What would you know about jobs, anyway? When is the last time you held one? My guess is you're either living on the dole, most likely on a faked-up SSI disability, or you told a stack of lies to some plaintiff's lawyer and scored a six figure payday somewhere along the way. As for the rest, I've seen that "crystal ball" line of yours often enough for it to peg MY bullshit meter. You spend half your free time -- which is to say half your time, period! -- typing up your automotive exploits on the Usenet, but whenever you're called on anything you hide behind this dodge, that you have this hush-hush secret life where you do all the reeeally cool stuff. And all this "I was there in the day" crap. What a joke. Four years reading your posts and I've never read a single post about you actually working on an on-topic car, or even driving one. Let alone racing one. Plenty about lead-butting it around in an ex-cop Crown Vic, but never a word from the real world about anything on-topic. Just a lot of second hand info from magazines and from web searches. So, after four years of this same-old, here's what I know: Starting with the often-mentioned CJ car collection, here's the inventory, from a Sept 2004 thread: '63 Galaxie Country Sedan Wagon - 390 '64 Monterey Marauder - 390 '64 Fairlane 500 Ranch Wagon '65 Olds Starfire - 425 '65 Galaxie 500 '65 Comet 404 '66 Mercury Colony Park Wagon - 410 '67 Mercury Commuter Wagon '67 Cougar - 289 '67 Cyclone GT Convertible - 390GT '68 Olds 4-4-2 - 400 '68 Torino GT - 390GT '68 Mustang GT/California Special - 289 '69 Plymouth Satellite - 383HP - 4 spd - 4 dr '69 Mustang Coupe - 302 '69 Cougar XR7 428 Cobra Jet '69 Cyclone CJ 428 Cobra Jet '69 Fairlane 428 Cobra Jet Automatic '69 Fairlane 428 Cobra Jet Stick '70 Cyclone Spoiler 429 Cobra Jet '70 Torino GT - 351C '70 Torino Brougham 351C '70 Plymouth Road Runner - 440HP '72 F-250 Camper Special '73 Mustang - engineless '73 F-100 Ranger XLT - built 460 '76 E-250 Econoline - 351W '86 Cougar - 232 '97 Crown Vic Police Interceptor '?? Toyota Celica - parting out There might be an '82 Accord in there too. Only the '64 Fairlane wagon, the '70 Torino Brougham, the '73 F-100, and the Crown Victoria were running as of Sept '04. The F-100 and the Torino were recent purchases at that time, but the engine has since been pulled from the pickup to go into the Torino, so I guess the F-100 is not running anymore, either. The others are in storage. None of them is ever driven or worked on. 30 cars. Way more projects than you can ever hope to handle. You could pass them along to someone who would bring them back to life. But then what would happen to the myth of CJ? So all these cool old cars just sit and rot. As far as you being there "in the day," you turned 16 in about 1972, meaning for example that you were about 5 years old when the 427 FE came out, and about 14 when the last 428 Cobra Jet rolled off the line. At some point in the mid-70's you bought the above-mentioned '68 289 GT/CS, and that was the beginning -- and possibly the end -- of your actual real-world experience. You might even have street raced it a couple times. How many actual races? Who knows? 20 per year, for two or three years? All of them between 25 and 30 years ago. Any trips down a real drag strip? You've mentioned ET's, so I guess you must have run a few laps. I'm guessing not very many. I know during this period you installed one engine in the GT/CS, so maybe you built it too. That makes one engine you've built. At some point in the late '70's to mid-'80's, you moved from L.A. to Phoenix, leaving the by-then broken down GT/CS behind in Cali. You owned a car stereo shop. And THAT'S where your question about "all the automotive electronics" comes from -- car stereos and car alarms. Yeah, I'm guessing you've got everybody in the NG beat on that kind of work, by a factor of ten. Should we be impressed? During the stereo shop era the Fox-body '86 3.8 Cougar was your driver. I'm guessing it was also during this period that you began collecting all the old iron. Some of the oldies must have filled the gap as drivers, between the defunct GT/CS and the '86 Cougar. Maybe you raced some of them, but I have never read a post saying so. Most of them, and eventually all of them, just sat baking in the sun. In the late '90's the '86 Cougar gave way to an '82 Accord. The Honda was your driver from the beginning of your Usenet career until a couple years ago, when you switched to the ex-cop '97 Crown Victoria. So as far as I can tell the engine swap from the F-100 into the Torino is the first time since the late '70's or early '80's that you're actually working