| I am a pilot. I have my civilian commercial and multi-IFR licences. After I finished flight college, job opportunities were very limited so I joined the Canadian Air Force. This year the market is booming again. Regional airlines like northwestern and air canada Jazz are hiring massively. But I really don't regret joining the Canadian Forces, it is awesome. I'm currently posted at 439 sqn at 3 Wing Bagotville, Qc while waiting to go on my next course. It's a search and rescue sqn with 3 Griffon (Bell 412) helicopters. It serves a combat support role as 3 Wing is one of the only 2 in Canada with CF-18 fighters. If the fighter pilot ejects, a helicopter will be immediately dispatched to retrieve him. Yes, the girl on the regal is my girlfriend of 5 years. She drives a 98 buick regal GS (only has a swiss cheesed airbox and a k&n panel). Sorry, she's no longer a blonde. This is her natural hair colour.   Dave, awesome 68 riviera. That is my favourite year! |

| Heres my old cars, I no longer own them, but one day, I plan to get another 81' . The Monte Carlo on the other hand is the equivilent of a priest who teaches you all the secrets of religion, the location of the rest of the dead sea scrolls, and the true meaning of life.......and then rapes you in the ass.....its a metaphor for practicing advanced engine tuning, drifting, and 140 mph nitrous runs. and then getting over charged on a car that isnt worth $13,000 because there was never anything reported to carfax about whatever huge accident it was in prior to me buying it, and the local police just hatin....... well not even them really, it was the prosecutor that hated me cuz I made him look so dumb because the cops were so dumb....oh the "other" things I got away with. Thats not me in the picture, thats my Graduated UTI accomplice who works at Lexus...the same one who helped me pull the 3800, put the new one back in, and helped me get it started.       |

| The 3.9L sucks ballz, It was cool for about a week. I origionally wanted a cobalt ss or a g6 gtp but the dealership was gay, and it was my first time buying from a big dealerhip, never again!!!! They managed to sell me the monte and after I popped the hood and looked underneith, I figured what the hell....Ill put nitrous or a turbo on it and itll be a fast sleeper. Not to mention I planned on fµ©k with every little parameter on the PCM...and i did. It was kinda of like a rental car for a couple months coupled with schooling you cant get anywhere!!!! By the time it was repo'd, I had probably sprayed at least 20x 10 lb bottles on it at about a 45-50 wet shot. The pistons were chipped and and the interior was shot to $h!† mostly the passenger seat from me picking up my custom 3800 from the engine shop and a bolt protruding off the cylinder went right through the seat. I also played around with E-85 for a while....it sucks in N/A cars, but there is no KR whatso ever, I cant wait to see what itl do in My riv!!!  |

| pwmin, in this pic of the Cobalt the headlights look aftermarket. I'm a sucker for the aluminum can-style headlights. Nice color too. Glad to see someone's embitious enough not to choose silver or black  The firebird/TransAm? looks good with the darked tails, that model really lends itself perfectly to that mod. _________________  2005 Chrysler Crossfire Limited_Graphite w/ black 27k miles 1995 Buick Riviera Racera_Classic Green ,Drk Jade Interior:145k miles Stock 1993 "MicroMachine" Mazda MX-5 Miata: Red w/ Black 50k mil |

| rivman. that sucks. the 60degree v-6's are usually great engines and should be able to take way more than a 50 shot (esp the pushrod versions)...weird. i drove a g6 gtp coupe w/ the 3900 and MU9/F40 6-speed when i bought my cobalt and it just didnt seem to have enough for me. i would really like one with the 3.6 DOHC now thats available. andy. thanks. those are actually stockers. i want to get an extra set sometime to tear apart and paint the chrome orange or black. i have loved that sorta color since the first time i saw it and always wanted something in that color. kinda cool that the ss/sc and that color are discontinued as of 08. the black one is a camaro sport coupe. pretty much a base model, but i did a decent 350 swap into it, so it runs pretty good. i have headlight covers, too and it looks sick with them all on, but i get so much $h!† from cops that i dont roll around with either anymore. they dont like the 5% tint either, lol, but it doesnt get driven much. owned it for 10 years and the blazer for 9. anyway, enough about me. _________________ 98 Riviera L67/4T65E-HD (SOLD  ) 06 Cobalt LSJ/FGP35 w/ G85 86 Camaro Carb'd 400/4L60 87 1500 350/4-speed |

| The 50 shot was the biggest jet I had. Otherwise, I would have gone crazy. |

| Notice the dual exhaust in picture 3. It sounded so good and the best part is it sounded like a v8 and not a rice burner.... I plan on putting the same setup on the rivi once I get around to it... |
