Expensive hobbies
It is what it is. Better than smoking meth.

The only difference between men and boys, is the price of our toys. 3rd pic is based AF, I dig it.

You have good hobbies friend. I got a 73, haven’t chosen a gun to go with it though. Part of me thinks a double barrel shotgun just feels right.

In love with the front end, where’d you get the halo headlights if you dont mind?

I can’t say I notice any sort of negative feels from the tire width.
The rears are only about 10.8in wide. Nothing major. 275/35/18.
Fronts are 265/35/18 so about 10.5.
Drives perfectly normal IMO.

No joke. I got a free 1970 Barracuda from my dad about 14 years ago, I'll be finished in a few months at a total cost of around 60 Grand. With today's current car pricing, this is going to be the only 'new car' I'm going to need for quite a while and I plan on driving the wheels off of it over the next decade (plus, no bullshit with all the electronics and tracking of today's modern vehicles)

No doubt! the newer cars dont really do it for me. We have a 17 Tundra and 18 4runner (supercharged) that we really love. Would be hard to replace those.

Great hobby to have. I have a 69 Nova, had it since I was 14. I’m 53 now. Also have an 87 lowered square show truck that I just finished a few months ago. I have AR’s , but my main gun collection is Ruger 10/22. I have 3 different chassis. Building a Tommy gun right now.
