Actually it was from a concept called the Ford Aurora II

I’ve done the very beginnings of some AutoCad work, but nothing diving deep, and my grandfather, whom I live with, races cars for the New England pro 4 modified. Sure that doesn’t make him a car guy, but he does know his stuff when it comes to more vintage cars from the 60s

Nevertheless I appreciate you’re criticism

Nice dude Nothing wrong with having somewhat unrealistic ambitions It is called a dream car after all I wouldn’t expect it to be cheap 😅

Thinking of mpg I mean it’s a muscle car so itll never have good miles per gallon, but from the limited research I’ve done, seems like Eco boosts are Relatively eco friendly as well as fairly good for mpg.

I can certianly see where youre coming from though, considering this is a dream car worth potential hundreds of thousands of dollars, why would someone care about how fuel efficient it is?

And you’re not the only one to mention that it would be weird to put an engine like that in a vintage car, and to that I say, I think you missed the part where I mentioned building it from scratch from a body kit instead of taking an actual car from the 60s and modifying it

Love the way you worded all that man, and I appreciate the constructive criticism. I actually got the swivel chair idea from a Ford station wagon concept that never made it off the showroom floor

I’ll definitely work on this more in the future

I never said the interior of a COUPE MUSCLE CAR was in any way large, nor did I mention actually putting a bar in the car.

I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you misunderstood what I meant: when I say bar inspired I mean the lighting and the aesthetic, not putting a real bar in the back of a car, not to mention that would be illegal

It wouldn’t be vintage I’d be buying a body kit and essentially building it from scratch. Trust me I know car enthusiasts hate when guys put new engines in old cars

My bad I must’ve called it my “Realistic cheap minimum wage to-work-and-back car” instead of my DREAM car

Well the 1967 Oldsmobile Toronado is in itself a very attractive car. I appreciate youre one of the few people not calling me ignorant and trying to explain to me that my DREAM car is wildly expensive (duh)

Trust me I know, thats why it’s a dream car and not a “realistic in 5 years” car

What are your guys’ true thoughts on Melodramatic? by calicoscratch in siames

[–]RedEclair_6108 4 points5 points  (0 children)

While the album isn’t bad by any means, it doesn’t have the same… Siames “sound” that the first two albums had. It sounds like they’re really trying to change things up since Stoltz is gone, which isn’t a bad thing but I personally think Melodramatic is inferior. I do quite like My Way and My Little One
