I admit though, I am originally a Dragon Green guy. My first (RIP) VX was a Dragon but she met her tragic end in a head on collision. Unfortunately, I could find no other Dragon to replace her so I had to go to the dark side and be fitted with an Ebony.

Hahahahahaha.......
^hahahahaha, nice!
Yeah my favorite scene of all the "new" Star Wars is still the Pod-racing scene, and the N64 video game 'PodRacer' was classic, I loved it but hated the last level, it was so hard to stay on the upper level!
99 Ebony, #1979, 164k,, too dirty to post pics of right now.
I was wondering if anyone would pick up on that. It's one of my favorite movies of all time, at least as far as stupidly memorable quotes go. That and Princess Bride. And Pee Wee's Big Adventure. All sadly overlooked for Best Picture Oscars.
And back on topic:
I bought my Ebony VX a couple of years ago, after owning an Ironman VX for a couple of years. These threads ("Ebony rules!") are fun, but the truth is that ALL VXs look cool, and every time I see a Proton or a Firefox or a Dragon etc etc, I always love them. I like the idea of winning the lottery and collecting one of each color.
Incidentally, I DID win the lottery last week, but sadly it was just a $6.00 scratch-n-win ticket. I cannot buy any extra VXs, but I can get 3 gallons of gas! That's, like, 45 miles of free driving!!
WOOOOO-Hooo...um...hoo...um..never mind.
Here's mine...

No butt bitin' here t4b. I think I've told more than a few fellow VXers that I will own a Foxfire one day. I never said that I was going to get rid of Vicki, but it would sure be nice to add a rosy sister next to her in the garage.
I'll even say it again; I LOVE that color.:biggringr
That being said, Ebony is still the fastest color. Why do you think they made the Blackbird's Ebony? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SR-71_Blackbird
Oooo, you may have just given me an idea for a personalized plate---EBNYFRK
Just a few days "new"

Yes, the dark side rules.
I only just now saw T4B's post here....
Is he lurking the Ebony thread again? Ebony envy? It's ok. Really. Just ask. One of us will take you for a ride. :p
I can't believe I never opened this thread! I belong to the Black Pack even!

Oops, wrong one!

Ahh, there we go...
Any color, so long as it's Black. 0177 is indeed an Ebony.....http://www.vehicross.info/gallery/da...s/IMG_1909.JPGhttp://www.vehicross.info/gallery/da...s/IMG_0189.JPGhttp://www.vehicross.info/gallery/da...s/IMG_1209.JPG
My DD and my weekender are black. I seriously should just start wearing all black and and being a bad-mo-fo.

I would love to paint a room all black and hang a bunch of skulls up in it. :evil:

Bart,
How 'bout the interior of the falcon?
Some custom black leather seats with embossed/stitched white skulls would be sick.....
Actually, when I get to that point, I think I am going to keep it really simple, keeping with the 'spirit' of the Mad Max car. Some of the guys who have made replicas go for a RIDICULOUSLY exact movie car, but in my case I am going to do up the body like the movie car, but there will be a lot of little things that are not exact. Particularly in the interior of the car. I am going to install 2 new seats to my liking. My car will retain the XC dash, whereas the movie car had the XB dash with lots of little things attached for the movie, none of which mine will have in the end. As for other cosmetic details inside the car, there will be none. No head liner, no door skins, no carpet. I am going to Herculiner the floor boards and simply have the rest of the metal inside painted with the car. My long term goal will be to use the "gas tanks" in the back of the car as my audio system. One tank will house the sub box and the other will have some sort of door that contains all of the audio gear. Of course, this is all end product stuff that is just a thought in my head at this point. The whole project is gonna take several years to complete, which sucks. Right now I am working on the preliminary steps to getting the 2.8 in my Trooper swapped for a 3.4, all while trying to get my shop outfitted. As per usual, the only thing stopping me from balls-to-the-wall work on my projects is money. :(

It ain't easy being a pimp.

USMC,
Don't listen to those guys.....they just have Ebony envy :rolleyes: (it is the fastest color) and they're trying to find something to criticize. If you like the hood insert, then by all means rock the red.
Welcome to the dark side.:thumbup:
Hey, since you seem to have a theme going, why don't you paint the fangs red too???
And get a front skid plate from Rowhard and do it proud like our friend in AZ...

If you like it...then just go with it.
Checking in, ladies and gentlemen...
I hope to have a pic on this page soon enough! :)
