Sounds like the 265 Hemi Charger I had when I was eighteen... :eek: 2- barrel 265 Hemi, 500 Holley, E49 cam and extractors, Lots of head work, about 11:1 compression...used to wipe V8's easily... :p

Used to burn $45 to $50 a week of fuel...when petrol was 34 cents a liter...mostly running around after this shiela I was going out with...ended up being cheaper to marry her and have her in the same house... :D

Still got the wife...haven't got the Charger....not sure which is the better deal there.... :eek:
Good thing she doesn't read this.... :hit:

Polar bears are actually black. Their fur is clear, however the light is refracted making it appear white. There, now you know everything :thumbsup:

Pajero LWB Wagon, Power/economy what's that ???
If you have a lisp there are many words that rhyme with month. As in "you whecked my car you C...th"
Zebras also have striped skin and the Gold fish memory span was proven incorrect in a study earlier this year.
Very enjoyable trivia.

If a polar bears fur was black then why is it white at the zoos and stuff?

Read it again, Skin is black, Fur is clear. Clear picks up the light.

Just like the ocean being clear, it picks up its blue from the colour of the sky.
