    Ragnarok is a battle that brought the end of the previous world in Norse mythology. After that happened, the world was flooded for a while and the 2 humans started over after the floods subsided.
    That's not the whole story, but, while it's an interesting story, it's way too complicated (and off topic) to explain it all here. Plus I'm probably not the best person to do the explaining.

      the purple nurple Camaro (the 4th gen) does not translate that well tp the Pro Street look because it's doomed to suffer the "wheels look too far in" fate. Maybe they'd look beyyer with some additional radius to the rear wheel wells. They don't turn my crank.

        Yikes.

        The Bandit TA is great except for tire placement. Could be lower, too. I call T-top violation, though.

          Double yikes on the blown car.

            This is a '71 Vega a good friend of mine built and owned. He sold it a couple years ago, but I think it was great. No loud paintjob, the right stance with everything tucked up nicely under the car (those are the big Mickeys and a 9" under there), and just plain cool. The reaction from people when this thing drove by was like you were riding an elephant through town. The double takes, stares and finger pointing were pretty cool.

              Early Vegas are nice.

              Mean looking piece!

                  This car is still aorund, saw it the other night..... he haunts the local cruise spots pretty often, this is a beautifuly built car, and many changes have been made since this pic was taken, it sits lower now...has flames...and is still friggin bitchin'

                      Yeah, now that you mention it, they did sit in quite a bit. Here's a pic of the tires from the back and the second pic should give you an idea of how long ago these were taken. LOL! Impressive shine on my '73 Mustang's hood though. ;)

                        As for the hood, the car was not originally supercharged. He redid the engine over one winter and just went with the hood that was already on it. But I agree, a flat hood woulda made that engine look even more gigantic in that tiny Vega. It was a 355 with the 671 on top BTW.

                            LOL Those tires sure bother you..


                            This car is just plain hideous!!! Look at the shit on the side window frame area.. ??? Looks like something that should be on an SUV or some Mexicans car in Tijuana. That car just needs some C4 in the drivers seat.. I think I am NEVER gonna call my car "Pro Street" again..

                              I guess I would have to say that I like pro-street, what I don't like are the tubs and dubs cars that everyone seems to building right now. Ya know that 18" - 20" wheels on a muscle car there is only one size of tire that should be on a muscle car and that is 15".
