I bet none of you even know me or remember who I am.
Its been a couple years. probably 3 or 4 now. I used to have a 1999 hyundai accent GL, didn't do much with it, just a sound system that'd kick your ass to high hell and back.
I miss the hyundai. I wrecked it by flipping it due to hydroplaning going down a hill and into a ditch. Needless to say, the Hyundai had barely a dent in the roof; well, barely in a sense of relative measuring.. about 4 inches of a frontal roof dent. The car was totalled because of frame warping, I wish it could have been fixed so I could continue driving the little go-kart car. Now I don't mean to knock on the fact that it feels like a go-kart. I love it. I'd trade the car I have now for another accent (a new accent SR to be precise
).
So anyways on to my point, since I lost the car I saved up and bought another car. What car? an '66 Chevrolet Impala 4-Door. Great big change for my driving experience. I bought the car last year in 2003 and last summer I just rebuilt a 350c.i. chevy gen 1 v8 with performance upgrades and dropped it in with the old powerglide transmission and higher stall torque converter.
What i'm trying to say is, I think I'm coming back and I would love to get back into posting into this forum since I have some engine building experience and basic car knowledge that goes all around the gamut. Before I was just a know-nothing passenger who drove a car. Now I feel confident enough to try and understand a turbo >_> :lol:
And I'm supposedly going to be helping design a new grill for the 05 accent with a friend who's gotten tired of all the buh'fugly grills thats on EVERYCAR out there. Iono. I miss my Accent and thats all I have to say.
