i just experienced the coolest thing ever!

so im out pushing carts at the redners in kenhorst/reading PA, where i work. i look across into the sears parking lot and see this lowered, tubbed out c10 shortbed. me and the guy i was working with stood out there for like 20 minutes waiting for someone to start it. soon enough a guy comes out and starts it up. it was the nicest sounding full exhaust on a c10 i ever heard. he drove by us, its was a nice low deep rumble. soooo nice! everyone else in the redners lot was looking at it too. unfortunatly i didnt have my phone on me so i couldnt snap a picture

btw, saying it was the coolest thing ever, is just an exaggeration.

anyone else have any similar stories?

My neighbor has a bright yellow 76 blazer with a 427 engine and huge tires out back, you can here him coming down the street usually in 2gear because its cammed up. the rumble shakes every house on the block.

Re: i just experienced the coolest thing ever!

A good friend of mine lives down the road from superformance (they build shelby kit cars) and they test drive them by his house all the time. That is the best sound in the world when one of those come by with gas pedal to the floor.

Well, we all know that is the best but don't think we can discuss that subject on this site. I think they want it family friendly around here.

Re: i just experienced the coolest thing ever!

i know this is a trck forum, but theres another guy in my hood that has a 03 mustang gt that was his daily then it went in the garage and i just drove by and saw that he had the entire car torn down and was building some kind of pro street monster with a blower and nos and all kinds of goodies, no pics though. Also my dad has a 01 z06 vette with a lingenfilter motor and a rockland standard gear 1200hp rated 6 speed with 3.90's in the rear. it thumps hard and eats up the nitro drag radials it makes 521 rwhp n/a
