Mopar

I originally wasn't sure I'd be able to give the trucks of Mega Speed a post of their own but once I got through all of the photos it only made sense to dedicate the second part of the coverage to trucks. I'm not sure how the truck class compared to last year because they were not very centralized this year and by the time I left I was still finding new ones.

Most people (in North America) remember the K car for the simple fact that they were everywhere for awhile. Personally I knew someone who's dad drove a sky blue one and treated it like gold. He washed it every weekend and stored it in the winter.

Ok Mopar fans you can ease up on the hate encouraging emails because I am finally doing the 'turbo dodge' Theme Tuesday many of you have requested. While Dodge has a habit of turbo charging random vehicles their owners are generally not down to to put them on the ground.

The requested 'Turbo Dodge' Theme Tuesday has honestly been one of the most challenging I have tried to pull together because I am trying to not just post the obvious SRT-4 or fudge the lines by posting only Conquests (which are really Mitsubishis anyway). In my search for ground scraping Dodge Omnis and Daytonas I stumbled upon this SRT-4 swapped Chrysler Town and Country that is completely stock inside and out other than the drive train.

Amazed, and confused. Both of those words describe my initial reaction to seeing a rear wheel drive, supercharged v8 powered, Chrylser Intrepid. I guess its not all together ridiculous.Intrepids can't be worth all that much these days and they do happen to have very large engine bays. I've also came to learn that the exhaust tunnel can double for a drive shaft tunnel provided you route the exhaust elsewhere.

So my friend Josh is to thank blame for today's Theme Tuesday. I actually had a different one 90% complete then we got talking about the Fast and The Furious franchise and next thing you know I am spending my lunch hour collecting images of the cars I liked from all of the movies. This list is probably a little different than Josh thought it would turn out because my 'classic American cars are awesome' bias is clearly showing for a good portion of this post.

The last round of CSCS passing means that a lot of the cars in today's post will be tucked away for the winter very soon. A few might make their way to Importfest Montreal but the rest will either be converted back to winter mode, stored, or go under the knife for rebuilds. With that in mind I made sure to do a few laps of the show and shine Sunday just to make sure I got some photos of some of the more attention grabbing cars

Last night after sitting down at the computer post a relaxing long weekend I realized that I was at the now familiar point where I have a few Theme Tuesday ideas started (around 6-8 photos) but not too many at, or near enough to, the point of completion. Thankfully I've had this one waiting in my draft status for a bit and six plus months since the last 'Pictures With Attitude' (aka awesome photos) it was time for this draft to grow up and become a real post. Enjoy the latest edition of awesome from all over the web.

It's been awhile since I've posted something questionable/'too each their own' looking in a WTF Friday post so here is an... interesting truck I came across on s10 forum. I'm fairly sure the owner of this truck would vomit at the cars I normally post here as it is quite obvious the thought patterns of he or she and myself when it comes to car modifications do not come anywhere close to matching up.

After the Indy on Saturday my Steve and I swung by my place grilled some burgers, picked up our better halves, and rolled out to the Street Classics Cruise in at Canadian Tire #70. This was the first one of these events I had been to in 2011, and the first I had been to in quite some time where the forecast was great the entire day.

Last weekend I went my second show at the Powerade Center in Brampton (the first being Vagkraft in 2009) which was the Too Fast Custom Car Show put on by SLC Productions and Too Fast motors. This was my first 'Heat The Street' show of the year (their 7th in total) so I wasn't exactly sure what to expect in regards to turnout number and quality of cars. Upon arrival I was pleasantly surprised on both counts, many of the usual suspects came out to enjoy the sun along with a few people and cars I had not seen in awhile.

Car washes are fun when you're young, but frankly, if you're out of the training diapers it's about as boring as it gets when it comes to cars. Unless of course, there are women in wet, skimpy clothes bending over to polish your dirty body. And what makes it even more special and makes us feel a lot less guilty for wanting to partake, is when companies do these car washes for charity! (Plus our significant other can't get as mad). (Potentially NSFW, you've been warned :P)
