What. A. Floozie.

You know how California women are. They get around. It's like that village bicycle, you know? Everyone has had a ride. Speaking of rides, lets look at the village bicycle of the West Coast.



Meet the 1989 Chrysler Conquest TSi currently owned now by one Mario Zumbo. She's quite the hooker of car.



You might be asking yourself, why does this beauty of a fiji blue car deserve to be called a slut? Easy. She's been passed around friends more often than a football is in a game of tag team. It's life of modifications started out with the SQC member Mech, who sold it to Jason, who sold it to Trevor, who sold it to Mario now. Friendship is a beautiful thing. Speaking of beautiful though, check out the list of modifications it has.

-89 Conquest Fiji blue SHP 97k Miles
-KDM full hard pipe kit.
-KDM 3 inch exhaust with flew pipe
-KDM modified intercooler

-Restored 83 Tail Lights. Taken Apart, Cleaned, painted, and re-glued
- GReddy front strut bar
- Mookeeh Full-body coilovers, ST front and rear sway bars



I personally dig the purple valve cover. It adds a taste of insane class. The interior of the car is relatively stock, save for a Nardi steering wheel, supplemental gauges to keep an eye on all important life works of the engine, and a head unit. Check out the AC control relocation.



With a car so low though, some of you may be wondering how the airdam is going to fare. Well, it's well known amongst Starion/Conquest owners that at stock ride height, your airdam is at significant risk of getting flat out annihilated. So, how do you THINK that airdam did?



One week after the photos were taken, a pothole decided to play tag. Looks like it won. Remember the slammed flat body from the earlier post? Guess where this demolished air dam is going to be resurrected? That's just how this club rolls.

Speaking of rolling, I've always liked this closing shot of the friends- Jason in a boosted Dodge D-50, the fiji, and Scotty's palermo painted white Starion ( you are still going to the deepest level of hell for doing that )




I wonder how Mario feel's knowing that his Princess Peach had been around the block.
