78 Celica

No friggin way, the Liftback or Fastback??

I had the tan Liftback. Was handed down the car but the body was shot, engine and tranny were good. Found an exact match at the Mexican junk yard on albemarle and swapped motor and tranny. Drove it for 3 years.

1978 Old Cutlass

Pop had a 5 liter v6 dropped in it. Was hilarious pulling up to gangsta wannabies in their souped up low riders and leaving their asses in the dust.

my mom had a 78 Cutlass but didn't keep long enough so I could drive it. Sharp little vehicle.

too funny

Yeah I pimped the radio out in mine too (2, 6" door speakers, 6x9's in the back and 2 10" subs in the hatch), had a sweet portable CD player with tape adapter!!! It had 4 second skip protection!!!

oddly enough my second car was a blacked out 82 Supra

dude, the Supra was THE car I wanted while in high school. Loved that unique spoiler.

I wanted a white or black one. Girl I dated, who was capt of the cheerleaders and eventual home coming queen didn't like that car. Then later on she dated this singer in a band and homey had a red Supra. It was a double kick in the balls for me.

Damn, she didn't know what she wanted.

Yeah, Supras are STILL the poo if you ask me. I still have my 87 in the garage, take it out on the weekends, love that car.

I sold that 82 to a coworkers son for $500 trying to help him out, and he wrecked the damn thing a week later. dumbass

When I was stationed in California in '83 I had a 76 liftback - once the most fun cars I've ever owned...I'll have to dig up a pic of it

yeah, nothing will teach you patience like running vacuum lines for a carburetor

lol

That big tank had sooooo much room under the hood, it was a joy to work on.

Sucker had auto seats and windows, damn big bench moving back and forth with fixed shoulder belt, almost decapitated the high school girlfriend.

The radio aerial was in the window, and when those big metal wipers went back and forth it killed the reception.

Good times.

      Edge Rushers

      By mrcompletely11 · Posted

      Super raw, not sure he is worth a top 10 pick.  Primary a pass rusher.  A bit like Burns, very fast athletic but doesnt always follow the play.  His highlights look good but when you watch him play you can see he is just raw and needs to develop

      Personally, I am not sold on Bryce yet--and I do not think anyone is saying they are, but I don't think Ward is on table when we draft anyway.  Not even sure if I would rather have him than one of the later QBs.  I see a lot of potential in Allar, Nussmeire, Rourke, and even Hamilton from Ohio State--Milroe is intriguing, but I am not sure he is an NFL QB.  Ewers is that sleeper who falls and becomes a solid starter. I think that we sign a veteran who has played and we draft one of these project QBs. To your point:  With that in mind, I think you have to take QB off the table in round 1, and if Bryce can string 4-5 games like KC together, we still need to draft a QB in round three or so---I really think Rourke is a great fit for this offense--he is accurate and gets the ball out quickly---he impressed me vs OSU.   Reason?  I think we may have a tough decision to make about Bryce in 2 years--will he be worth $60m?  That decision is a lot easier if you have been grooming a backup for 2 years who can play. In round 1: I am hoping for PSU's edge Abdul Carter In round 2:  I would like to see us grab a DT who can rush the passer.  Walter Nolen of Ole Miss is versatile and a bit raw. I think he could be an excellent complement to Brown. In round 3:  I would love ILB Danny Stutsman from Oklahoma.  He is a beast. With 11 picks, I would package our 4th rounders to move up into the third round and take a QB.  At the moment, I think Rourke is trending upward and he has the skills Canales seems to want in a QB.  Quick processor, quick release. I would use the fifth rounders on OL.  I know that I left out WR--however, we are getting Thielen back, XL will be improved, Coker will be improved, and Moore has been surprisingly good.  Sanders (TE) has been more than expected in the passing game.  I think we need D more than WR, and maybe we can get a veteran WR to sign or find a hidden gem late.

      Wouldn't be surprised if he starts a couple Jets games this year with the way the Rodgers thing is going. Giants fans are pissed they didn't keep him lol. He might actually have a little bit of a market.
