New PHR photo competition

[DarkBuddha]

Got my new issue a few days ago, and thought I'd ask if anyone planned on submitting for the new sub-$25k call for cars? I'd love to, since I'm only into my car for about $15k, but the Mach just won't be done for a while yet... maybe next year.



So, who's got a car bought and built for under $25k they're going to submit?

[69rs]

I'm under $25k but I'm not done. It runs and drives as is though.

It runs quite well. I thumbed a ride from Jim at our Auto-X from Hell and it took both feet and both hands for me to hold on using Jims lap belts. I don't have the numbers but I'll bet Jim had the most improved times of the day.

On the first run, I had to stop and ask for directions! You can only get better from there!

Mine will be about $15k as planned, but I'm only half way there on the dough.

[CarlC]

Did he almost make you Larry?

[69rs]

No way. Smooth as silk. That's the way we do it.

I am under 25K with the malibu, maybe I will have a shot with it. Just need some race ready seats to be finished.

[DarkBuddha]

Wow! I thought' there'd be a few more responses... does this mean building these cars really is that expensive? Gosh, I hope not... I know my Mach won't be half as nice as many of the cars on here, but I can't afford much better either.

Hey Bill, I bet $25k on the Malibu seems cheap after doing the goat... Got some pics?

[Bill Howell]

There are several of it in the threads about the event this past weekend. We will have a video up too with it running shortly.
Yes, it was a "cheap" build compared to the goat, and certainly more in line with my pocketbook. I do not mind running it hard, it is easy enought to find a replacement if I scratch it. Plus, I can not be a Poser all my life.....lol

[69Nova]

I'll probly enter it. My car is under 25 grand. I am going to make a few changes to the car so it will look diffrent this time. And I'm sure me and my buddy will spend more time with the photos.

I'm thinking about it . . .

If only my Camaro had a chance of being anywhere near done. I might look for a nice rod around here that I can snap some pics of.

[Rolling_Thunder]

well my car is nowhere near done nor it is a "pro-touring" car... something about a 68 Dodge Charger not fitting in on the road corse... I only have about $13,000 including the cost of the car...

[tracar91]

I'll probably try it, even though the LS1 is still on the engne stand. I've got $14,000 and counting since I picked up the LS1 ($1900 for engine, harness, ECU, and accessories.....Score! )
