Title: I made a decision :(
Post by: Mike71 on May 03, 2004, 10:05:39 AM
looks the zuki modding will take a back seat to a 1971 camaro split bumper that ill be buying in the next few months..im keeping the zuki to drive to work and while the camaro is having down time

but i will mod the zuki as i have money just wont be slapping a turbo on it or anyhting serious till probably mid next year...im stayin on zukiworld though =)

Thats not a bad idea, i know the mods for my zuki are cuttin down, i put my new tires on and love it, i may do a body lift in it but all thats planned is windows tinted, Deck, and put my subs in for now, i love it how it is.

hehe thats what everyone tells me, im gonna get a sport quad which is faster than my kick ;D i cant wait till i get it, im thinkin of a Yamaha Raptor or a warrior or soemthing, i was also thinkin of a suzuki 400cc sport bike, the name escapes me right now but its verry nice as well.i want a sport quad with reverse, I dunno if you guys know much about them but its hard to fidn a nice sport quad that has reverse, so hopefully by the end of summer there will be one being towed behind my zuk! ;D

i think the zuki one is called LTZ 400

The 69 model ran into 1970...mid-year they introduced the 'new' 70 Camaro which was dubbed a 70 and a half because of its late release. Ford did the same with the Mustang...it was a 64 and a half when first released in mid 64.

And yes you could get split bumper Camaros in 71  8)

well i know the mustang because it was a totaly new car in 64 but i didnt think they would do the same for a car already running

and if u ask some people ford never had a 64 1/2 mustang lol

They didn't have a lot of choice as the production run of 69's went right into 70, then the new one came out...they couldn't call it a 71 because then a year would have been missing...hence the 70.5 ;)

My first HOTROD was a 69 Plymouth GTX with a 440. But if I kept that I would have never got into 4x4s and never ended up with my Tracker  today. ;D
Everything happens for a Reason. I hope ;D