on a car. And during that time your REAL bad rides have been a six-cyl Cougar, a four-cyl Honda, and a 281 ci two ton taxicab. BBA all the way, baby. As for NoOp Patrick, in a February 1999 post he says he has owned these cars: '68 383 Super Bee '68 318 Dodge pickup '67 283 Impala '68 289 Comet '76 360 Dodge pickup '73 VW Vanagon '87 5.0 Mustang LX - first new car '95 Accord EX '93 Cobra The '93 Cobra was a recent acquisition as of Feb '99. Patrick also wrote this: "I grew up near Detroit and my two older brothers were car crazy. They owned a '69 and '72 Chevelle, '74 Javelin, '68 Mustang fastback, and a '69 Cougar XR7 convertible." Put it all together and you'd have to say that Patrick has as much or more hands-on experience with carbureted V8 iron as he has with the EFI stuff. Patrick took a car to the dragstrip for the first time in 1988, the car being his '87 5.0. As of Sept '99 he could say he'd gone about 4-5 times per year since then. I don't think he's been back much since '99. This is because he's a career non-commissioned officer in the Air Force. Since I've been reading the NG, I know the USAF sent him from Albuquerque to Turkey for a couple years, then to Florida. Between 1988 and today he's also raised two kids to college age. He sold the '87 5.0 in 1999. He still has the Cobra, and also has a Fox-body LTD. If you squint real hard, you might recognize these activities as "real life." Also sometimes referred to as "pulling your own weight"; living for something other than your own self-gratification. I mean, here you are, nearly 50 years of age, and your only responsibility in life is to keep a bag of cat food in the house. So you don't care what anyone's "crystal ball" says, you've got all these secret projects going on that you never write about. It's so much more interesting to type that 100th reference to Arrogant Bastard Ale or tell us about the glories of driving an ex cop car on the freeway, than actually sharing a real life on-topic activity. That's what we're supposed to believe, anyway. Sorry, I've been seeing the same sh.t for four years. Now for the first time in all those years you've actually got a project going, and boy the attitude we're all seeing now. For the first time in 20 years you're actually getting that black crud under your fingernails, familiar to all of us who actually work on our cars, and the rest of us better stand back. Super Cobra Jet, the guy who's "been there, done it several times, got the t-shirts, and has modified the t-shirts to fit better." All the time you know it's not true, and you let guys like John here believe it anyway. 180 Out > > > If I may explain the diff. using a cliche: > > > CJ - Been there, done it several times, got the t-shirts, and has > > > modified the t-shirts to fit better. > > > Patrick - Got a picture of one of CJ's t-shirts. > > I don't know where you newer Thundersnakes are getting your info, > > but you've pretty much got that backwards. > Are you trying to convince *anyone* that Patrick knows more about > this stuff than I do? Do I know more than you about this stuff...? What I think is that you have the reference manual from hell, that's what I think. Even with out the manual, I wouldn't doubt you know more about the classic stuff because you live there. Automotively, for you, the world stopped somewhere around '73-'74. So you only need to know about 10 years worth. Study that small amount of information long enough and you _should_ know it upside down and backwards. Myself, on the other hand, was just like you until the '82 GT Mustang made its debut. Then I started gobbling up info on every subsequent model year of car since, plus some foreign, so of course my knowledge on the details of the old stuff is going to be foggy in comparision. Try stuffing about 33 years of automotive info in your brain. And even the 70's stuff I like to read about now, so the 33 years of info is up to nearly 40, and growing. But that's just talking about "knowing". Expirience is something else. Am I claiming, or have I ever claimed to be, a mechanic? No. Am I afraid to get my hands dirty? No. Here's my list of things I've done: replaced starter rebuilt/installed carbs replaced water pumps replaced rocker arms replaced cam/bearings installed U/D pullies installed timing chain installed headers, x & h pipes installed rear gears replaced alternator installed clutch cables/quadrants performed brake jobs - including drum replaced rotors & calipers installed shift kit replaced valve cover gaskets replaced/swapped intake manifolds installed shocks replaced radiators/hoses repacked/replaced wheel bearings replaced a computer