    Quote from WOLF

    Thank you Bill. Right back at ya. Much love brother.


    These new kids just don't know our history. They weren't there on TDS, before the Slingshot was even released. They weren't part of the conversation that began Slingmods, Alpha Powersport and this website. They weren't hoping to get their Slingshot on time to be first to Florida for a Hahn Prototype turbo. They don't know Funinthesun won and had his motor blown. They don't know I was his biggest voiced competition to get there, except he lived there and got his Slingshot a day before me.


    They are still working on getting all the T-shirts that you and I got from being there and doing that. :D

    I thought I was I reading the transcript of a Trump speech about all his accomplishments at first... 8o


    But then I saw who posted it and thought surely not, but it seems you take good motivation from your president. Hopefully you didn't pull a biden and plagiarize 45th and a half while trying to keep Slingshots great.:POKESS:Just kidding.




    I'll step back to the side and continue observing.

    Carry on... :00005129:

  • What was today's Sling project-Mods , goodies....?

    Quote from SoCal

    I installed the new LED lights today on the Canadian inside lights. Question; to those that have done this too, are yours “blueish” as well? I thought the original bulbs perhaps were tinted. But now that I have replaced them with #6000 white LED’s they are still bluish. Is the lens or inside of the light housing perhaps blue?


    At the side angle this is the look



    Straight on they are more white but still a blue tint. Thoughts?

    Those don't look bluish... they look BLUE. I thought you had the blue demon eyes in there when I first saw it. Can you put the bulb in the other housing to see what it looks like?

    I had issues getting the video to play this morning but I assumed from the still that it was maple motors. Yes I do pass by there daily to and from work. As with any car lot I've seen good and bad come from there. So if you were to seriously be interested I would most definitely look in person. I do not know where they get their inventory either but I know they do travel to various car shows looking for deals. As 123hotdog said, they're inventory does seem to move rather quickly so they're good at what they do. As with anything you seem to get what you pay for but they are reasonable in my opinion based on the condition. The immaculate ones can be priced as such but the ones not so perfect don't seem to be priced as if it was perfect if that makes sense.


    As far the people, it's family owned and operated further back than my memory goes. Dad and his son's and any experience I've had have always been great. While I've never personally bought a car from them I have been in there for wheels or other various things and always well taken care of. My wife worked with one of the son's wife for years, great family and good people. Obviously I'm right by them but if I was in the market for a classic car I would definitely start there without hesitation.


    Regardless, if you do get serious, good luck in your venture. Great car...
