    Bingo. The only thing I don't agree with is the freedom of speech. This is a privately owned website. Freedom of speech here goes about as far as the rules allows.

    Thought I would add pictures of the subframes I had made and installed for a total of $200 locally.

    Those look pretty good. My South Side ones fit fairly well and were rectangular steel stock as well.

    Mine have some steel plates to "shim" them (fulled welded all the way around) which allows them to sit snug against the body. From the side, this is all you see.

    And again I ask, what then is the point of putting all that $#!t on a car if it's "not going to be raced"? I still haven't gotten a logical answer to that one...

    This was my dad's sub frame connectors... :biglaugh: It was mostly a street car and very rarely saw a drag strip. He also narrowed the 9 inch rearend himself.

    My apologies. I just didn't see any humor in it.

    I'm curious, why specifically mention "an MCCI member" in your sarcasm? Why the dig? I read Dave's statement as a joke from the getgo. :huh:

    Well...the dig is that I see more and more MCCI members saying unconstructive things and acting glorified by the logo. Of course it may be due to the fact that there are alot of MCCI members, some witty and some passive. I'm just an outsider looking in and glad i'm out. But who cares what i'm glad about, right?
