Thanks man now I just cant wait to take her muddin a little bit...

 

Congrat's on getting the license. Just remember the object when driving is to get from point A to point B safely and alway's use common sense driving in bad weather. Don't be scared to slow down a bit, alway's use your mirror's and signal when turning or changing lanes. Take pride in being a good driver and setting a good example on the highway.

 

So, the guy gets in with his clipboard and as I start to take off he says,
"Aren't you going to put on your seatbelt?"
I said, "Uh, this car doesn't have seatbelts" and the guy starts writing.
Seatbelts were optional equipment in a 1960 Plymouth Belvedere.

So, I'm going down the road and the guy asks, "How fast are you going?"
I let go of my 10-2 grip and start banging on the dashboard to get the speedometer rolling, it was a bunch of little boxes that filled up red, kind of like a barber pole was laying on it side and rolled, filling up the boxes one at at a time behind the panel.
I said, "Uh, I'm not really sure how fast."
Again with more writing he does.

We get downtown and I have to parallel park.
My tongue is hanging out like Michael Jordan as I select the transmission buttons on the dash, like someone buying something out of a vending machine. If the button isn't all the way in the car doesn't move. The tension is immense like when you are watching to see if that moonpie will drop all the way from B - 5.

He asked me if this was my car and I said 'No sir.'
and he said, "You're a lucky man."

And he passed me, I guess out of pity.

 

ahh raoul...always get a good laugh from your posts!

 

It ain't so funny when your sixteen. At the time I was horrified.

 

sound like it was!

 

^ poor kid LOL

 

I took my test in my truck. Scariest thing was when I went to parallel park. Truck barely fit in the space to park in. I was kind of mad because I was trying to get close to the curb and even amount of space between the front and back of the truck with the cones. The guy never got out and looked, he never even looked out the window. All I would of had to do was back up and say I was done and he wouldn't have known either way since he wasn't paying attention.

 

i tested in my truck too...82 f250 single cab long bed 351 no mufflers or cats 4 speed manual that didnt go into reverse very well 4x4 on 37s

smoked like hell when it started (burnt oil) guy asked "is that normal" "the smoke? ohh yea about a quart a day" driving down the road "is it suppose to shake this bad?" "oh yea, i dont even notice anymore"..."is this thing loud enough" "well it cant get much louder hahaha " (got a ticket for no mufflers) then onto the parallel parking "umm dude..this thing doesnt go into reverse very well" "then you will fail"

in the middle of downtown with traffic stopped here i am trying to parallel park "stop honking! (gear grinds) im almost there!!! (grinds again) ill just slowly roll into the spot..truck stops rolling (gear grinds..finally into reverse) alright! did i pass" "sadly yes"

 

haha to raoul and f150fella08 I like those. I as well took it in my truck but mine is an 01...oh and on a side note I got the bullet installed today she is sounding good now.
