Author Topic: Some cool stuff... *PICS* Wildfire532FB CAFords OG Member # 1482 posted                                 I went gold panning today with my friend from the gym. I found about 6 flakes of gold. Also something i didn't know but 5 miles up the street from me theres even more offroading trails and miners used to do hydrolic mining there. I didn't have my camera but it looked like i was on the moon. I'll take pics of it next time i cruise up there. I circled where the flakes are. I looked out my window a couple of minutes ago and i saw this thing flying around. Its HUGE. 4-5 inch wing span, never sen anything like it. Also my dad's Cobra when he reved it up sounded like the blow off valve wasn't closing all the way and making the engine surge and rock like crazy so he ordered a bigger blow off valve. It doesn't have any problems anymore and even runs better but its HELLA loud i have to cover my ears when he revs it. Its incredible. I'll make a video of it tomorrow. And last but not least on friday i had my passengerside floorpan welded into my 68. Also if you noticed i modified the seat mount. I cut them down 2 inches. We checked and my head would be touching the headliner. Thats why we did that.
