I also live in a state with one of the highest insurance rates in the nation though, thanks to the crappy "no fault" insurance.

Ouch, I'm glad that hasn't been instated here.

Hey Kiki...do you have classic car insurance on your charger? I was thinking about if for my '75 BMW but heard they only allow you to drive a certain amount of miles per year or something? Is that true?

That's true. I believe it is called vintage car insurance in some companies. I think the # of miles down here is something like 10k a year.

yes but then again I don't drive the car in the winter at all, and mostly just on nice weekends on the warm weather, which in MI, is basically from about May to September. The rest of teh year is Winter.
I can easily keep that car under 10K miles/year.. especially with a 500cid motor and 254/268 cam on 3.55 gears. I get around 8 to 10MPG if I drive gently, and that's on 94 octane gas, or 100 octane plane fuel running 11:1 compression.

It's not the sort of car you want to drive everywhere.

Hmmmmm...i dont know how many miles i drive in my car per year. Sure she only gets about 16-18mpg out of a 4 cylinder (due to 292 cam, open exhaust, bigger carb, 9.5:1 comp ratio) but i cant not drive my car. She's my baby!!! I dont kno...i might have to look into it some more.

Open exhaust on your daily driver!?

Well...i run a "muffler". Its a glass pack muffler...but all the internals are gone. So it looks legal to the person inspecting it.

I have open headers at present, but going to Hooker super comp headers, 2.25x35" primaries, 3.5x10" collector to a 3.5" to 3" stepped X pipe, then through a pair of those huge 20" super turbo mufflers and out.

Car will be pretty quiet, and throaty at idle and cruising.. especially for a 3600+ pound street car in the low 11s.

Low 11's huh? thats awesome kiki. Im not a big drag racing fan but can appreciate an 11 second street car.