installed shifters replaced fenders/doors/hoods stripped paint performed bodywork/paint prep replaced/installed oak bed in pickup replaced/installed throttle body/EGR/TPS sensor/mass-air meter & sensor replaced clutch on an A/C compressor all the tune-up junk (points, plugs, wires ect.) and various sensors Things I haven't done, but would love to. Never pulled heads, got in the bottom end, rebuilt a trans, and have never done a clutch job (Never needed to. My LX's had more than a 100K on its original when I sold the car, and my Cobra's has a 100K on it now and it still has plenty of bite). I'd like to do these four tasks, but so far I haven't needed to. But to be honest, I wouldn't do them right now because my Cobra is my daily driver, that is unless I had a knowledgeable friend looking over my shoulder. So that's it for the "plug-n-play guy". Your turn to step up to the plate, self-proclaimed, "Mr. Gearhead". Patrick '93 Cobra >> If I may explain the diff. using a cliche: >> [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > I don't know where you newer Thundersnakes are getting your info, but > you've pretty much got that backwards. Backwards? That's not my perception. Patrick definitely knows more about this stuff than me, but CJ is on a higher level than that. Could CJ be creating all that information and responses by sitting in front of his Mac with a stack of magazines and books by his side and not having "walked the walk", in essence, creating his CJ persona? I don't think so. Again, my perception.

So far, you've been nothing but talk, which is quickly going to be labeled bullshit if you don't pony up soon. You have a digital camera... here's another to-do list: 1) Let's see pics of all the claimed old car magazines you own. Thousand some pounds, right? We've been hearing you brag about them now for 6-7 years, let's see 'em. 2) Give us some pics of this 20 whatever number of classics of yours. SURELY, a "master mechanic/gearhead" like yourself has to have AT LEAST A FEW of these babies cherried out. (Right, folks?) Show us... and stick your ugly mug in a few of these pics too. 3) You don't even need a camera for this last one. Post your automotive expirience. > and now I get a dropout lawyer and a nurse trying to cast the Fickle > Finger upon me. Yeah, that tends to happen when someone claims and claims and claims and talks and talks and talks, but never produces. And so far in your 8 years of Usenet, you've produced a big goose egg... Z E R O. Cars, magazines, timeslips everything so far has been nothing but talk. I want to see proof of your impressive automotive skills/expirience. I want to see links to stuff that's on the same level as Bill S' stuff. Again, a seasoned mechanic like you HAS to own some impressive looking rides, I'd think. > And that list of Patrick's "achievements" had me laughing for hours > last night. Gosh, what a HARDCORE wrencher! BWAHAHAHA! Dude, the joke is on you, or should I say *is* you. I never claimed to be a "hardcore wrencher", YOU did! (I swear you're losing brain function.) I only listed what I've had expirience with. It was a no BULLSHIT list. I could have lied and trumped up an impressive list, but I didn't. I'm honest. That's all the expirience I have, I make no excuses, nor do I feel bad about it. Now it's your turn. Come on big guy... step up the plate.

You know, I was just standing outside looking at my 460 and waiting for some mechanic to wander over and fiddle with it, when I had a thought. Yes, it *did* hurt. Following your bravery in admitting a homosexual lifestyle, I thought maybe it's best if I own up to not being a mechanic. Not only would I have a huge load off my chest, but I can hang out in this newsgroup without looking to answer anyone's question. I can just hone in on the bullshit posts, and ask my *own* tech questions, since everyone here is more qualified than I. Damn, that *does* feel good! OK, time to go back out and stare at my 460, but I'll be back tonight with some questions. > > > Exactly > > > what experience DO you have? *smooch* *smooch* patrick. > > > > You like Patrick's butt, don't you?

Now what we need to do is get you and Patty and Billy on call around the clock here to answer tech questions. Which shift do you want, Mikey? > -Mike > [quoted text clipped - 76 lines] > > CobraJet > > Thunder Snake #1 SignatureNewbieJet *Fondles CJ's boobies* Had a homosexual urge.

Don't be trying to reach through the screen to touch us straight guys. I'm sure there's enough truck stop action on the Net to satisfy your depraved cravings. > -Mike > [quoted text clipped - 76 lines] > > CobraJet > > Thunder Snake #1 |
