Lord Fellatio Nelson 6,197 Posted June 2, 2017 28 minutes ago, charon said: ? So it weighed 2 tonnes? Keep it... I doubt that. Modern cars weigh shit loads because of all the safety zones and other such stuff in them. That metal bodied Corvette would probably have weighed as much as a MK1 Cortina. Fibreglass bodies arent as light as people think, I should know, Ive owned 6 Scimitars and they are fibreglass. My Lotus Excel is also fibreglass and that bastard has had my nuts hit my ankles as ive pushed it into the garage!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
charon 4,942 Posted June 2, 2017 A shitty fiesta is over a tonne. I mind that. A steel bodied motor,,,, no reason for seatbelts. You ain't walking away, well ever again. 6 scimitars Lol. No wonder Zyklon thought you were OFTW... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
